Even though Cat5e Cable is showing its age, the technical capabilities of Cat5 provide 1000-megabit (1 gigabit) communication speed, providing Power over Ethernet.

We are proudly introducing our own branded RS PRO Cat5e Cable designed to connect either to a laptop, PC, modem, router, switch, phone or IP camera. This Ethernet Cable exceeds the minimum performance specification and prevents crosstalk helping to keep your data safe. Our Cable deliveries backbone and horizontal networking applications over distances up to 10 meters.

The UTP code for this network cable provides valuable shielding information to make a formal decision as:

• U stands for unshielded.


• TP stands for twisted pair.

Within the jacket, the wiring inside is tightly twisted, meaning the Cat5e is more resistant to crosstalk than Cat5. The crosstalk refers to electromagnetic interference that occurs between cables when they are close to each other. This interference can lead to error in data transmission; therefore, it is essential to pick the right network cable.

Typical applications for this type of Ethernet Cable can be found in:

• Laptop


• PC


• Modem


• Router


• Switch


• Phone


• IP camera

What is the difference between Cat5e and Cat5?

The main difference lies in data transmission through network capabilities. CAT5 Cable can transmit data from 10 to 100 Mbps whereas Cat5e Cable is performing at up to 1000 Mbps.
