Overview

Panduit PFR5504BU-UY is a Category 5e shielded (F/UTP) riser-rated copper cable designed for high-performance data networks. This 4-pair cable features 24 AWG solid copper conductors with polyethylene insulation, twisted in pairs and surrounded by an overall polyester aluminum foil shield with a stranded copper drain wire for superior noise immunity. The cable is jacketed in a flame-retardant PVC compound meeting CMR (riser) requirements, ensuring compliance with NEC and building codes for vertical installations between floors. Engineered for Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T) and legacy applications including 10BASE-T and voice wiring, this cable delivers reliable performance in environments with electromagnetic interference (EMI) or radio frequency interference (RFI). The blue jacket provides easy identification in complex cabling infrastructures, while color-coded pairs simplify termination and reduce installation time. With a maximum frequency of 100 MHz and bandwidth support up to 350 MHz, the PFR5504BU-UY meets ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 5e standards for structured cabling systems. Ideal for commercial buildings, industrial facilities, data centers, and healthcare environments where reliable data transmission and EMI protection are critical. The riser-rated construction prevents flame spread in vertical runs, making it suitable for installation in risers, conduits, and cable trays. Panduit’s rigorous quality control ensures consistent electrical performance across the entire cable length, minimizing signal degradation and maximizing network uptime. Key applications include Gigabit Ethernet networks, VoIP systems, IP cameras, access control systems, and PoE (Power over Ethernet) deployments up to 100 watts. The cable’s robust construction and compliance with global standards make it a dependable choice for mission-critical installations where performance and safety cannot be compromised.
