Product Features
Technical Overview
This CAT6 cable operates at 400 MHz, delivering gigabit Ethernet performance with robust noise protection features. The foil unshielded twisted pair (F/UTP) design minimizes electromagnetic interference and near-end crosstalk, maintaining signal integrity in dense cabling environments.
The solid core conductors enhance signal distance and durability compared to stranded alternatives, making it ideal for permanent installations behind walls, in ceilings, or through conduits. With bare wire ends, it allows custom termination to RJ45 connectors, keystone jacks, or patch panels as needed.
This section brings together practical product details such as Cable Type, Cable Length, Connector Type on First End, Product Color, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.

FAQ
What is the difference between F/UTP and UTP shielding?
F/UTP (Foil Unshielded Twisted Pair) features an overall foil shield around all twisted pairs, providing better protection against electromagnetic interference compared to UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair). This makes it suitable for environments with higher electrical noise, such as near power lines or industrial equipment.
Can this cable be used for PoE (Power over Ethernet) applications?
Yes, this CAT6 cable with 23 AWG conductors supports PoE standards, delivering both data and power to devices like VoIP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras. The solid core design ensures efficient power transmission over longer distances.
What does CMR rating mean for the jacket?
CMR (Communications Riser) rating indicates the cable jacket is fire-resistant and suitable for vertical runs between floors in building riser spaces. It meets safety standards to prevent flame spread, making it ideal for installations in plenums, ducts, or riser shafts.
How do I terminate the bare wire ends of this cable?
The bare wire ends require termination using RJ45 connectors, keystone jacks, or patch panels. You will need a crimping tool and appropriate connectors, following T568A or T568B wiring standards. This allows custom cable lengths tailored to your specific installation needs.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
No, this cable has a CMR-rated PVC jacket designed for indoor riser applications. For outdoor use, you would need a cable with additional weatherproofing and UV protection, such as a direct burial or outdoor-rated jacket.
What is the maximum recommended distance for this CAT6 cable?
CAT6 cables typically support gigabit Ethernet up to 100 meters (328 feet) per segment. This 1000 ft spool can be cut into multiple segments for various runs, ensuring each connection stays within this distance limit for optimal performance.
