The Elite Core SUPERCAT5E-S-EE-1.5 is a 1.5FT 24AWG EtherCON to EtherCON Shielded CAT5E Extension Cable in Black Finish, designed for high-performance, heavy-duty applications that demand exceptional durability, flexibility, and reliable data transmission. Hand-built by skilled technicians at Elite Core's facility in Greenbrier, Arkansas, USA, this tour-grade cable is ideal for professional environments such as touring, live events, broadcast, and mission-critical applications. The SUPERCAT5E-S-EE-1.5 combines the flexibility and compact design of smaller diameter cables with the robust protection necessary for the toughest conditions, ensuring a clean, uninterrupted signal every time.
The SUPERCAT5E-S-EE-1.5 features a fully shielded design, ensuring maximum protection from electromagnetic (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI). This is particularly beneficial in environments with high electronic noise, such as concert venues and broadcasting studios. The cable is built with stranded twisted pairs of copper, each wrapped in mylar for additional protection. The insulation locks in the twist rate and provides excellent electrical insulation, ensuring optimal performance for long-distance data transmission. The foil shield further enhances the cable's resistance to interference, guaranteeing that the signal remains clear and stable.
On both ends of the cable, the EtherCON connectors are designed with touring and stage use in mind. These connectors are far more robust than standard RJ45 connectors, eliminating the fragile components that are typically prone to damage in high-demand environments. The EtherCON connectors provide a secure, lockable connection that ensures the cable stays firmly in place, even during the most demanding setups. Additionally, the booted RJ45 connectors come with rubber boots, adding strength and durability to the connection, preventing wear and tear from physical stress.
For even greater flexibility and versatility, the SUPERCAT5E-S-EE-1.5 comes with the option of CS45 Converta Shell connectors. These connectors allow for quick and easy transformation between tactical ethernet and standard RJ45 connections, offering flexibility in diverse setups. Each CS45 connector is equipped with a rubber cover, adding protection against dirt, moisture, and physical damage. These covers also serve as a convenient holster for the connector's barrel, preventing accidental loss and ensuring that the cable remains protected during storage and transport.
Constructed with stranded copper cores (7 x 0.20mm) for excellent conductivity and flexibility, the SUPERCAT5E-S-EE-1.5 features polyethylene insulation around each conductor. This insulation provides high tensile strength, chemical and dimensional stability, and effective electrical insulation. The durable PVC jacket protects the cable from abrasions, snags, and tears, while offering a tensile strength of ≥8.0 MPa and an elongation of ≥100%, making it ideal for environments that require constant handling and flexibility. The jacket's swing test rating of ≥2000 ensures that the cable can endure repeated movement without compromising its integrity.
In terms of electrical properties, the SUPERCAT5E-S-EE-1.5 offers a DC resistance of 86.44 Ω/km, a capacitance of 54.3 pF/m, and a characteristic impedance of 100 Ω, making it perfectly suited for high-speed, stable data transmission. The cable is rated for a temperature voltage of 30°C and has a withstand voltage of 0.5mA, ensuring reliable performance even in varying temperature conditions. With its excellent electrical properties and durable construction, the SUPERCAT5E-S-EE-1.5 cable is built to handle the challenges of professional environments.
Whether you are working in a touring setup, live event, or any environment that requires a robust, flexible, and reliable networking solution, the Elite Core SUPERCAT5E-S-EE-1.5 is engineered to meet the demands of the job. With its durable construction, high-quality shielding, and versatile connectors, this cable ensures optimal performance in even the harshest conditions. Each cable is hand-tested to ensure the highest quality, and it is coiled using the over/under method for easy handling and storage. The SUPERCAT5E-S-EE-1.5 is backed by Elite Core's lifetime warranty, ensuring long-term reliability and peace of mind.
