This unshielded (UTP) cable features a 0.15 in (3.8 mm) diameter, which represents a 28% reduction in diameter compared to standard Cat5e cables. It is constructed with 28AWG stranded copper conductors and utilizes HDPE (High-density Polyethylene) insulation and a PVC jacket. Each RJ-45 male connector is equipped with a slim, snagless boot to protect the connection during installation. \n\nInstallers should note that because this cable uses 28AWG conductors, it does not meet the 22-26AWG conductor size requirement of ANSI\/TIA-568-C.2, which can result in increased attenuation. For maximum channel performance, it is recommended for a 96 Meter Channel (comprised of 90 meters of horizontal cable and up to 6 meters of these slim patch cables) or a 93 Meter Channel (83 meters of horizontal cable and up to 10 meters of these slim patch cables). For POE\/POE+ applications, cable bundles should be limited to 40 cables to manage heat dissipation caused by the reduced diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e28% reduction in diameter compared to standard Cat5e cables for high-density use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e28AWG stranded copper conductor construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSnagless connector design for easy installation in tight spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI\/TIA-568-C.2 standards for Patch Cord Performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnshielded (UTP) Cat5e performance for standard network applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuestions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I use this CG01042 cable for POE\/POE+ applications?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, but for POE\/POE+ applications, it is recommended to limit cable bundles to 40 cables to manage heat dissipation due to the reduced diameter of the 28AWG conductors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the maximum channel lengths for this slim patch cable?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a 96 Meter Channel, use 90 meters of horizontal cable and up to 6 meters of slim patch cables.
