said by sk1939:Yes yes I know it's not REAL Cat5e, but I bought it because it was cheap, and was available in lengths smaller than 500feet. The question is, can I use CCA cable for regular POTs/T1 lines?
Why wouldn't you be able to? No, its not cool like solid copper cable nor able to perform as well as a solid copper cable, but POTS / T1 is not exactly pushing the technology edge either...
All that said, I wouldn't use it to wire my entire house but I did recently buy a small box of it to add a new WAN line in the existing conduit run from a room and across to a rack.
