A 500m reel of CAT5e installation cable, rated to 100MHz for Gigabit Ethernet at up to 100 metres.
Stranded copper cores keep it flexible, so it is the cable to use for making up your own patch leads with crimp plugs made for stranded wire. It uses unscreened twisted pairs (U/UTP), which is all most homes and offices need.
Its LSZH sheath produces minimal smoke and no halogen fumes if it burns, which many commercial buildings require.
Plan each permanent link at no more than 90 metres, leaving room for patch leads within the 100 metre Ethernet channel.
