TX5e ™ UTP Patch Cords

applications

specifications

Category 5e/Class D, UTP patch cords shall be

constructed of 24 AWG unshielded twisted pair

stranded copper cable with a high performance

modular plug at each end. Patch cord cable

shall be offered in multiple colored UTP cable

in multiple lengths for design flexibility. All patch

cords shall be compatible with both T568A and

T568B wiring schemes.

TX5e™ UTP Patch Cords are a component of

the TX5500™ Copper Cabling System. This

end-to-end system provides Gigabit Ethernet

performance with usable bandwidth beyond

100 MHz. With certified performance to the

ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 Category 5e and ISO

11801 Class D Edition 2.1 standards, this

system will support the following applications:

• Ethernet 10BASE-T, 100BASE-T (Fast Ethernet),

1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet)

• 155 Mb/s ATM, 622 Mb/s ATM

• Token ring 4/16

• Voice/data systems

• Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP)

*For lengths 1 to 20 feet (increments of

one foot) 20, 25, 30, 35 or 40 feet, change

the length designation in the part number to

the desired length. For standard cable colors

other that Off White, add suffix BL (Black),

BU (Blue), GR (Green), RD (Red), YL (Yellow),

OR (Orange) or VL (Violet) before the Y at

the end of the part number. For example,

the part number for a blue 15-foot patch cord

is UTPCH15BUY.

**For lengths 1 to 10 meters (increments of

one meter) 0.5, 1.5, 2.5, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35,

40 meters, change the length designation of

the part number to the desired length. For

standard cable colors other than Off White,

add suffix BL (Black), BU (Blue), GR (Green),

RD (Red), YL (Yellow), OR (Orange) or

VL (Violet) before the Y in the part number.

For example, the part number for a blue

15-meter patch cord is UTPCH15MBUY.

***To designate color, add suffix IW (Off White),

EI (Electric Ivory), WH (White), IG (International

Gray), OR (Orange), RD (Red), BU (Blue),

GR (Green), YL (Yellow) or VL (Violet).
