Product Features
Technical Overview
This CAT6 cable utilizes four twisted pairs of solid 23AWG copper wire, engineered to minimize crosstalk and electromagnetic interference while maintaining signal clarity over extended runs. The 550MHz frequency rating ensures compatibility with current and emerging network standards, delivering stable performance for data-intensive applications.
The plenum-rated PVC jacket is specifically formulated to produce low smoke and minimal toxic fumes in the event of a fire, meeting NEC requirements for installation in plenum spaces without conduit. This makes it ideal for commercial buildings where cables run through ceilings, raised floors, or other air circulation areas.
Key Product Advantages
This bulk cable spool offers installers and network professionals a cost-effective solution for large-scale deployments, combining high electrical performance with essential safety certifications. The lifetime warranty underscores Axiom's commitment to durability and long-term reliability in demanding environments.
Plenum Safety Compliance
The cable jacket meets NEC plenum ratings for low smoke and flame spread, allowing installation in air-handling spaces without additional conduit, reducing material and labor costs.
- Low smoke emission
- Flame retardant
- NEC compliant
Solid Core Performance
23AWG solid copper conductors provide superior electrical characteristics for permanent installations, offering better signal integrity over distance compared to stranded alternatives.
- Stable impedance
- Reduced attenuation
- Long-distance reliability
Deployment / Use Cases
This cable is engineered for structured cabling systems in commercial and institutional settings where performance, safety, and scalability are priorities. Its bulk format and bare wire ends provide flexibility for custom-length runs and termination methods.
Typical applications include backbone wiring in office buildings, data center interconnects, educational campus networks, and healthcare facility installations. The plenum rating makes it suitable for ceilings and risers in multi-story buildings, while the CAT6 specification ensures support for VoIP, video surveillance, and high-speed data transfer.
Commercial Office Networks
Deploy for workstation drops, conference room connectivity, and backbone links between floors, leveraging the plenum rating for code-compliant installation in ceiling spaces.
Data Center Infrastructure
Use for server rack interconnects and patch panel terminations, where solid core construction ensures consistent performance in temperature-controlled environments.

FAQ
What is the difference between plenum and riser cable ratings?
Plenum-rated cables like this Axiom CAT6 spool are designed for installation in air-handling spaces (plenums) where air circulates for heating and cooling. They have fire-retardant jackets that produce low smoke and minimal toxic fumes. Riser-rated cables are for vertical runs between floors but may require conduit in plenum spaces. This cable's plenum rating allows direct installation without conduit in most commercial building plenums.
Can I use this cable for outdoor installations?
No, this is an indoor plenum-rated cable not designed for outdoor use. It lacks UV protection and waterproofing required for exterior environments. For outdoor runs, you would need specifically rated outdoor or direct-burial CAT6 cable with appropriate jacketing.
What tools are needed to terminate the bare wire ends?
Terminating the bare wire ends requires a CAT6 crimping tool, RJ45 connectors, and a cable tester. For patch panels, you'll need a punch-down tool. Proper termination ensures optimal performance by maintaining twist ratios and minimizing untwisted conductor length. Professional installers typically use these tools to achieve reliable Gigabit Ethernet connections.
Is this cable compatible with Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications?
Yes, this 23AWG CAT6 cable supports standard PoE and PoE+ applications. The solid copper conductors and plenum jacket are suitable for delivering both data and power to devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones in commercial installations.
