Description
The Mercury 808.005UK Cat5e U/UTP Network Cable is a high-performance data cable designed for safe and reliable installations in commercial, residential, and public buildings. Featuring oxygen-free AWG24 solid copper conductors, this cable delivers consistent performance for Gigabit Ethernet, HDBaseT, and structured cabling systems.
Its standout feature is the Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) sheath, which significantly reduces the emission of toxic fumes and dense smoke in the event of a fire — making it the preferred choice for safety-critical environments such as schools, hospitals, and offices.
Supplied in a 305m easy-pull box, the cable is marked at 1-metre intervals for quick and efficient installation. Fully compliant with TIA/EIA-568 Cat5e standards, and Fluke tested to 100m at 100MHz, it ensures both quality and compliance.
