CAT5E LAN cable (Category 5e) is an enhanced twisted-pair Ethernet cable used in LANs and telecommunications. It supports up to 1 Gbps at 100 MHz over 100 meters (328 feet) and reduces crosstalk for stable connections.
Featuring four twisted pairs of copper wires and RJ-45 connectors, CAT5E is backward compatible with CAT5. It provides a cost-effective, reliable solution for computers, routers, and other network devices in homes, offices, and industrial settings.
While CAT6 and CAT6A offer higher performance, CAT5E remains a popular choice for gigabit Ethernet applications.
