Cyberguys offers solid core and stranded Category 5e and Category 6 bulk cable and patch cables in many colors. All of our patch cables feature low profile boots, 50-microinch gold-plated contacts for the best possible connections, and a molded strain relief boot to eliminate conductor stress and intermittent network faults.
What kind of cable do I need?
Solid Cable is recommended for all horizontal runs, between wiring closets, and for lengths over 25 feet. It cannot be repeatedly bent, but has less attenuation and can span longer distances. Maximum recommended length is 100 meters (328 feet).
Stranded Cable is built to withstand the repeated flexing common in PC to wallplate applications, without damage to inner conductors. Because of higher attenuation, it is recommended for short runs of 25 feet or less.
Plenum Rated Cable is generally required in all air returns, dropped ceilings and public buildings. Plenum-rated cable has slow-burning, fire-resistant casing that emits little smoke. |
