UltraLAN gel-filled FTP Category 5e cable. The veins are made of copper, without the addition of aluminum. The cable is intended for outdoor use, with a high-quality PE coating and a gel to prevent longitudinal water penetration. It is shielded - pairs are covered with an aluminum foil. The outer diameter is 5.2 mm, while the vein diameter is approximately 0.48 mm (24AWG). The offered product stands out for its low resistance, which is about 10 Ohms per 100 meters. The cable can be successfully used for data transmission and power supply outdoors. It is sold in a carton containing approximately 305 meters of cable (1000 ft).

Category 5e

The cable meets the requirements of Category 5e, which is currently the most popular category of Ethernet cabling. It supports frequencies up to 100 MHz and is typically used in the 1000BASE-T (1 Gb/s) standard, but it can also handle the 2.5GBASE-T (2.5 Gb/s) standard.

Foiled Twisted Pair (F/UTP), formerly known as FTP, features additional shielding (denoted by "F" - from English "Foiled"). All cable conductors are surrounded by aluminum foil, which serves as electrical shielding. This type of protection guards the cable against external interference, including radio frequency interference, and provides an additional shield for connected devices against surges. It's important to remember that shielded cable must be properly grounded on both ends; improper installation of shielding can degrade transmission quality. The conductors are insulated in colored jackets, with the use of colors allowing for the identification of each conductor and the termination of RJ45 connectors.

The wires are made of 100% copper, without any aluminum alloy. The wire diameter is approximately 0.48 mm - 24AWG. Copper has better transmission properties than aluminum used in CCA cables. You will notice the difference especially when powering devices using PoE; copper wires have lower resistance, so you can power devices without worrying about significant voltage drops.

The offered product has a coating made of Polyethylene (PE). The cable is suitable for outdoor use, resistant to UV radiation, and protected against moisture ingress. The outer diameter is 5.2 mm. The product cannot be used indoors and complies with the CPR directive, meeting the Fca standard.

Inside the coating, there is a special hydrophobic gel that protects against longitudinal moisture ingress. This is an additional safeguard that enables cable installation in challenging conditions, such as in sewers or pipes where water may periodically be present. The gel protects the veins, preventing them from being permanently damaged by moisture.

 

The product is sold in a cardboard package. Inside, the cable is coiled into a roll that can be conveniently unwound through a specially designed opening. Additional plastic protection safeguards the cable from mechanical damage and abrasion during unwinding. A handle on the top of the box allows you to easily carry it with one hand. The side wall of the box can be opened, allowing you to quickly remove the entire cable if needed. Inside the box, there are 305 meters of cable.

UltraLAN cables are originally packed in pairs in sturdy shipping cartons. When ordering an even number, you will receive the cables in additional packaging, which is ideal for courier shipments..
