Re: Outdoor rated Cat5 required?

I use a PVC jacket rated Superior Essex jacketed cable for all installations. I only use gel filled cable for tower installations or anything that would require direct burial cable.

Same as slipstream. I used to have the techs use flooded, but it was more of a hassle than it was worth...with the time involved cleaning the pairs and then terminating them.

The jacket on the Superior cable is nearly if not exactly identical to the General Cable that is used by Bell for the phone installs on premise. Very flexable, even in the freezing weather.

Towers get STP from Best-Tronics. Before I started here, the installer was using STP cable for premise....100% pure waste of money 99.99999999999% of the time, if you catch my drift.
