Network Cable Solarix SXKD-5E-UTP-LSOH UTP CAT5E 100m Blue

The Solarix SXKD-5E-UTP-LSOH is a CAT5E unshielded twisted pair (UTP) installation cable supplied on a 100 m reel. It features LSOH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) outer sheath, 24 AWG copper conductors (0.51 mm), polyethylene insulation and a total cable diameter of 5.0 mm. Designed for horizontal structured cabling, the cable supports 1000Base-T and a nominal bandwidth of 100 MHz while meeting the requirements of TIA/EIA 568, EN 50173 and ISO 11801 for CAT5E installations.

Advantages

This Solarix CAT5E LSOH cable offers low smoke and low halogen emissions in case of fire, compliance with international structured cabling standards, and physical characteristics suitable for reliable Gigabit Ethernet operation. The cable provides clear signal propagation with an NVP of 68%, propagation delay of 535 ns/100 m and delay skew of 20 ns/100 m. Marked at 1 m intervals and available in a distinct blue color, it is suitable for professional horizontal cabling installations.

Suitable for

• Horizontal structured cabling in offices and commercial buildings
• Gigabit Ethernet networks (1000Base-T)
• Indoor installations requiring LSOH (low smoke, zero halogen) sheathing
• Patch panels, wall outlets and in-wall cabling runs

How to use

Install the Solarix SXKD-5E-UTP-LSOH cable as part of a structured cabling system following standard installation practices: route the cable along approved trays or conduits, avoid sharp bends and excessive tension, and maintain separation from high-voltage power lines. Terminate the cable on appropriate RJ45 connectors, keystone jacks or patch panels designed for solid 24 AWG conductors and test each link with a certified cable tester to verify performance to CAT5E parameters.

Recommendations

Use this LSOH cable in indoor environments where low smoke and low halogen emissions are required (for example, public buildings and data rooms). Do not expose the cable to temperatures below 0°C during installation, and perform professional termination and testing to ensure compliance with structured cabling standards.
