Belden 74003PU, 500 m Cat5E Cable, Black Polyurethane Sheath

This thin Ethernet cable is designed for industrial and automation environments where compact, flexible data wiring is required. It provides multi-core connectivity for control and communications systems, suited to installations requiring a slim profile and resilient outer covering in exposed or confined routing.

• 8-core stranded conductor delivers improved flexibility and routing ease
• Stranded bare copper 19 strands enhances signal continuity and bend resilience
• Polyurethane black jacket offers abrasion resistance and external protection
• Halogen-free compound reduces toxic emissions during combustion
• 450V rating enables use in higher-voltage control circuits
• Operates across -40°C to 80°C for wide environmental tolerance

• Suitable for factory automation cabling in machine cabinets
• Ideal for linking sensors and actuators in production lines
• Used with industrial switches for plant-floor network segments
• Can be used for confined trunking and cable trays in control panels
• Suitable for retrofit installations requiring a thin 500m supply length

The 19-strand configuration of the bare copper conductors increases Flex life and reduces the risk of breakage when pulled through tight bends, making it easier to manoeuvre during installation.

The polyurethane outer sheath resists mechanical wear and chemicals typically found on shop floors, preserving insulation integrity and extending service intervals.

Yes, the specified maximum operating temperature of 80°C allows routing in areas with elevated ambient temperatures without compromising electrical performance.

It carries recognised electrical and fire-safety approvals appropriate for many industrial installations, supporting conformity with local regulatory requirements.
