Cat 5e Shielded Cable Description
Cat 5e Shielded Cable delivers high-performance transmission with data rates up to 1000Mbps and bandwidth reaching 150MHz, making it ideal for digital, voice, data, and video signal applications across all D-level links and enhanced Category 5 networks. Its advanced structure features tightly bonded insulation (>45N/50mm), 100% back-twisting, and a reverse stranding design to ensure cable integrity and signal stability. Wrapped with a thick imported polyester tape and equipped with a 0.5mm tinned copper ground wire, it employs an industry-leading longitudinal adhesive shielding technique, offering seamless shielding far superior to conventional designs. Multiple jacket color options and clear box labeling enhance installation efficiency and cable management.
Cat 5e Shielded Cable Applications
- Office and enterprise networking (LAN)
- Voice over IP (VoIP) systems
- Video surveillance and CCTV installations
- Industrial control systems with electrical noise exposure
- Data transmission in high-interference environments
- Structured cabling for commercial and residential buildings
- Digital signage and multimedia streaming setups
- Server rooms and data centers requiring shielded connectivity
Cat 5e Shielded Cable Packaging
Our products are packaged in customized cartons of various sizes based on the material dimensions. Small items are securely packed in PP boxes, while larger items are placed in custom wooden crates. We ensure strict adherence to packaging customization and the use of appropriate cushioning materials to provide optimal protection during transportation.
Packaging: 300 m/Carton, Wooden box, Paper barrel, or Customized.
Manufacturing Process
- Conductor Drawing - Copper wires are drawn to the required diameter.
- Annealing - The wires are heat-treated to improve flexibility and conductivity.
- Insulation - Each conductor is coated with insulation material (e.g., HDPE).
- Twisting - Insulated wires are twisted into pairs to reduce crosstalk.
- Shielding - A shielding layer (e.g., foil or braid) is applied around twisted pairs or the full cable.
- Cable Formation - Shielded pairs are bundled into a cable core.
- Jacketing - An outer jacket (e.g., PVC or LSZH) is extruded around the cable.
- Printing & Meter Marking - Cable length and specifications are printed on the jacket.
- Testing - Electrical and mechanical performance is tested.
- Packaging - Cables are coiled or reeled and packed for shipment.
