Product Features
Technical Overview
This CAT6 cable features a 4-pair solid copper construction with 23AWG conductors, delivering enhanced performance for Gigabit Ethernet and other high-speed network applications. The solid core design reduces signal attenuation over long runs, maintaining reliable connectivity across the full 1000-foot length.
The cable meets Category 6 specifications with a bandwidth of 550MHz, supporting data rates up to 10 Gbps over shorter distances and ensuring backward compatibility with CAT5e and CAT5 networks. The plenum-rated jacket (CMP) is made from low-smoke, flame-retardant materials that meet UL 910 standards for installation in plenum spaces without conduit.
Key Product Advantages
This bulk cable spool provides installers with a cost-effective solution for large-scale network deployments while maintaining professional-grade performance standards. The combination of solid conductors and precise manufacturing ensures consistent electrical characteristics throughout the entire spool.
Installation Flexibility
Bare wire ends allow custom termination with RJ45 connectors, keystone jacks, or punch-down blocks to match specific installation requirements.
- Customizable length cuts
- Compatible with standard termination tools
- No pre-attached connectors limiting options
Code Compliance
Plenum-rated jacket meets fire safety requirements for installation in air-handling spaces without additional conduit, reducing material and labor costs.
- UL 910 compliant
- Low-smoke, flame-retardant materials
- Suitable for commercial building plenums
Deployment / Use Cases
This 1000-foot CAT6 bulk spool is ideal for structured cabling installations in office buildings, educational facilities, healthcare environments, and data centers where long cable runs between network equipment and endpoints are required. The solid-core construction makes it particularly suitable for permanent installations within walls, ceilings, and conduit systems.
Network administrators and installers can use this cable for creating custom-length patch cables, backbone connections between network closets, or horizontal runs to workstations. The red color coding helps with cable management and identification in complex network infrastructures, while the plenum rating ensures safety compliance in commercial building air spaces.
Commercial Network Infrastructure
Deploy as horizontal cabling for office workstations, conference rooms, and common areas requiring reliable Gigabit Ethernet connectivity.
Data Center Applications
Use for server-to-switch connections, storage area networks, or other infrastructure links where consistent performance across distance is essential.

FAQ
What is the maximum data speed supported by this CAT6 cable?
This Category 6 cable supports data transmission speeds up to 10 Gigabits per second over shorter distances (up to 55 meters) and maintains reliable Gigabit Ethernet performance across the full 1000-foot length. The 550MHz bandwidth ensures sufficient headroom for current and future network demands in business environments.
Can this cable be used for outdoor installations?
This cable features a plenum-rated jacket designed for indoor use in air-handling spaces. While it offers good durability, it is not rated for direct burial or prolonged outdoor exposure. For outdoor applications, consider cables specifically rated for outdoor use with UV-resistant and waterproof jackets.
What tools are needed to terminate the bare wire ends?
To terminate the bare wire ends, you will need standard network installation tools including a cable stripper, RJ45 crimping tool, and RJ45 connectors. For punch-down terminations, a 110-style punch-down tool and keystone jacks or patch panels are required. The solid 23AWG conductors work well with both crimp and punch-down termination methods.
What does 'plenum-rated' mean for this cable?
Plenum-rated indicates the cable jacket meets UL 910 standards for fire safety when installed in air-handling spaces (plenums) commonly found in commercial buildings. The jacket produces low smoke and is flame-retardant, allowing installation without conduit in these areas while maintaining compliance with building codes and safety regulations.
