Description

Black Box C5UPSB-SLD-YL-12 CAT5E UTP Cable

Overview

The Black Box C5UPSB-SLD-YL-12 is a 1000-foot spool of Category 5e Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable. Its distinct yellow jacket is designed for clear visual identification in complex network installations, helping to prevent accidental disconnections or misconfigurations in environments like data centers, enterprise networks, or surveillance system backbones. This cable is engineered to support data transmission up to 1000 Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet) over distances up to 100 meters (328 feet), ensuring reliable performance for standard network devices and IP cameras.

Compatibility

This CAT5E UTP cable is compatible with all standard networking equipment that utilizes RJ45 connectors, including Gigabit Ethernet switches, routers, IP cameras, access control panels, and network video recorders (NVRs) from all major manufacturers. It meets the TIA/EIA-568-C.2 standard for Category 5e cabling, ensuring interoperability with existing CAT5e infrastructure and devices.

Installation Notes

The cable is supplied on a 1000-foot (305-meter) spool, suitable for bulk installation. For optimal performance and to maintain signal integrity, avoid sharp bends with a minimum bend radius of four times the cable diameter. Ensure proper termination using CAT5e-rated connectors and tools to achieve the specified 1000 Mbps data rates.
