CablesPlus USA hopes so. We take cables seriously; more than just a cord connecting one device to another or transferring power - we believe that your network is only as strong as your weakest cable.

And at CablesPlus USA, none of our cables are weak.

Our CAT5E network cables with boot come in ranges from 1- 100 feet, and our 10-pack CAT5E crossover cables (also with boot) come in ranges of 3 - 25 feet. Our phone and email support lines are staffed with specialists ready to take custom orders, and inform you of any bulk order discounts.

Copper Cables: Communications’ Best Friend

Filed under: Copper Cables — admin @ 11:45 am

Copper cables have been a long standing staple in the IT industry and copper technology is involved in just about every device connector. Cable reliability is extremely important as the analog signal that travels through the cable is sensitive to interference and interruption.  Providing a quality connection with reliability that service providers can depend on, copper cables from Cables Plus delivery a high rate of connectivity and have proven over the years exactly why they are a mainstay in communications.

There are two general types of copper cables:Coaxial and Twisted Pair Wire. We will discuss both, in brief, below:

Coaxial cable is the preferred choice for high-speed transmission demands such as Ethernet networks and service providers dispatching broadband internet access to customers. Coaxial cable is made up of one copper conductor wrapped in a screen with any gaps between the two filled with an insulating plastic layer called a dielectric layer. Because of this layer, coaxial cable has superior electric capabilities which make it the perfect vessel for transmitting high-speed communications.

Twisted Pair Wire remains the most common copper cable choice today due to its simple construction, widespread availability, and low cost. Twisted pair wire is typically a pair 4 wire cable encased in plastic to protect the wire, and can come with or without a metal screen. Don’t be fooled though, twisted pair wire comes in many different types and isolation layers each offering varying performance.  Twisted pair wire installers must consider the correct isolation layer for the job, and weigh these against resistance, capacitance, and attenuation which all affect the quality of the data transmission.

Whatever the job, Cables Plus USA has every copper cable to fit your needs and we handle custom orders as well.
