Plenum Cat 6 for air spaces

This plenum-rated Cat 6 cable is built for installation in air-handling spaces such as drop ceilings and raised floors. It uses 23 AWG solid bare copper conductors and a spline to separate the four pairs. The jacket meets fire-retardant and sunlight-resistant requirements for plenum environments. It is supplied in a 1000 ft easy-pull box.

Bandwidth and power limits

The cable is tested to 550 MHz and complies with ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-C.2 standards. It supports 10 gigabit ethernet over the full 1000 ft length and carries PoE and PoE+ up to 60 W. Each reel is individually verified with a Fluke DTX-1800 Versiv analyzer to confirm performance.

Upgrade from non-plenum or CCA cable

This replaces standard riser or PVC cable when building codes require plenum-rated jacket material. It also replaces copper-clad aluminium cable where pure copper conductivity is needed for PoE+ loads or long 10 GbE runs. The jump is worth it when fire-safety regulations or power-over-ethernet reliability are mandatory.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 23AWG solid bare copper version or a stranded alternative for a permanent in-wall run?

The 23AWG solid bare copper construction is intended for fixed installations such as in-wall or plenum spaces; stranded cable is not offered for this model.

What does the 550MHz rating deliver when the cable is terminated and connected to 10GbE equipment?

The 550MHz bandwidth supports 10 gigabit ethernet over the full 1000ft length when terminated to Cat 6 RJ45 connectors and tested to TIA/EIA 568.2C standards.

How does the CMP plenum jacket affect the fire rating and where the cable can legally be run?

The CMP plenum rating meets fire-safety requirements for air-handling spaces above suspended ceilings or below raised floors, allowing installation in those plenum areas.
