Cat.5e U/UTP and F/UTP Patch Cords, HydraX™

The Hermesys HydraX™ Category 5e Patch Cord is available in 24 AWG U/UTP and 26 AWG F/UTP constructions for unshielded and shielded copper network connections. Both versions use four-pair stranded bare copper cable, RJ45 plugs and molded snagless boots, with PVC or LSOH jacket options. The U/UTP version provides a practical solution for standard office and commercial networks, while the F/UTP version incorporates overall foil shielding to improve protection against electromagnetic interference. Multiple lengths and colors are available for easier identification and cable management.
