Extended Product Information
FAQs
Can I use this cable for outdoor installations?
No, this cable is designed for internal permanent installation and does not feature UV protection or water-resistant shielding.
Is this cable shielded?
No, this is a U/UTP (Unshielded) cable, which is suitable for standard environments without significant electromagnetic interference.
What does LSOH mean?
LSOH stands for Low Smoke Zero Halogen, meaning the cable jacket emits low levels of smoke and no toxic halogen gases if burned.
Can I use this to make patch leads?
It is not recommended. Solid conductor cable is designed for fixed wiring; patch leads should be made with stranded cable for flexibility.
Does the box require a spindle or axle stand?
No, the Reelex box design allows for tangle-free internal dispensing.
What is the CPR rating of this cable?
This cable has a CPR rating of Dca-s1a,d1,a1.
Troubleshooting
Slow network speeds
Check all termination points to ensure there is no oxidation or loose connections at the RJ45 jack or patch panel.
Intermittent signal loss
Verify that the cable has not been kinked or bent beyond its minimum radius during the installation process.
Failed cable certification test
Ensure that the untwisted length of each pair at the termination point is kept to a minimum, as excessive untwisting causes crosstalk.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install this cable effectively, use high-quality Cat5e RJ45 keystones or patch panels compatible with solid 24AWG copper wire. When pulling the cable from the Reelex box, ensure a clean path to avoid kinks. Due to its solid conductor construction, the cable is intended to remain stationary once installed; avoid repeated bending or high-tension pulling around sharp corners, which can damage the internal pair geometry. Always adhere to a minimum bend radius of 24mm after installation to prevent performance degradation. Ensure the cable is terminated by a certified technician to meet Cat5e standards and verify performance with a TDR (Time Domain Reflectometer) or cable certifier after installation.
