There are several types of LAN (Local Area Nerwork) cables separated into categories according to their usual working frequencies. Emelec VíasCom has in stock a wide range of cables from category 5E to category 7A.
In this article we are going to talk about these cables, their characteristics and different variants. We also want to remind you that among our products you will also find RJ45 connectors for the unshielded LAN cables commonly called UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pairs) and RJ49 for the shielded ones also known as FTP (Foiled Twisted Pairs), U/FTP (Individually Foiled Twisted Pairs), F/FTP (General Foil + Individually Foiled Twisted Pairs), SF/FTP (General Screen + Foil and Individually Foiled Twisted Pairs), with their respective crimping tools.
