The cable uses four twisted copper pairs inside a grey PVC jacket, terminated at both ends with RJ45 plugs fitted with moulded strain relief boots to protect the cable from damage at the connector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCAT5e (Category 5 enhanced) supports data rates up to 1000Mbps (1 gigabit per second) over runs up to 100 metres, making this 10m cable suitable for home networks, small offices and point-to-point connections between devices in the same room or across adjacent rooms. The unshielded twisted pair (UTP) construction reduces crosstalk between the internal wire pairs without requiring additional screening, keeping the cable diameter slim enough to route through standard desk grommets and along skirting boards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RJ45 connectors use a standard 8P8C configuration compatible with all Ethernet devices, including 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX (Fast Ethernet) and 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet) standards. The grey PVC jacket is rated IP20 for dry indoor use and the CCA (copper-clad aluminium) conductor construction balances cost with performance for typical home and office network loads. The cable ships in a 10m length, providing flexibility to route around furniture or between rooms without excess slack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10000 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConstruction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCCA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGrey\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP20\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/products_1059619_datasheet.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Specification Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat speeds does CAT5e support?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCAT5e supports up to 100Mbps (Fast Ethernet) as standard and can handle gigabit speeds up to 1000Mbps over cable runs up to 100 metres. This 10m cable length sits well within that range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this cable suitable for PoE devices?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cable is CAT5e compliant and will carry Power over Ethernet (PoE) for devices like IP cameras and VoIP phones. However, the CCA construction may result in slightly higher resistance than solid copper alternatives, so check device power requirements for high-wattage PoE+ applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this cable be used outdoors?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The IP20 rating and standard PVC jacket are designed for dry indoor use only. Outdoor installations require UV-resistant, weatherproof CAT5e or CAT6 cable rated for external environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is CCA construction?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCCA (copper-clad aluminium) uses aluminium wire cores plated with copper.
