Belden® now offers Brilliance CatSnake Category
5e cables for use in patching Ethernet or digital
audio/video formats utilizing Cat 5e-type cable.
Because these Category 5e UTP cables are extremely
rugged and utilize Belden’s patented Bonded-Pair
design, they are able to be used in high traffic areas
in a broadcast studio or in any type of tactical,
field deployable audio/video installation.
　

Bonded-Pair Design Means
Installable Performance®

The consistency of a UTP cable can determine
its transmission distance. Physical characteristics,
such as the cable's conductor-to-conductor
spacing relationship along the full length of the
cable, can affect how far a signal can be carried at
a given frequency without excessive attenuation
due to Return Loss.
　

CatSnake Bonded-Pair Cat 5e Audio cables
maintain their impedance and Return Loss
performance when flexed and handled in rugged,
harsh environments. Bonded-Pairs are the result
of Belden's patented design that bonds the
individual insulated conductors together along the
full length of the cable. The cable therefore
exhibits a uniform conductor-to-conductor spacing
relationship along its longitudinal axis that assures
consistent impedance characteristics. Nonbondedpair
cables tend to gap during their flexing, coiling
and handling — or during normal use. These gaps
typically create an impedance mismatch.
　

Belden calls this superior after-installation and
in-use performance, Installable Performance;
Portable Performance is the term used for
portable applications.
New Product Bulletin

NP 228 CatSnake® Cables
Belden Bonded-Pair cables have a
uniform conductor-to-conductor
spacing; nonbonded-pair cables are
inconsistent.

Rugged, Portable Performance
　

To further ensure the ruggedness, portability,
survivability and re-useability of these cables,
Belden has either a heavy jacket wall version
for medium duty applications or an upjacketed
version for the harshest heavy-duty
environments (Product Nos. 1304A and
1305A, respectively). To make them flexible,
these cables have stranded (7x32) conductors
and matte-finished Belflex® jackets.
These cables also pass the UL 1581 -40°C
Cold Bend test and are RJ-45 and
Neutrik EtherCon® compatible.
　

Construction Details

CatSnake® Product Nos. 1304A and 1305A
feature Bonded-Pair unshielded twisted pairs
(UTPs) with 24 AWG stranded bare copper
conductors and polyolefin insulation.
The matte-finished jackets are constructed of
Belflex with rip cords for easy jacket removal.
