Cat. 5e patch cable, 1 m. Robust and weather-resistant PVC coating. Diameter: AWG 26. Length: 1 m, black, round, suitable for outdoor use. The UV-resistant jacket of the Wirewin outdoor patch cable allows for worry-free use of the Cat. 5e cable outdoors. The conductors of the STP cable are made of pure copper. The data transmission speed is one gigabit per second. Foiled Unshielded Twisted Pair (F/UTP). In F/UTP cables, all twisted pairs are surrounded by a foil shield, meaning the overall shield consists of just one layer of foil. Shielded cables exhibit minimal impedance or reactance deviations compared to unshielded ones. The transmission parameters remain relatively constant even at high frequencies and are better than those of UTP cables. Category 5/5e. Cat 5 cables are used for signal transmission at high data rates. They are designed for operating frequencies up to 100 MHz and are suitable for Fast or Gigabit Ethernet. The designation 5e comes from a revision of the standards ISO11801 and EN50173, which made them compatible with Gigabit Ethernet. Cat-5e cables are backward compatible with traditional Cat-5 cables and are entirely sufficient for home users in most situations.
