Product Features
Technical Overview
This CAT6 cable operates at a 400-MHz bandwidth, exceeding the baseline 250-MHz requirement for Category 6, which enhances signal integrity and reduces crosstalk in high-density cabling setups. It incorporates Near End Crosstalk (NEXT) protection to maintain clear data channels by minimizing interference between adjacent wire pairs, a key feature for maintaining network performance in enterprise and data center applications.
The cable’s construction uses High-density Polyethylene (HDPE) insulation around each conductor, providing durable electrical isolation and mechanical protection. With bare wire ends, it is intended for termination with RJ45 connectors, keystone jacks, or patch panels, offering flexibility for custom-length runs in new installations or upgrades.
Key Product Advantages
This bulk cable delivers professional-grade network infrastructure with features tailored for reliability, safety, and ease of deployment. Its shielding and plenum rating make it a versatile choice for demanding environments.
Enhanced Noise Protection
The F/UTP shielding with Aluminum Mylar foil provides effective EMI/RF protection, reducing signal degradation in areas with high electrical interference, such as near machinery or in industrial settings.
Plenum Safety Compliance
CMP-rated jacket meets fire safety codes for plenum spaces, emitting low smoke and limiting flame spread, which is essential for commercial buildings and data centers to ensure compliance and safety.
Long-Distance Performance
With 1000 ft length and solid 24 AWG conductors, this cable supports consistent 1 Gbit/s speeds over extended runs, ideal for backbone connections or large office deployments without signal loss.
Deployment / Use Cases
This cable is suited for structured cabling systems where custom lengths, shielding, and plenum ratings are required. Its bulk format allows installers to cut precise lengths, reducing waste and optimizing material costs for large-scale projects.
Common applications include enterprise network backbones, data center interconnects, office building riser systems, and educational or healthcare facilities where reliable, high-speed Ethernet is critical. The bare wire ends enable termination with standard RJ45 connectors for patch cables or direct connections to network equipment, supporting both new installations and retrofits in existing infrastructure.
Enterprise Network Backbone
Deploy for core switching and routing connections in corporate environments, leveraging its shielding and length for stable gigabit performance across floors or buildings.
Plenum Space Installations
Use in air-handling plenums above ceilings, where CMP rating ensures compliance with fire codes while maintaining network integrity in hidden cable runs.
Physical Profile
The cable features a durable yellow PVC jacket that resists abrasion and environmental wear, with a weight of 36 lb (16329.33 g) for the full 1000 ft spool, making it manageable for transport and installation. Its solid core construction provides mechanical stability for permanent installations, reducing the risk of breakage during pulling through conduits or trays.

FAQ
What is the length of this Black Box CAT6 cable, and is it suitable for long runs?
This cable is 1000 ft (304.80 m) long, making it ideal for extended network installations such as backbone connections, office building wiring, or data center interconnects. Its solid 24 AWG conductors and 400-MHz bandwidth maintain 1 Gbit/s performance over the full length, ensuring reliable data transmission without significant signal loss in large-scale deployments.
Does this cable have shielding, and what type is it?
Yes, this cable features F/UTP (Foiled/Unshielded Twisted Pair) shielding with an Aluminum Mylar layer. This shielding provides protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), which is crucial in environments with electrical noise, such as industrial areas or near heavy machinery, to ensure stable network connectivity.
What does CMP plenum rating mean for this network cable?
CMP (Communications Plenum) rating indicates that the cable's jacket is certified for use in plenum spaces—the air-handling areas above ceilings or below floors in buildings. It meets strict fire safety standards by emitting low smoke and limiting flame spread, which is required by building codes in commercial settings to enhance safety during fire events.
What connectors are on the ends of this bulk cable?
This cable has bare wire ends on both sides, meaning it is un-terminated and designed for custom termination. You can attach RJ45 connectors, keystone jacks, or patch panels to create patch cables of specific lengths, offering flexibility for tailored installations in new or upgraded network infrastructure.
What is the data transfer rate supported by this CAT6 cable?
This cable supports data transfer rates up to 1 Gbit/s (Gigabit Ethernet), suitable for high-speed network applications including file transfers, video streaming, and VoIP. Its Category 6 specification and 400-MHz bandwidth ensure consistent performance for modern business and institutional networking needs.
Is this cable compliant with environmental and government standards?
Yes, this cable is RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliant, reducing environmental impact by limiting hazardous materials. It is also TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant, making it eligible for use in U.S. government and institutional procurement where sourcing from designated countries is required, ensuring broad applicability in regulated sectors.
