Questions & Answers
is this cable rated 75ohm?
Is it 3G rated?
Per the description it states "Can be used in the place of CMP, CMR, CMG, CM and CMX cables". CMX means the cable has an outdoor rated jacket. Is it safe to run going through the wall to a security camera mounted on the wall of the exterior?
While the product description states it "Can be used in the place of CMP, CMR, CMG, CM and CMX cables", the specifications indicate it is for "Indoor" use only. CMX cables are specifically designed for outdoor use, featuring a jacket resistant to sunlight and moisture. Therefore, although this cable might work temporarily for your security camera, it's not recommended for long-term outdoor use. For exterior applications, using a cable specifically rated for outdoor environments is safer and ensures better performance and longevity.
Is it rated for conduit underground
This cable is designed for in-wall and under raised floor use for computer and data wiring. While it can be used within conduit, it is not specifically designed for direct burial underground. If you need to run cable underground, it's recommended to use a cable rated for direct burial.
can this be direct burry
This is not rated for direct burial.
Is it for outdoor ?
Hi Gabriel. Thank you for shopping at the Home Depot. According to the manufacturer, this cable is for use in walls and under raised floors for computer and data wiring. It does feature 4 pairs of copper conductors and PVC insulation, but it is designed for indoor use only. Please let us know if we can be of further assistance. Rick_HD_OC
If I run it thru a conduit that is outdoor ?
I do that all the time
We apologize, but we don't understand the question fully. Please reach out to CableTechSupport@southwire.com for assistance.
Can this be used for landline telephone wiring? Why is only internet mentioned in the description?
We are happy to help! Please contact our experts at CableTechSupport@southwire.com for assistance regarding your question.
Yes. I have used this in the past to run phone lines. Just be sure to have the RJ-11 connectors pinned out correctly.
Nobody runs phone lines like what you are thinking anymore. Even isp provider will suggest Voip instead as they no longer service that older technology
