Ubiquiti Cat5 Grounded 20m

This cable has special grounding as required by Ubiquiti™ such as the NanoStation range of products.

It has:

• The standard 8-wire, straight-through LAN wiring.
• Special metal clad shielded RJ45 connectors. These connectors make ground contacts with the grounded RJ45 sockets on Ubiquiti devices and POE injectors.
• A Foil Shield surrounding the conductors, and electrically connected to the metal shields on the RJ45 connectors. This provides an electrical path from the circuit board of the Ubiquiti™ device, and the ground pin of the AC cord used with the POE injector. This path prevents voltage build-up during nearby electrical storms that can destroy the ethernet interface on the Ubiquiti™ device.
• A weatherproof, externally rated jacket.

It is imperative that all Ubiquiti™ devices mounted externally up a pole/tower use a mechanism to ground the device. Failure to do so voids the warranty.
