Flame Retardant CAT5e Data CablesFGD-CAT5e U/UTP4P24 FGD-CAT5e f/UTP4P24 FGD-CAT5e sf/UTP4P24/CAT5e.jpg)
APPLICATION Cat5E is a cable standard for Gigabit Ethernet and other network protocol, suitable for basic voice and data installations up to 100 MHz. In addition, these cables can be offered with copper wire braid armoured & flame retardant outer sheath, providing additional mechanically protection still maintaining the flexibility of the cable.

Note: Asterisk ** denotes that the standard compliance is optional, depending on the oxygen index of the PVC compound and the cable design. VOLTAGE RATING 60V CABLE CONSTRUCTION Conductors: 24AWG solid bare copper. Insulation: HDPE. Twinning: Two coloured insulated conductors twisted together to form a pair. Outer Sheath: Thermoplastic PVC compound. UV resistance, hydrocarbon resistance, oil resistance, anti rodent and anti termite properties can be offered as option. Compliance to fire performance standard (IEC 60332-1, IEC 60332-3, UL 1581, UL 1666 etc) depends on the oxygen index of the PVC compound and the overall cable design. LSPVC can also be provided upon request. Cat5E F/UTP: These cables have collective shielding of aluminium/Polyester tape with drain wire. Cat5E SF/UTP: These cables have double collective shieldings of aluminium/Polyester tape & copper wire braid. COLOUR CODE Insulation Colour: See technical information Outer sheath: Black or blue Physical AND THERMAL PROPERTIES Temperature range: -30°C ~ +75°C Minimum bending radius during installation (mobile state): 8 x Overall Diameter Minimum bending radius during operation (fixed state): 4 x Overall Diameterr Electrical Properties AWG |
