Blue plenum-rated shielded Cat6 cable on a white pull-box reel

BFKK

BFKK Cat6 Plenum Shielded F/UTP 23AWG 1000ft 550MHz network ethernet cable

SKU CH-VB2K-43KS3

Plenum-rated shielded Cat6 cable with solid bare copper conductors, 550 MHz bandwidth and a centre spline for reduced cross-talk

  • Plenum-rated jacket meets fire-safety requirements for air-handling spaces
  • 550 MHz bandwidth supports 1 Gigabit and 10-Gigabit Ethernet
  • 100 % solid bare copper conductors deliver stronger signal and better conductivity
  • Centre spline separates pairs to reduce cross-talk and resists kinks
  • 1000 ft on tangle-free reel simplifies long-run installation

Plenum-rated Cat6 shielded cable

This Cat6 plenum-rated shielded cable is built for installations in air-handling spaces such as above suspended ceilings or below raised floors. The CMP-rated jacket provides high flame resistance and low-toxicity smoke. It suits installers and facility managers who need compliant bulk cable for commercial infrastructure.

Bandwidth ceiling at 550 MHz

The cable is tested to 550 MHz, which sets the practical frequency limit for signal integrity on this construction. That bandwidth supports 1 Gigabit and 10-Gigabit Ethernet links within the distance allowances of the Cat6 standard. Runs that demand higher frequencies or longer 10G distances will exceed what this specification can guarantee.

Solid 23 AWG bare copper conductors

Each of the four pairs uses solid 23 AWG bare copper, giving lower attenuation and better conductivity than stranded or copper-clad alternatives. The centre spline separates the pairs to reduce crosstalk, while the overall foil shield adds alien-crosstalk protection. Buyers who need flexible patch cords for short equipment connections should choose a stranded cable instead.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 1000ft reel or a shorter length for my installation?

The product is supplied as a single 1000ft reel, which equals 305 metres. Buy this length when the total run plus slack reaches that figure; otherwise source a shorter bulk roll to avoid waste.

What does the 550MHz bandwidth rating deliver in an actual 10-Gigabit link?

A 550 MHz tested bandwidth supports 10-Gigabit Ethernet up to the standard 100 metre channel limit, provided terminations and patch cords meet Cat6 specifications.

How does the F/UTP foil shield affect the practical performance ceiling of the cable?

The overall foil shield (F/UTP) reduces alien crosstalk and EMI, helping the cable maintain its 550 MHz rating and 10-Gigabit capability in electrically noisy plenum spaces.
