CAT5 Wiring

In addition to Ethernet applications, Category 5 (CAT5) wiring is used by
Crestron for a variety of audio and video applications.
Crestron recommends using CresCAT-D wire or other high-quality
CAT5 cable for transmitting CAT5 audio and video signals.
When using a Crestron wiring solution, the CresCAT-D wire can carry
audio and video signals up to 500 feet (observe distance limitations based
upon power consumption for the touchpanel in use). For more
information, refer to the latest version of the Crestron CAT5 Wiring
Reference Guide (Doc. 6137).
