CAT5e Aerial Outdoor Cable 1000ft - Solid Copper UTP with Messenger, 24AWG
Couldn't load pickup availability
Elevate your outdoor network with our CAT5e Outdoor Aerial Ethernet Cable, engineered for robust Gigabit connectivity across poles, rooftops, and building-to-building installations. Featuring eight 24 AWG solid copper conductors, a UV-stabilized CMX jacket, and an integrated galvanized steel messenger wire, this unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable ensures reliable performance in any weather condition, perfect for campus links, outdoor security cameras, and wireless backhauls.
Built to withstand the elements, this self-supporting aerial cable combines high-tensile galvanized steel (1,370 MPa) with UV-resistant polyethylene and solid bare copper conductors. Tested to 350MHz and exceeding ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standards, it delivers dependable Gigabit Ethernet performance for spans up to 70 meters while resisting sunlight, rain, temperature extremes, and mechanical stress.
