Hi Rich - I know what is says - but I just picked up my LAN cable and it
reads:"ETL VERIFIED TO EIA/TIA TSD-40 CATEGORY 5 E111018 TYPE CM 24 AWG
(UL)LL92833 CSA TYPE FCC FT4"

'nuff said...

Best regards

Gregg

Hi Gregg:

UL

UL Listed wire:

    According to the UL Yellow Book, UL-certified
    Appliance Wiring Material must bear the UR mark.

    If the wire bears the UL file number, then it is
    either in lieu of the manufacturer's name or is
    in addition to the manufacturer's name; the file
    number is NOT required.

UL Listed products:

    The UL 4-character control number is ALWAYS
    required on a Listed product.

UR Recognized Components:

    There is no control number for UL Recognized
    Components (UR).

    The usual UL component certification mark is
    the manufacturer's name and model number.

    For some components, e.g., connectors, the UR
    mark either is not required or is optional.

    For some components, the UR mark is required.

    The UL Yellow Book identifies the required
    markings for components, including those
    components that must bear the UR mark.

I hope this answers your question.


Best regards,
Rich
