Cat5E UTP/FTP Armoured Data Cable Applications
Cat5E Cable is a cable standard for Gigabit Ethernet and other network protocol, suitable for basic voice and data installations up to 100 MHz. In addition, these cables are with tinned copper wire braid armoured & flame retardant mud resistant outer sheath, providing additional mechanically protection still maintaining the flexibility of the cable.

Cat5E UTP/FTP Armoured Data Cable Construction
- Conductors : 24AWG solid bare copper.
- Insulation : HDPE.
- Twinning : Two coloured insulated conductors twisted together to form a pair.
- Bedding : Flame retardant, low smoke and halogen-free polyolefin, coloured black.
- Armour : 0.2/0.3mm tinned copper wire braid.
- Outer Sheath : Low smoke and halogen-free polyolefin.
Optional
- Cat5E F/UTP : These cables have collective shielding of aluminium/Polyester tape with drain wire.
- Cat5E SF/UTP :These cables have double collective shieldings of aluminium/Polyester tape & tinned copper wire braid with drain wire
