The Cat 5e UTP copper cable is constructed of 24 AWG copper conductors with HDPE insulation. The copper conductors are twisted in pairs and wrapped with a foam polypropylene tape to form a core. All four pairs are covered with an industrially rated black PVC jacket which is oil and sunlight resistant and flame retardant. This cable is rated for panel or on-machine applications where space is shared with 600 V high voltage cables. The cable is supplied 305 meters (1,000 feet) to a reel and black.
