Black Box C5U-R-SB-STR-GN-32 CAT5E UTP Stranded Bulk Cable
Overview
The Black Box C5U-R-SB-STR-GN-32 is a 328-foot (100-meter) spool of Category 5E Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) stranded bulk cable. Designed with a black PVC jacket, this cable is suitable for structured cabling deployments in commercial environments, including AV systems and data networks where flexibility and ease of termination are required. Its stranded core construction makes it ideal for patch cable applications or where the cable needs to bend frequently.
Compatibility
This cable is compatible with standard RJ45 connectors and is designed for use in networks supporting up to 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet) speeds. It meets the requirements for Category 5E performance, ensuring reliable data transmission for applications such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and network switches. Use with standard punch-down tools for termination into patch panels or wall plates.
Installation Notes
The 328-foot length is convenient for shorter runs or for creating custom-length patch cables. The stranded conductors offer better flexibility than solid conductors, simplifying installation in tight spaces or where the cable will be moved. Ensure proper termination techniques are followed to maintain signal integrity and meet Category 5E specifications. The black PVC jacket is suitable for indoor, non-plenum rated applications.
