DLAY Cable Cat5e: Fluke-Tested & Guaranteed Performance Ethernet Cables
Cat5e Ethernet Cable
A Cat5e Ethernet cable (Category 5e) is a foundational component for modern networking, specifically designed for high-performance data transmission. This versatile network cable comes primarily in two types: Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) Cat5e cable and Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) Cat5e cable. While both consist of multiple twisted copper wire pairs encased in a protective plastic sheath, STP versions offer added protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI).
The “Cat5e” designation itself signifies an enhanced specification within the Category 5 cabling standards, recognized by global industry associations. This standard, often found printed on the cable’s jacket, denotes its capability to reliably support Gigabit Ethernet speeds (1000 Mbps) over distances up to 100 meters, making it ideal for connecting a wide range of indoor devices in homes and businesses. This numbered classification is a key metric for measuring network cable performance across both North American and Chinese national wiring standards, ensuring consistent quality and compatibility.
Why Choose Cat5e Ethernet Cable
Our Cat5e cables meet ANSI/TIA 568.2-D standards with up to 350MHz bandwidth. This ensures stable, high-performance connections, surpassing typical requirements for Gigabit Ethernet, making them ideal for demanding data transmission.
Manufactured with RoHS-compliant materials, our cables are environmentally responsible. They are globally certified by UL, ETL, 3P, and China’s Ministry of Information Industry, guaranteeing the highest quality, safety, and peace of mind for your installations.
Available in CM, CMR, CMP, and LSOH jacket ratings for various fire safety needs. Our cables also feature Reelex’s patented “no-core” spool design, significantly improving handling, reducing tangles, and minimizing waste during deployment.
DLAY Cable offers a full spectrum of color options and extensive customization services. This flexibility ensures our Cat5e cables perfectly integrate into your specific projects, enhancing organization and compatibility for any networking application.
