Hosa CAT-5100BU CAT 5E Cable BU 100 Feet

look at just about any kind of network connection today and you'll find cat5e cable it's been the most widely used network cable since 2001 and handles signals up to 100 megahertz so you find cat5e handling 10 base t 100 base tx and 1 000 base t ethernet networks but the actual power levels that cat5e sees when used in these kinds of networking applications is relatively low on the order of a few hundred milliwatts however cat5e is now also used in power over ethernet applications where it must handle significantly more power than in ordinary networking in contrast to ordinary ethernet signals having power in the range of hundreds of milliwatts the latest power over ethernet standards called high poe allows for delivering between 90 and 100 watts through cat5e cable to a load the operating voltage for this mode of operation is 50 volts dc that implies that the cat5e cable is carrying a
