Black Box C5S-P-SB-SLD-BL-05 CAT5E STP SLD Sngls BT PLN Spec
Overview
The Black Box C5S-P-SB-SLD-BL-05 is a shielded, plenum-rated CAT5E cable designed for robust data transmission in demanding network environments. Its construction minimizes electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, ensuring signal integrity for critical applications like IP surveillance, data networks, and building automation systems. The plenum rating makes it suitable for installation in air-handling spaces, meeting fire safety codes.
Compatibility
This cable is compatible with all standard networking equipment that utilizes RJ45 connectors, including managed and unmanaged switches, routers, IP cameras, NVRs, access control panels, and VoIP phones. It supports data rates up to 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet) and frequencies up to 500 MHz, making it suitable for high-bandwidth applications. Ensure your network infrastructure supports CAT5E or higher specifications for optimal performance.
Installation Notes
Plenum-rated cables require careful installation to maintain their fire-resistance properties. Avoid sharp bends that exceed the minimum bend radius (typically 4 times the cable diameter) to prevent internal conductor damage. Ensure proper grounding of the shield at termination points to maximize EMI protection. Use appropriate termination tools for RJ45 connectors to achieve reliable connections.
