  Four-channel Heavy-duty Tactical Cat5e Snake  
         
   
  Unique four-channel, heavy-duty Cat5 snake ideal for applications that require multiple or redundant channels of Cat5 cables in remote production or staging applications. The CTS4504HDX consists of four elements of Gepco's CT504HDX heavy duty, four-pair Cat5 UTP cables under an overall jacket. Each element features 24 gage, solid copper conductors and a unique inner belt that preserves the critical pair spacing and geometry. For added strength and diameter, each four-pair UTP element has a second TPE jacket which is color coded for easy identification. The outer jacket is also constructed from a rugged TPE compound for exceptional durability and flexibility in hostile environments. Each Cat5 four-pair UTP element can be terminated with either standard Cat5 RJ45 connectors or the ruggedized Neutrik EtherCon® connectors.
