Designed for high-speed data networks, this cable supports 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet) and is ideal for telephony voice wiring, 10BASE-T, and emerging PoE applications. The flame-retardant LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) HDPE jacket ensures safety in plenum and riser environments, meeting UL CM and CMX ratings for fire safety compliance. Key features include color-coded pairs for simplified termination and installation, reducing setup time and minimizing errors. The 24 AWG conductors provide optimal balance and signal integrity, while the twisted-pair construction minimizes crosstalk and electromagnetic interference. Packaged on a 1000 ft (305m) reel, the TX5500 is optimized for large-scale deployments, offering efficient cable management and reduced waste. This Cat 5e U/UTP cable is engineered for mission-critical applications in enterprise networks, data centers, and industrial environments where performance and safety are paramount. Its LSZH jacket makes it suitable for use in air-handling spaces, ensuring compliance with stringent building codes. The cable’s 350 MHz bandwidth support and 1000BASE-T compatibility make it a cost-effective solution for high-speed data transmission without the need for costly Cat 6 or Cat 6A infrastructure. Backed by Panduit’s reputation for quality and reliability, the TX5500 Cat 5e U/UTP LSZH cable is the smart choice for network professionals seeking a durable, high-performance solution for modern Ethernet and PoE applications.
