Product Overview

Patch RJ45 cable is manufactured, tested and verified to the
ISO11801 and EIA/TIA standards for Category 5 enhanced performance.
Each cable consists of 8 colour coded 24AWG polyethylene insulated conductors; this can also be referred as RJ45 cat5e or RJ45 network cable. These are twisted together to form 4 pairs with varying lay lengths. The printing detail on the heat resistant UL rated sheath, includes the cables part number and specification details.

Performance Overview

RJ45 cat5e cables are manufactured to and tested to the current Category 5
enhanced standards as defined by the EIA/TIA and ISO standards' bodies. Swept frequency tests are applied to each critical performance characteristic, such as near end cross talk (NEXT) and far end cross talk (FEXT). Both Worst Case and Power Sum Test methods are applied. Actual performance exceeds the required standard by a considerable margin ensuring sufficient headroom for even the most demanding applications.


RJ45 Network Cable vs Patch RJ45 Cable

A short lead with connectors on either end which is flexible and is used to plug one piece of equipment directly into another is generally referred to as a patch cable. To make them flexible, patch leads are generally made with stranded wire.
Cables with solid core wires are more often used in permanent wiring and terminate on wall sockets and may be sometimes referred to as network cables. These cables aren't so flexible (and will break is repeatedly flexed).
Solid RJ45cat5e Cable vs Stranded RJ45 Network Cable

Solid conductor uses 1 solid wire per conductor, so in a 4 pair (8 conductor) roll, there would be a total of 8 solid wires. Stranded conductor uses multiple wires wrapped around each other in each conductor, so in a 4 pair (8 conductor) 7 strand roll, there would be a total of 56 wires.
