Midas 328' Ruggedised Cat5e UTP Network Cable Reel

The CAT5E-100M ruggedised CAT5E cable provides a bidirectional digital audio network data link and features Neutrik etherCON NE8MC-1 connector carriers with an integral O-ring gasket to achieve IP54 water protection for high reliability, especially desirable in concert touring and festival applications.

When used with Midas PRO and M Series and Klark Teknik products equipped with HyperMAC and copper snake interfaces, the CAT5E-100M cable can transmit up to 192 bidirectional channels of 24 bit digital audio at 96 kHz sample rate. CAT5E-100M also supports 24 bidirectional channels and 48 bidirectional channels at 96 kHz and 48 kHz sample rates respectively for AES50 connections. CAT5E-100M can also be used for standard Ethernet applications, and is suitable for both 100 Mbit/s and Gigabit networks.

The CAT5E-100M cable uses highly durable upjacketed Belden 1305A unscreened cable with a nominal 7.6 mm diameter. The 1305A cable features 24 AWG bonded-pair stranded (7/32) copper conductors with polyolefin insulation and both inner and outer PVC protective jackets.

The CAT5E-100M cable is supplied on a reel with heavy duty steel frame and integral carrying handle for ease of transport, deployment and respooling.
