C5E-116IG-XXFT                      C5E-117IG-XXFT

 

 

Signamax category 5e industrial-grade patch cords provide the same high-level transmission performance as other Signamax cords intended for regular commercial applications, but with robustness capable to withstand harsh environments typical to factory floors, chemical, food processing plants, etc. Unique IP67-rated plug housing design along with industrial-grade stranded cable guarantee superb protection against liquid and solid agents’ penetration, against vibrations, and for a long-life reliable performance.

Cords are furnished with dust caps on the protected ends to prevent exposure of unplugged connectors.
