  CATV Cable

Anushakti-Fire-Protekt

The APAR Tarang Shakti Cable is a high-performance Category 5 (Cat 5) LAN cable designed for seamless, high-speed data transmission. While the name may suggest a Cable TV (CATV) application, this product is an advanced networking solution, engineered for modern data communication systems. It is the perfect choice for creating robust, reliable wired networks in offices, homes, and commercial spaces. Featuring four twisted pairs of solid copper conductors and a superior shielding design, this cable ensures your data is transmitted at lightning-fast speeds with minimal interference.

The APAR Tarang Shakti Cat 5 cable is engineered for optimal performance across a wide range of applications. It supports a frequency of up to 100 MHz and is capable of handling transmission speeds of up to 1 Gigabit per second (Gigabit Ethernet), making it more than sufficient for today’s high-bandwidth needs like online gaming, HD video streaming, and large data transfers. The tinned copper drain wire is not just for grounding; it also provides an additional layer of corrosion resistance, extending the cable’s lifespan. The flexible yet robust design allows for a minimum bending radius suitable for both fixed installations within conduits and a more flexible radius for patch cords. This shielded Cat 5 cable provides the perfect balance of performance, durability, and cost-effectiveness.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a CATV cable and a Cat 5 cable?

A CATV cable is a single-conductor coaxial cable used for television and broadband. A Cat 5 cable is a multi-pair cable with four twisted pairs of copper wires, designed specifically for computer networking and data transmission. The APAR Tarang Shakti cable is a Cat 5 cable.

Can this Cat 5 cable support Gigabit Ethernet?

Yes, this cable supports a bandwidth of up to 100 MHz, which is the required standard for Gigabit Ethernet. This allows for data transfer speeds of up to 1 Gbps, ensuring fast and efficient network performance for all your devices.

Why is there a drain wire in this cable?

The tinned copper drain wire is a crucial component for the cable’s shielding. It provides a low-resistance path to ground for any unwanted electrical noise and interference that the aluminium foil screen absorbs. This ensures the integrity of the data signal and protects against performance loss.
