The JBX60517 5ft Cat5e FTP shielded ethernet cable represents a robust solution for modern networking demands. Designed with professional-grade specifications, this cable delivers exceptional performance for residential, small business, and enterprise network installations. **Premium Construction & Materials** This Cat5e FTP cable features >99.95% oxygen-free copper conductors that provide superior conductivity and minimize signal degradation. The fully shielded twisted pair design effectively reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, ensuring clean data transmission even in environments with significant RF interference. The RJ45 connectors are precision-manufactured with copper contacts for reliable connectivity and longevity. **Performance & Compliance** Capable of supporting data rates up to 1GB, this cable fully complies with TIA/EIA Category 5e standards, making it suitable for Gigabit Ethernet applications. The OFNR riser-rated jacketing meets fire safety codes required for in-wall installations in commercial buildings. The cable adheres to RoHS and EU directive 2002/95/EC environmental standards, ensuring compliance with global regulations. **Design Features** The snagless boot design prevents accidental snagging on patch panels and wall outlets, extending cable lifespan and maintaining signal integrity during installations. The 4.0mm outer diameter provides flexibility for routing through tight cable runs and conduit systems. Available in custom lengths beyond the standard 5ft option, this cable accommodates various network topology requirements. **Durability & Reliability** Operating reliably across a wide temperature range from -20°C to +75°C (-4°F to 167°F), this cable performs consistently in diverse environmental conditions. The durable PVC jacketing resists abrasion, moisture, and UV exposure. Backed by a lifetime limited warranty, the JBX60517 offers exceptional long-term value and peace of mind. **Applications** Ideal for connecting computers to switches, routers to modems, NAS devices, security cameras, and VoIP systems. Suitable for home offices, data centers, server rooms, and industrial automation networks. Perfect for network upgrades requiring reliable, shielded connectivity. **Shipping & Support** Ships from multiple U.S. locations (California, Texas, South Carolina) for faster delivery. Free standard shipping applies to orders exceeding $99, reducing total cost of ownership for larger network projects.
