Key Product Advantages
This bulk cable roll offers significant advantages for network professionals seeking reliable, customizable cabling solutions. The combination of technical specifications and practical features makes it suitable for diverse installation scenarios.
Custom Length Flexibility
The 1000-foot bulk roll allows you to cut precisely the lengths needed for each connection, minimizing waste and ensuring optimal cable management throughout your installation.
Durable Construction
Stranded conductors and a rugged PVC jacket provide enhanced flexibility and resistance to physical stress, maintaining signal integrity even in demanding environments with frequent movement or vibration.
Simplified Identification
The distinctive blue color enables quick visual identification of network cables, supporting organized cable management and faster troubleshooting during maintenance or expansion projects.
Deployment / Use Cases
This Cat5e bulk cable is designed for professional network installations where custom cable lengths and reliable performance are essential. The bare wire ends allow termination with standard RJ45 connectors to create patch cables of exact required lengths.
Common deployment scenarios include office network expansions, data center cabling projects, retail point-of-sale installations, and educational facility upgrades. The cable's PoE support makes it particularly suitable for installations powering networked devices like security cameras, access points, and digital signage displays.

FAQ
What is the maximum data speed supported by this Cat5e cable?
This Cat5e cable supports data transmission speeds up to 1 Gbps (Gigabit Ethernet) when properly terminated and installed according to network standards. The Category 5e specification ensures reliable performance for most business network applications including file transfers, video streaming, and VoIP communications.
Can this cable be used for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications?
Yes, this Cat5e cable supports Power over Ethernet applications. The 24 AWG stranded conductors are designed to carry both data and power to compatible devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, VoIP phones, and other networked equipment that receives power through Ethernet connections.
What type of connectors are required to terminate this bulk cable?
This bulk cable comes with bare wire ends, requiring termination with standard RJ45 connectors to create functional patch cables. You will need appropriate crimping tools and RJ45 connectors compatible with stranded wire to properly terminate the cable for use in your network installation.
Is this cable suitable for installation in plenum spaces?
Yes, this cable features a CMG-rated PVC jacket that meets requirements for installation in plenum spaces. The CMG rating indicates reduced flame spread characteristics, making the cable suitable for air handling spaces where building codes require specific fire safety standards for installed cabling.
What advantages does the stranded conductor design provide?
The stranded conductor design offers enhanced flexibility compared to solid core cables, making this cable easier to route through conduits, around corners, and in installations where frequent movement or bending occurs. Stranded conductors maintain better resistance to breakage from repeated flexing while still providing reliable signal transmission.
What warranty coverage does this cable include?
This StarTech.com cable is backed by a lifetime warranty from the manufacturer. This warranty coverage provides assurance of product quality and reliability for your network installation investment, supporting long-term deployment confidence in business and commercial environments.
