Black Box GigaBase Premium CAT5e patch cables are constructed to exceed ANSI/TIA industry standards, ensuring optimal performance in bandwidth-intensive Fast Ethernet applications and guaranteeing the transmission of your voice, data, audio/video and/or PoE signals.
Tested to 350-MHz and 1-Gbps performance, these cables exceed the 100-MHz CAT5e spec, greatly reducing impedance, structural return loss and near-end crosstalk (NEXT).
A robust four-pair 24-AWG construction features 50-micron gold-plated contacts for superior conductivity, and LSZH rated jacketing that limits emission of smoke and corrosive gases in the event of a fire.
These cables have connectors designed for the insertion and extraction life of 750 cycles, making for an ultra-reliable solution that you can count on to perform.
Available in a variety of lengths and colors, Black Box’s GigaBase line of cabling gives you the flexibility to build your install however you want.
