1000-ft Violet Cat6 Solid Cable

This Black Box bulk cable provides 1000 feet of Category 6 solid UTP wiring in a violet jacket. It is rated for 550 MHz bandwidth and uses 23 AWG solid copper conductors. The pull-box packaging includes an Accu-Pull measuring system so installers can see remaining length at a glance. It is intended for permanent horizontal runs in commercial structured-cabling projects.

Installers pulling horizontal runs in walls

The solid-conductor design suits fixed installations where cables are terminated at patch panels and wall outlets. It is not suited for patch cords, crossover leads or any application that requires flexible stranded conductors. Buyers who need pre-terminated patch cables or stranded wire for movable connections should choose a different product type.

550 MHz bandwidth rating

The 550 MHz rating is the key specification that determines whether this cable meets the performance budget for a given Gigabit Ethernet or high-bandwidth video design. Verify that the required channel bandwidth does not exceed this figure before specifying the cable.

Questions about this item

How do I pull and terminate the 23 AWG solid conductors from the 1000 ft pull-box without kinking the pairs?

Feed the cable straight from the box centre, keep bends wider than four times the jacket diameter, and use a Cat6-rated punch-down tool on all four pairs to meet the 550 MHz spec.

What maintenance or replacement will the solid UTP cable need after installation?

Solid 23 AWG copper does not fatigue in fixed runs; inspect only if the jacket is crushed or the Accu-Pull markings show unexpected length loss.

What limit appears first on a 1000 ft run carrying sustained 1 Gbps traffic?

At 1000 ft the 550 MHz attenuation budget is exceeded before the 1 Gbps data rate fails, so the run length itself becomes the limiting factor.
