Product features

• 100% copper - a better value
  StarTech.com Cat 5e cables are manufactured with copper conductors. While many cable manufacturers offer a "cheaper" cable based on a copper-coated aluminum core, StarTech.com makes no compromises on quality to ensure you receive top value for your cable investment.
• 24-gauge wire
  StarTech.com's Cat 5 cables are constructed with 24-gauge copper wire to support a broad range of Ethernet applications, such as Power over Ethernet (PoE). Because StarTech.com's uses a high quality 24-gauge wire, StarTech.com's cables easily sustain the nominal voltage capability required for Power over Ethernet applications, whereas the inferior quality offered by copper-coated aluminum cables may be subject to insufficient power delivery, heat build up, equipment damage and potentially, fire.
• 50 micron gold connectors
  StarTech.com Cat 5 cables offer high quality connectors comprised of 50 micron gold to ensure optimum conductivity while eliminating signal loss due to oxidation or corrosion.
