The PICMates CAT 5e Ethernet Cable (part number E13426) is designed for airborne applications, supporting 10/100 Base-T Ethernet connections. It features a twisted-pair construction with two data pairs made from silver-plated high-strength copper alloy conductors, ensuring reliable conductivity and solderability. The cable is encased in a PFA dielectric and has an 80% braided shielding to protect against electromagnetic interference (EMI).
With a smaller overall diameter of 0.16 inches (3.99 mm) and a weight of 2.0 lbs per 100 ft (2.9 kg per 100 m), the E13426 maintains flexibility for ease of installation. It operates effectively within a temperature range of -55 to +200°C and is rated for a maximum distance of 224 ft (68 m). The cable meets ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 CAT 5e channel requirements and is compliant with RoHS directives. Additionally, it is resistant to Skydrol and meets FAR flammability requirements, making it suitable for use in cabin management systems, in-flight entertainment, and Ethernet backbones.
The E13426 is a 2 pair, 10/100 Base-T CAT5e cable (exceeding ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 CAT 5e Channel Requirements) with a smaller overall diameter and weight while retaining performance and required operating parameters up to 224 ft. The E13426’s twisted-pair construction (two separate pairs) of silver-plated copper conductors is surrounded by a PFA dielectric that assures uniform conductivity with excellent solderability. The 80% braided shielding assure uniform conductivity with excellent solderability, further protecting against EMI. A laser-markable PTFE jacket protects the cable against abrasion and environmental effects while maintaining flexibility for ease of installation. E13426 is suitable for airborne 10/100 Base-T CAT5e Local Area Network applications such as cabin management systems (CMS), in-flight entertainment (IFE), and Ethernet backbones.
