Black Box 1000ft Cat5e 350MHz Shielded Bulk Cable (Black)

Overview

The Black Box EVNSL0508A-1000 is a shielded Cat5e bulk cable designed for network installations requiring long, uninterrupted runs. With a length of 1000 feet and support for frequencies up to 350 MHz, it ensures stable and efficient data transmission for applications like Gigabit Ethernet, VoIP, and Power over Ethernet. Its robust shielding and durable jacket make it suitable for environments prone to electromagnetic interference, such as factories, hospitals, and data centers.

Key features

• Continuous 1000-foot length eliminates the need for mid-span joins, simplifying installation and reducing potential points of failure.
• Shielded construction with aluminum Mylar tape and overall foil shield effectively blocks external noise and EMI/RFI interference, maintaining signal integrity.
• Rated to 350 MHz, exceeding standard Cat5e bandwidth requirements for enhanced data throughput and network performance.
• Meets TIA/EIA-568C Cat5e specifications, ensuring twisted pairs are optimized to reduce near-end crosstalk and minimize attenuation.
• Durable black outer jacket resists abrasion and withstands pulls through conduit or overhead trays, supporting reliable long-term use.
• Low attenuation and reduced crosstalk contribute to clean and consistent signal delivery across extended cable runs.
