Black Box C5S-R-SB-STR-GY-15 CAT5E STP STR Sngls BT PVC 15 FT
Overview
The Black Box C5S-R-SB-STR-GY-15 is a 15-foot, shielded Cat5e Ethernet cable designed for reliable data transmission in demanding environments. Its stranded copper conductors and PVC jacket make it suitable for fixed installations where flexibility and durability are required. This cable ensures consistent network connectivity for IP cameras, NVRs, and other network devices, preventing data loss and performance degradation common with unshielded or lower-grade cables.
Compatibility
This shielded Cat5e cable is compatible with all standard network devices requiring an RJ45 Ethernet connection, including but not limited to: Black Box IP cameras (e.g., the Black Box CVM-series), network video recorders (NVRs), managed and unmanaged network switches, and PoE injectors. It meets the requirements for 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet networks.
Installation Notes
Utilize this cable for fixed installations where a 15-foot length is sufficient. The stranded conductors offer better flexibility than solid core for initial routing, but it is not intended for dynamic flexing applications. Ensure proper termination with compatible RJ45 connectors and consider using cable management accessories to maintain neatness and prevent strain on the connectors.
