9. CAT5/5E Category 5 Patch Cable Cat 5, is a twisted pair (4 pairs) cable type designed for high signal integrity. Many such cables are unshielded (UTP) but some are shielded (STP). Category 5 has been superseded by the Category 5e specification. This type of cable is often used in structured cabling for computer networks such as Ethernet and basic voice services. Performance characteristics and test requirements for frequencies of up to 100 MHz. Cat 5e Patch Cable An enhanced version of Cat 5 that adds specifications for far end crosstalk. Very similar to Cat 5, it has improved specifications for crosstalk and attenuation.

11. SHIELDED v. UNSHIELDED A shielded cable is an electrical cable of one or more insulated conductors enclosed by a common conductive layer. The shield may be composed of braided strands of copper (or other metal), a non- braided spiral winding of copper tape, or a layer of conducting polymer. Usually, this shield is covered with a jacket. The shield reduces electrical noise from affecting the signals, and to reduce electromagnetic radiation that may interfere with other devices. The shield minimizes noise from other electrical sources. What does this mean???

12. Servo Motor Cable Allen Bradley Bulletin 2090 Job specific and needs to be sized accordingly. Part number configuration and quoting should be referred to Amy Farris. Brush Controls/Marathon (BCI) and Flex Cable (FLX) Highly flexible, although Allen Bradley is now entering the high-flex market As with the Allen Bradley 2090, best to refer requests to Amy Farris since servo motor cables are job specific.

15. Market Level Pricing What is it? The going rate for a product on the open market How it’s obtained Based on the current traded price of copper Understanding Volatile market Be cognizant of current pricing Use the Pipe & Wire sheet Ask questions

16. Role of Inside Sales Education / Training Extremely Important! www.generalcable.com www.colemancable.com www.lappusa.com American Insulated Wire workbook Most important element Must work with Outside Sales When on customer visits ask about wire needs Must be persistent Spread the word Where we source our wire from Use the handout Rob passed out Buy direct from the Manufacturer when possible AIW, Coleman, Encore, Southwire
