Cat 5e UTP Cable Description
Cat 5e UTP Cable supports transmission rates of up to 1000Mbps and a transmission bandwidth of 150MHz, making it ideal for transmitting digital, voice, data, and video signals. This high-performance cable meets the demands of high-end applications, especially suitable for all D-level links and Cat 5e setups.
Key features include:
Strong Insulation: The insulating layer tightly bonds with the conductor with a force greater than 40N/50mm, ensuring robust performance. Additionally, the core wire's retreating rate exceeds 60%, enhancing the durability of the cable.
Stability & Structure: The direction of the wire's stranding is opposite to the cable's stranding direction, and the cable is 100% back twisted to maintain structural stability and straightness.
Versatile Color Options: The cable is available in 15 colors, easily identifiable from the packaging for quick recognition and organization during installation.
Intuitive Length Printing: The cable is printed with a progressive length indicator, allowing easy tracking of remaining cable during construction, improving efficiency on-site.
Cat 5e UTP Cable Applications
- High-speed Data Transmission: Supports up to 1000Mbps for efficient data transfer in various applications.
- Voice Communication: Ideal for transmitting clear voice signals in telecommunication systems.
- Video Signal Transmission: Suitable for streaming or broadcasting video signals with stable performance.
- Networking: Commonly used in Ethernet networks, including D-level links and Cat 5e installations.

- Security Systems: Used in video surveillance and alarm systems for high-quality signal transmission.
Cat 5e UTP 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: 100 m/ 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.
