DSIT CAT 5e U/UTP Network Cable, RJ45 Male to Male, 10m, Black, CCA

Supporting Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 1000 Mbps and a bandwidth of 100 MHz, this DSIT CAT 5e U/UTP network cable delivers reliable, high-performance connectivity for demanding LAN environments. Its 10-meter length provides flexibility for installations where devices are not in close proximity, while the unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) construction with copper-clad aluminum (CCA) conductors offers a cost-effective solution without compromising on standard-compliant performance.

Overview

The DSIT DC-C50-100 is a Category 5e patch cable designed for Ethernet networking. It features RJ45 male connectors on both ends, wired to the TIA/EIA-568B standard, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of network equipment including routers, switches, computers, and patch panels. The cable supports 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T applications, making it suitable for both legacy and modern networks. The black PVC jacket provides durability and flexibility, while the 24 AWG CCA conductors offer a balance between performance and affordability. With an outer diameter of approximately 5.0 to 5.5 mm, the cable is easy to route through cable management systems and tight spaces.
