UTP, Network, and Fiber-Optic Cables

UTP and Network Cables for Professional Installations

JBN Security Systems supplies professional UTP, network, and data cables for security installers, system integrators, and business network projects.

In this category, you’ll find cabling for applications such as IP camera security, PoE networks, Wi-Fi installations, and business data networks. The product range includes Cat5e and Cat6 network cables, outdoor cables, pre-terminated patch cables, and various professional data and signal cables.

Cat5e and Cat6 Network Cables

Cat5e and Cat6 are commonly used cable categories for professional network and CCTV installations.

The JBN Security product line includes, among other items:

• Cat5e UTP cable;
• Cat6 U/UTP cable;
• solid copper network cable;
• CCA versions;
• LSZH cable;
• outdoor network cable;
• armored Cat6 cable;
• rolls of 100, 300, and 305 meters.

The appropriate cable depends on the application, desired bandwidth, PoE load, and installation environment.

Network Cable for IP Cameras and PoE

In IP camera security systems, cameras are often connected to a PoE switch or NVR via an Ethernet connection.

With appropriate network cabling, data and Power over Ethernet can be transmitted over the same cable. This means a separate power cable does not always need to be run to the camera.

For PoE installations, it is important to consider factors such as:

• cable length;
• conductor diameter;
• conductor material;
• PoE power;
• installation environment;
• indoor or outdoor use.

For professional installations, solid-copper cabling is often the preferred choice, especially for higher PoE loads and longer cable runs.

Outdoor and LSZH Network Cable

For outdoor installations, special outdoor cables are available with a jacket that is better suited for exposure to environmental conditions.

For buildings and technical installations, LSZH cables may also be a good option. LSZH stands for Low Smoke Zero Halogen and is intended for applications where limiting smoke and halogen emissions in the event of a fire is important.

This category currently includes several outdoor and LSZH models.

Fiber Optics and High-Speed Network Connections

For network connections requiring higher data rates or specific distances, fiber-optic and optical solutions can be used.

For example, our current product line includes 10 Gbps Active Optical Cables from Ruijie Reyee in various lengths. These can be used for high-speed connections between compatible network devices with SFP+ interfaces.

Which Network Cable Do I Need?

The right cable is determined by factors such as:

• Cat5e or Cat6;
• required speed;
• distance;
• PoE usage;
• indoor or outdoor installation;
• CPR fire rating;
• LSZH requirements;
• shielding;
• solid copper or CCA;
• connector type and equipment.

For professional camera and network projects, it is advisable to take these factors into account in the design from the outset.
