CAT5e CMP Plenum Cable 1000ft - UL Listed, 24AWG Solid Copper UTP
Couldn't load pickup availability
Enhance your indoor network with our CAT5e Plenum-Rated Bulk Ethernet Cable, engineered for fast, code-compliant connectivity in air-handling spaces. Featuring eight 24 AWG solid copper conductors in four color-coded pairs and a low-smoke CMP jacket, this unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable ensures reliable Gigabit Ethernet, VoIP, video, and security data transmission while meeting the most stringent fire safety standards for plenum installations.
Built with true solid bare copper conductors and FEP insulation, this cable minimizes attenuation and delivers robust Power over Ethernet (PoE) performance with 350MHz bandwidth that exceeds ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standards. UL-listed with a CMP-rated low-smoke jacket, it's approved for use in drop ceilings, raised floors, and air-return pathways where fire safety is paramount.
