NETWORK CABLES
NETWORK CABLES
Unique four-channel, heavy-duty Cat5e snake ideal for
applications that require multiple or redundant channels
of Cat5e cables in remote production or staging
applications. The CTS4504HDX consists of four ele-
ments of Gepco's CT504HDX heavy-duty, four-
pair Cat5e UTP cables under an overall jacket.
Each element features 24 gage, solid copper
conductors and a unique inner belt that pre-
serves the critical pair spacing and geome-
try. For added strength and diameter,
each four-pair UTP element has a sec-
ond TPE jacket which is color coded for
easy identification. The outer jacket is
also constructed from a rugged TPE
compound for exceptional durability
and flexibility in hostile environ-
ments. Each Cat5e four-pair UTP
element can be terminated with
either standard Cat5 RJ45 connec-
tors or the ruggedized Neutrik
EtherCon® connectors.
