FAQs

What is the length and category rating of this StarTech.com network cable?
This StarTech.com network cable is a Category 5e (Cat5e) cable that measures 5 feet in length. It's designed for Fast Ethernet network connections and meets or exceeds all Cat5e specifications for reliable network performance.
What type of connectors does this cable use and what are their specifications?
The cable features RJ-45 male connectors on both ends. These connectors are made with 50-micron gold plating to ensure optimal conductivity and prevent signal loss from oxidation or corrosion. Each end includes molded strain relief to protect the connector termination points from damage due to sharp angle bends.
Is this cable compatible with Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
Yes, this cable fully supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications. It's constructed with 24 AWG copper wire, which provides sufficient power delivery capacity for PoE implementations while preventing issues like heat buildup or equipment damage that can occur with inferior copper-coated aluminum cables.
What certifications and standards does this cable meet?
The cable meets multiple certifications and standards including Type CM (UL), ETL, FCC, and TIA/EIA-568A compliance. It's also environmentally friendly with RoHS certification, ensuring it meets environmental safety standards.
What material is used for the cable's conductor and why is it important?
This cable uses 100% copper conductors, not copper-coated aluminum. This high-quality copper construction ensures superior performance, better power delivery for PoE applications, and improved reliability compared to cheaper aluminum-core alternatives.
