West Penn Wire 254245EZYE1000 Cat5e Patch Cable Yellow

Product Description

The WEST PENN WIRE 254245EZYE1000 is a Cat5e compliant bulk patch cable designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. Finished in yellow jacket for easy identification, this cable ships in a 1000-foot pull box suitable for in-wall, plenum-rated pathways, and horizontal runs. Cat5e construction supports data transmission applications where reduced crosstalk and improved signal integrity over Cat5 are required. Network installers, low-voltage technicians, and electrical contractors rely on this format when pulling cable in quantity across racks, panels, and distribution points.

This cable is suited for voice, data, and network applications in office buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, and light industrial environments. The 1000-foot configuration supports bulk termination work where field-terminated patch cords or permanent link runs are needed between patch panels and network switches. Yellow jacketing is commonly used to designate specific network segments or VLAN groupings per site cabling standards.

Key Features

• Cat5e specification for improved crosstalk performance over standard Cat5
• Yellow jacket for network segment color-coding and easy visual identification
• 1000-foot bulk length suitable for large pull installations
• Sold as a single unit (EA) for straightforward procurement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style bulk cable for use in Cat5e structured cabling systems terminated to standard RJ45 connectors, keystone jacks, and patch panels.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or qualified network cabling contractor in accordance with ANSI/TIA-568 standards. Power down or disconnect active network equipment before terminating cable ends to avoid signal interference or equipment damage. Use appropriate cable pulling tools and avoid exceeding the minimum bend radius or maximum pull tension specified for Cat5e cable. Terminate conductors using a 110-type punch-down tool or RJ45 crimp tool matched to the connector type being used.
