LANBERG netwerkkabel Cat5e U/UTP LCU5-12CU-0305-BK, 24 AWG koper, 305 m, zwart

The Lanberg LCU5-12CU-0305-BK is a Cat5e U/UTP networking cable on a 305 m reel. It uses 100% pure copper AWG24 conductors (4 pairs, single-stranded, 2 x 0.45 mm per conductor) with HDPE insulation and a 4.7 mm PVC outer jacket. The cable is rated for operation up to 100 MHz, has a printed meter counter every meter and comes in a color inner box with a master carton (pack dimensions 35 x 35 x 21 cm).

Advantages

The cable construction with pure copper conductors and HDPE insulation ensures stable electrical characteristics and low attenuation over typical Ethernet distances. U/UTP Cat5e specification supports data transmission up to 100 MHz while the printed length counter on the sheath simplifies installation and measurement. The black PVC jacket provides mechanical protection and a discreet appearance for visible runs.

Suitable for

• Ethernet networks up to 100 m (Cat5e)
• Structured cabling in offices and homes
• Patch panels, switches and wall outlets requiring U/UTP cable
• Outdoor-protected runs or conduit installations where black jacket is preferred

How to use

Unwind the required length from the reel and cut to size. Strip the outer PVC jacket and HDPE conductor insulation following standard cable termination procedures for U/UTP Cat5e, then terminate with compatible RJ45 connectors or punch down to patch panels according to the chosen wiring scheme (T568A/T568B). Observe the recommended connector/guide diameter and avoid excessive untwisting of pairs to maintain performance.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, keep individual cable runs under 100 m between active devices, avoid tight bends and mechanical stress, and route the cable away from strong electromagnetic interference sources. Store and transport the reel within the specified temperature range.
