ADVANTAGES of 5m CAT5 Ethernet Cable

    • Can be sure the wires are correctly wired
  • They come in a range of lengths
  • CAT5e is compatible with gigabit networks
  • They are good quality cables at a low cost

DISADVANTAGES of 5m CAT5 Ethernet Cable

  • It is not always possible to pull pre-terminated cables through existing ducting or walls
