Key Benefits

Why Buyers Specify This Line

FTP Screening

Screening on FTP Cat5e Grey is FTP. It buys interference margin in electrically noisy buildings, provided the screen is terminated into matching hardware.

Grey Jacket

FTP Cat5e Grey is catalogued in grey, which is how most sites keep this service separate from everything else sharing the same containment.

Packed As You Handle It

FTP Cat5e Grey ships as 305 m, 1000 ft, so the format matches how the cable is actually handled on site rather than how it is easiest to wind.

OEM Branding Available

OEM on FTP Cat5e Grey means print on the cable itself from 1 km — still readable when an electrician pulls the last ten metres off the drum.

Tested Before It Ships

Testing on FTP Cat5e Grey happens at the factory, not at your warehouse: continuity end to end, conductor resistance, and dielectric strength on the finished cable.

Use Guide

Installing It Without Losing Performance

  • Use a pulling grip on FTP Cat5e Grey rather than hand tension, and pull steadily. Jerked pulls are what turn a good drum into a failed link.
  • Every millimetre of untwisted conductor at a FTP Cat5e Grey termination is unprotected cable. Strip back only as far as the contact block actually needs.
  • Keep FTP Cat5e Grey off sharp edges and out of tight bends. Impedance changes at a deformed bend do not average out over the link.
  • Bond the FTP screen on FTP Cat5e Grey to a defined earth path at the patch panel. An unbonded screen adds cost and delivers nothing.

Before a first bulk order of FTP Cat5e Grey: request a sample reel. The approved sample becomes the reference every later production lot of this specification is checked against.
