Outdoor Cable Overview:

The Importance of Outdoor Cable

Normal CAT5E and CAT6 cables will deteriorate quickly when exposed to outside conditions. When using category cables outside, they should be placed in a conduit and then buried underground 6 to 8 inches away from other sources of electrical interference. PVC or other plastic pipe installed with waterproofing can work as a conduit, but ordinary CAT5E and CAT6 cables were not designed for outdoor use.

Still, weather conditions, temperatures, and humidity will shorten the lifetime of ordinary category cable. Direct Burial CAT5E and Direct Burial CAT6 cable should be used for outdoor use instead of regular CAT5E cable or regular CAT6 cable. Direct Burial cable is designed specifically for outdoor use. Exterior-grade cables are waterproof with water block tape and do not require a conduit for burial.

Thus, by utilizing our Outdoor Cables, you will save the time and expense of conduits while assuring your installation lasts longer.
