Fire Retardant CAT5e F/FTP CWB Armoured Data Cables

Fire Retardant CAT5E Data Cables

FTX-CAT5e f/FTP4P24 cwb

APPLICATION

Cat5E is a cable standard for Gigabit Ethernet and other network protocol, suitable for basic voice and data installations up to

100 MHz. In addition, these cables can be offered with copper wire braid armoured & flame retardant outer sheath,

providing additional mechanically protection still maintaining the flexibility of the cable.
