Catalogue 5e cables (CAT 5E)
Feature
• Cat 5e cables are used for structured cabling for computer networks such as Ethernet over twisted pair. Standard cabling offers performance to suitable for Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet.
• Cat 5e is also used to carry other signals such as phones and video. In some cases, multiple signals can be made on a single cable.
