Frequently Asked Questions
What does CMR rating mean?
CMR stands for Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser-rated. It is intended for use in vertical shafts or general-purpose indoor cabling applications.
Are these cables compatible with T568B wiring?
Yes, the cables are compatible with both T568A and T568B universal wiring standards.
What gauge is the wire used?
These patch cords utilize 24 AWG stranded conductors.
Is this cable shielded?
No, these are unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cables.
What is the purpose of the boots on the RJ45 ends?
The snagless boots protect the connector tab from snapping off during installation and prevent the cable from snagging on other cords in a cable tray or rack.
