APPLICATION
Cat5E is a cable standard for Gigabit Ethernet and other network protocol, suitable for basic voice and data
installations up to 100 MHz. In addition, these cables can be offered with copper wire braid armoured & flame
retardant outer sheath, providing additional mechanically protection still maintaining the flexibility of the cable.
