Sennheiser 700069 – Cat 5e EtherCON Antenna Cable 25m

Product Overview

The Sennheiser 700069 is a 25-meter Cat 5e antenna cable with rugged EtherCON connectors for the Spectera wideband digital wireless solution. This Spectera antenna cable links a Spectera base station to its antenna over a shielded, locking Ethernet-based connection across longer runs. It is the 25m length in the Cat 5e antenna cable series, alongside 10m and 50m options. AV integrators use it to extend antenna placement in broadcast, live production, and large installed venues.

Product Description

Sennheiser's Spectera platform carries antenna signals and power over a Cat 5e Ethernet-style cable rather than traditional coaxial RF cable, simplifying long antenna runs. The 700069 provides a 25-meter run terminated with ruggedized EtherCON connectors that lock into place for a secure, road-worthy connection. EtherCON housings protect the underlying RJ45 contacts from dust and mechanical strain in demanding live production and installed environments.

The cable meets Cat 5e specifications and supports the 1 Gbit/s data rate and Power over Ethernet used by the Spectera antenna link. Within the Spectera system, total cable runs can extend up to 100 meters using Cat 5e or better cabling, so this 25m length gives integrators meaningful reach for remote antenna placement while staying within the system budget. Because it uses standardized Cat 5e construction with locking connectors, it integrates predictably into rack and antenna infrastructure. It is a direct-fit antenna cable for Spectera deployments where antennas sit farther from the base station.

Frequently Asked Questions

What system is this cable for?

The 700069 is designed for Sennheiser's Spectera wideband digital wireless solution, connecting a Spectera base station to its antenna over Cat 5e cabling.

Why does Spectera use Cat 5e instead of coax?

Spectera carries antenna signal, data, and power over a single Cat 5e cable, which simplifies long antenna runs compared with traditional coaxial RF cabling.

How long can the total cable run be?

Within the Spectera system, total cable length can extend up to 100 meters using Cat 5e or better cabling. This 25m cable is one segment toward that budget.

What connectors does it use?

The cable is terminated with ruggedized EtherCON connectors that lock into place and protect the RJ45 contacts in live and installed environments.

Does it carry power?

Yes. The cable supports Power over Ethernet, delivering power to Spectera antenna components alongside the data signal.

Will it integrate with my existing rack?

The cable uses standardized Cat 5e construction with locking connectors, so it integrates into Spectera rack and antenna infrastructure. For system design help, contact Creation Networks at https://creationnetworks.net.

What other lengths are available?

The Cat 5e antenna cable series is offered in 10m, 25m, and 50m lengths. Choose the length that matches your antenna placement and total cable budget.
