Ubiquiti UISP airMAX Carrier-Class Shielded Outdoor Cat5e Cable (UISP-CABLE-CARRIER)

The Ubiquiti UISP Cable Carrier (UISP-CABLE-CARRIER), formerly known as TOUGHCable Carrier, is an industrial-grade, category 5e shielded outdoor network cable engineered for high-capacity tower and mast deployments. Sold in bulk 305-metre (1,000 ft) pull-boxes, this heavy-duty cable features advanced multi-layered environmental and electrical defense mechanisms designed to support stable Gigabit Ethernet throughput over extended distances. At its core, the cable incorporates an integrated low-density polyethylene (LDPE) anti-crosstalk spline that structurally isolates the internal 24 AWG solid bare copper conductor pairs. To safeguard active networking hardware from destructive lightning surges and electrostatic discharge (ESD) events, the Cable Carrier combines an aluminum foil shield, a dense 95% woven metallic outer braid shield, and a continuous tinned copper drain wire.

Please Note: This is bulk, un-terminated outdoor installation cable supplied on a pull reel inside a box. It requires compatible shielded RJ45 groundable connectors (such as the UISP-Connectors) and professional crimping tools for termination.

Key Features

• Dual-Layer Multi-Shielded Defense: Integrates an primary aluminum foil wrap with a secondary 95% high-density braided metallic mesh shield to completely block heavy localized electromagnetic interference (EMI).

• Integrated Anti-Crosstalk Spline: Utilizes an internal LDPE cross-filler divider to mechanically separate individual pairs, significantly reducing near-end crosstalk (NEXT) to preserve flawless 1 Gbps signal integrity.

• Dedicated ESD Grounding Path: Features an internal 0.4 TC tinned copper drain wire that routes hazardous atmospheric static electricity safely away from delicate POE radios down to the earth ground point.

• Heavy-Duty Polyethylene Jacket: Insulated in a premium, weatherproof black PE sheath designed to resist tearing, abrasion, sub-zero installation handling, and long-term UV weathering degradation.

• Reel-in-a-Box Packaging: Shipped in a robust, site-ready dispensing carton that prevents tangling or kinking when pulling long cable segments up towers or through outdoor conduits.
