Applications : | Cat6 Cable is a cable standard for Gigabit Ethernet and other network protocol, suitable for 10BaseT, 100BaseTx & 1000BaseT (Gigabit Ethernet) application. In addition, these cables are with copper wire braid armoured & flame retardant mud resistant outer sheath, providing additional mechanically protection still maintaining the flexibility of the cable. |
Standards : | IEC 60332-3-22 IEC 60754-1,2 IEC 61034-1,2 NEK 606:2004 |
Conductors : | 23AWG solid bare copper. |
Insulation : | HDPE. |
Twinning : | Two coloured insulated conductors twisted together to form a pair. |
Bedding : | Flame retardant, low smoke and halogen-free polyolefin, coloured black. |
Armour : | 0.2/0.3mm copper wire braid. |
Outer Sheath : | Low smoke and halogen-free polyolefin. |
Optional : | Cat6 F/UTP : These cables have collective shielding of aluminium/Polyester tape with drain wire. Cat6 SF/UTP :These cables have double collective shieldings of aluminium/Polyester tape & copper wire braid with drain wire. |
