This category cable contains 4 twisted pairs of stranded 23 AWG conductors allowing for longer maximum cable runs and increased signal integrity. The twisted pairs are separated by a 4-way divider to maintain proper spacing and reduce crosstalk between pairs. Crosstalk between cables and electromagnetic interference is also reduced due to the heavy duty aluminum foil shield and the dedicated tinned copper drain wire for proper shield termination.

The Cat 6 wire comes complete with a matte black, flame retardant low smoke, zero halogen (LSZH) jacket that protects the interior workings of the cable from harsh environments and installation stress. Distance markers are printed on the jacket every 2 ft so you never lose sight of how much wire you've installed.

Low smoke, zero halogen cable is the new standard in safety. In a fire situation, a LSZH cable produces very little smoke and due to the extremely low levels of Halogens in the material, produces no toxic fumes.

This solid Cat 6 wire provides an excellent foundation for any commercial or home network. It is perfect for structured cabling and transmission of digital and analog signals for data, video, and audio applications. It meets IEEE 802.3ab for 1000Base-T and also meets both IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at for PoE and PoE+ applications. It is also suitable for HDBaseT, AES 50, AES 67, AES/EBU, Digital Video, RS-422, and tested up to 550 MHz.
