Buying Outdoor and UV Resistant Cables

Cables can be expensive, and there are many circumstances under which you might need to run outdoor fiber optic, power, or ethernet cables. How can you be sure that your cables will be able to withstand the elements? Rather than purchase low-quality cables that will need to be replaced constantly, shop Cables.com for outdoor cables that are built to stand the test of time. 

Outdoor Fiber Optic Cable

There's no need to sacrifice speed or connectivity if you need to run an outdoor fiber optic cable. Cables.com stocks both multi mode and single mode fiber optic cables that are built to weather the elements. Our LC to LC OM3 Direct Burial Duplex Multimode Fiber Cable is direct burial rated for easy installation outdoors, and it features high quality duplex LC connectors on both ends. This 10gb OM3 rated fiber optic cable is factory tested to pass signal, but we recommend giving it a quick test before running it outside. 

If it's a single mode fiber optic cable you require due to a need for higher bandwidth, Cables.com has you covered. Like the OM3 multi mode cable we mentioned above, this OS2 Single Mode Duplex Fiber Cable is rated for direct burial and you can count on it to keep your connection strong and steady. 

Outdoor Ethernet Cable

Cables.com offers a wide assortment of quality Datacomm ethernet cables in variety of configurations that are sure to meet your needs. 

Let's take a look first at our Cat6 Outdoor UV resistant Waterproof Shielded Ethernet Cable for Direct Burial. This sturdy cable is built with the ability to run signal over long distances in mind. It consists of a 23 AWG solid bare copper core and a UV-rated LSZH (low smoke, zero halogen) PVC jacket. This means that its jacket is expected to emit limited smoke and no halogen when exposed to high sources of heat like extremely bright sunlight. Furthermore, since this cable is constructed with a shielded cable and connectors right here in the USA you won't have to worry about interference with your signal transmission!

Like the Cat6 network patch cable above, our Cat5e Outdoor UV Resistant Waterproof Shielded Direct Burial Ethernet Cable is made with consistent exposure to the elements in mind. It features the same 24 AWG bare copper wire for superior signal delivery as well as RJ45 male connectors on both ends, and it's an ideal solution for jobs that require the signal to be transmitted outdoors and over long distances. 

And of course, we carry Cat6a Outdoor UV Resistant Waterproof Shielded Direct Burial Ethernet Cables too! 

Outdoor Power Cords

If you're running a power cord of extension cable outdoors, you probably know of the risks they pose. A faulty cable can damage an electronic device, or worse yet, result in personal harm to the person running it. Luckily, Cables.com can provide you with a heavy duty Outdoor Rated SJTW Extension Power Cord. Because this cord is built explicitly for running outside, you can connect your devices in bad weather with no worry. You can also find an Outdoor 16/3 extension cord as well as a 14/3 Contractor Extension cord with indicator light.
