Cat5e Solid Cable FAQs

What is the difference between LSZH and PVC sheathed Cat5e cable?

LSZH (low smoke zero halogen) sheath is used where cable must meet low smoke and fume regulations, typically indoors in occupied buildings. PVC and PE external sheaths suit standard indoor runs or outdoor use where LSZH is not specified.

What CPR class does Cat5e solid cable need?

Cat5e solid cable in this range is available in B2ca, Cca, Dca, Eca and Fca CPR classes. The class needed depends on the building type and the run, so check the specification before ordering.

Is Cat5e solid cable supplied on a reel or in a box?

Both. Cat5e solid cable is stocked in 305m boxes for pulling directly from the box, and on 100m reels for shorter runs or smaller installs.
