I found a box of cable. I know the box says "Category 5", but could it be Cat5e?

The box says the following:

"Prime Logic
UTP Cable
Unshielded Twisted Pair

Part No.: DSB
Description: 1000 ft. Category 5 Blue Solid UTP
PLU# 3439133

Size No.: 24AWGx4P
UL Type: CM/MP
Temp. Rate: 75 C

Verified Performance of
TIA/EIA-568-A
ISO/IEC 11801"


The UPC is 638544629151.


Thanks.
