Frequently Asked Questions
What does the CMR rating mean?
CMR (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser) indicates the cable is jacketed for use in vertical riser applications within buildings, meeting specific fire safety standards for riser spaces.
Is this cable shielded?
No, this is an unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable designed for standard environments where electromagnetic interference is not a primary concern.
Does this cable come with connector boots?
No, this specific model (UNB) is supplied without snagless boots.
Can I use this for gigabit speeds?
Yes, Cat5e is rated for up to 1Gbps speeds, making this cable suitable for modern high-speed office networks.
Is this a solid or stranded cable?
This is a stranded conductor cable, which provides the necessary flexibility for patch cord applications compared to solid core building wire.
