Black Box C5U-R-SB-SLD-GY-50 CAT5E UTP SLD Sngls BT PVC Spec
Overview
The Black Box C5U-R-SB-SLD-GY-50 is a 50-foot, gray, Category 5e Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable. It features solid conductors and a PVC jacket, designed for reliable data transmission in structured cabling systems for surveillance, networking, and other IT infrastructure deployments. This cable is suitable for horizontal runs within walls or conduits where flexibility is not the primary requirement.
Compatibility
This CAT5E UTP cable is compatible with all standard networking equipment that utilizes RJ45 connectors, including switches, routers, patch panels, and network interface cards. It supports data rates up to 1000 Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet) and is backward compatible with CAT5 standards. It is suitable for use with various surveillance camera systems, including IP cameras that require a wired network connection, and general IT network infrastructure.
Installation Notes
This cable is intended for fixed installations. The solid conductor construction provides superior performance over stranded wire for longer runs but is less flexible. Ensure proper termination using compatible RJ45 connectors and a punch-down tool for patch panels or wall jacks. Avoid sharp bends exceeding a 4-inch radius to maintain signal integrity.
