Premium-Line Cat 6 UTP Cable
Premium-Line Cat 6 U/UTP Cable is a high-performance Category 6 unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) cable that is perfect for use in a variety of networking applications. This particular cable is stocked in a handy 305 meter pull box for easy handling and stacking.
Designed to support 1000BASE-TX Gigabit Ethernet, 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet, 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet, 10BASE-T Ethernet, Voice, Video, and other high-speed applications. The majority of installations use unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cables. Baluns allow RGB video signals to be transmitted using UTP, saving the cost of running dedicated wiring for many dealing room systems.
The benefits of running voice, data or video over the same cabling system are considerable. The versatility of the latest structured wiring systems ensures confidence that future needs can be easily met with minimal expense or inconvenience to other network users.
- CPR-Compliant options
- Unscreened twisted pair (UTP)
- Rated for Speeds up to 10Gbps
- RoHS compliant
There are various types of Category cables, each offering different capabilities and performance levels.
| Category | Max Data Rate | Bandwidth Frequency | Shielding | Crosstalk |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cat 5E | 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps) | Up to 250 MHz | U/UTP + F/UTP | Moderate |
| Cat 6 | 10,000 Mbps (10 Gbps) | Up to 500 MHz | U/UTP + F/UTP | Low |
| Cat 6A | 10,000 Mbps (10 Gbps) | Up to 500 MHz | U/FTP + F/FTP + S/FTP | Very Low |
| Cat 7 | 10,000 Mbps (10 Gbps) | Up to 600 MHz | S/FTP | Very Low |
| Cat 7A | 10,000 Mbps (10 Gbps) | Up to 1000 MHz | S/FTP | Extremely Low |
Category cables incorporate various screening types to reduce EMI. The terminology used in the industry can be very confusing, so we have put together some diagrams to better explain the terms we use. For more information, take a look at the different screening types here.
