Product overview

This is a 1000-foot bulk Cat 6 plenum-rated Ethernet cable with 23 AWG solid bare copper conductors. It is rated for 550 MHz bandwidth and supports 10 gigabit Ethernet plus PoE and PoE+ up to 60 W. The cable comes in a purple jacket and is packaged in an easy-pull box.

Installation checklist

Verify that your building code requires CMP plenum cable for the intended air-handling spaces such as above drop ceilings or below raised floors. Confirm that your keystone jacks, patch panels and RJ45 connectors are rated for 23 AWG solid conductors. Ensure the 1000-foot length matches the longest planned run plus termination slack.

Who this suits

Installers and IT teams who need a plenum-rated bulk cable for commercial horizontal runs and want individually Fluke-tested 550 MHz performance with PoE+ support. It is not for buyers who need a pre-terminated patch cable with connectors already fitted. It is not for residential in-wall runs where a less expensive riser-rated cable would satisfy local code.

Questions about this item

Does the 1000 ft box include connectors or tools, or must they be purchased separately?

The box contains only the bulk Cat 6 cable with raw ends; RJ45 connectors, a crimping tool and a cable tester are not included and must be bought separately.

Should I choose the 23 AWG solid bare copper version or a stranded alternative for a 1000 ft plenum run?

The 23 AWG solid bare copper construction is the correct choice for a 1000 ft plenum installation because solid conductors meet fire-code requirements and deliver the 550 MHz bandwidth over the full length.

What does the 550 MHz rating mean for actual throughput when the cable is terminated and installed?

The 550 MHz bandwidth enables 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance over the full 1000 ft run and supports PoE+ up to 60 W, with each reel individually tested on a Fluke DTX-1800 analyser for TIA/EIA 568.2C compliance.
