Q-LANTEC Outdoor U/UTP Cat.5e Network Cable, PE Jacket, Dry Water-Blocking, 4-Pair, 24 AWG, 1 Gbps, Black, 100 m

The Q-LANTEC KIU5OUTS100Q is a high-performance outdoor U/UTP Cat.5e network cable designed for reliable data transmission in external environments. Featuring a durable PE (polyethylene) jacket and dry water-blocking technology, this cable ensures long-lasting performance against moisture and UV exposure. With 4-pair solid bare copper conductors and 24 AWG gauge, it supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 1 Gbps and a bandwidth of 100 MHz, making it ideal for structured cabling systems in industrial, commercial, and residential outdoor installations.

Advantages

This cable offers excellent signal integrity and minimal crosstalk thanks to its U/UTP (unshielded twisted pair) design. The PE jacket provides superior weather resistance, while the dry water-blocking tape prevents moisture ingress without the mess of gel. Compliant with TIA/EIA-568-C.2 and ISO/IEC 11801 standards, it ensures interoperability and future-proof networking. The CPR fire class Fca rating guarantees safety for fixed installations.
