American-made cable is a smart investment, especially in the wake of trade wars with China. International conditions, along with increasing uncertainty in the global cable market, are driving up costs. When you’re sourcing large volumes of cable for projects ranging from ISP expansion to engineering, quality is essential. The quality of your cable determines the long-term success of your initiative and ultimately your reputation. Sourcing American-made wire and cable from a trusted supplier can help ensure your long-term success.
How Do Suppliers Cut Costs?
Offshore-made cables are becoming increasingly common. While working with an offshore supplier can initially seem like a cost-savings measure, quality concerns can quickly erode any advantage. Some of the common complaints that we hear from customers making the switch back to American made cable include:
- Failure of cables to meet industry standards or comply with industry specifications
- Skimping on the amount of copper that’s used in the conductor by making the OD smaller
- Using less material or lower-quality material for insulation and jackets resulting in thinner jackets
- Shipping delays and other logistical hazards that impact project timeline and customer relationships
These are just a few of the issues that customers report. But the result is always the same. Upfront savings leads to poor quality performance, resulting in critical failures, unhappy customers, and the need for ongoing maintenance and the revisiting of jobs that would otherwise be complete.
Typically, after one bad experience, customers begin finding a trusted American-made cable supplier and building a strong relationship.
Finding Trusted American-Made Cable Suppliers
One important step that companies can take to underscore their commitment to quality is identifying trusted American-made wire and cable suppliers. It’s important to engage in due diligence and ensure that a wire and cable manufacturer isn’t functioning as a reseller.

Work with an American-based cable manufacturer that offers industry standard listed cables and are manufactured under ISO 9001 certification.
LAN and Premise Cables
Strong connectivity powers today’s enterprise landscape data centers and networking hubs, and their computing power relies on LAN and premise cables to keep everything connected and working.
A cable failure can lead to downtime of essential systems that cost companies thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars before the cause is identified and addressed. Remee’s cables are designed to meet or exceed EIA/TIA Category 5e, 6, and 6A and available in a variety of options, such as UTP and STP, Plenum and Riser rated, LSZH, armored or bundled, as well as in composite constructions with fiber optics and/or coax cable types.

In an interconnected world, ethernet cables fuel data transfers.

American-made cables from Remee meet or exceed EIA and TIA guidelines while solving networking and power solutions for a range of devices.

American-made Remee wet-location cables are manufactured to withstand harsh environmental conditions.
