Cat 5 Cable

Standard Cat 5 structured cable designed for basic network connections. Ideal for legacy networks, telephony, and low-speed IP applications.

Conductor Dimensioning

AWG (American Wire Gauge)

Understand what AWG means and choose the right cable size for your application in seconds.

Quick Conductor Rule

↓

Lower AWG Number

Thicker copper core • Less resistance • High power (PoE++)

↑

Higher AWG Number

Thinner copper core • More flexible • Easier patch routing

← Lower AWG (Thicker Conductor / More Power)Higher AWG (Thinner Conductor / More Flex) →

23 AWG

Thickest Copper

Thicker copper core yields the lowest resistance, enabling full 100m structural links and high-wattage power delivery.
