APPLICATION

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 can be offered with copper wire braid armoured & flame retardant outer sheath, providing additional mechanically protection still maintaining the flexibility of the cable.

STANDARDS

ISO/IEC 11801 EN 50173 ANSI/TIA/EIA 568

Conductor : 23AWG solid bare copper.

Insulation : PE.

Twinning : Two coloured insulated conductors twisted together to form a pair.

Outer Sheath : Thermoplastic PVC compound.

Outer Sheath Option : UV resistance, hydrocarbon resistance, oil resistance, anti-rodent and anti-termite properties can be offered as option. Compliance to fire performance standard (IEC 60332-1, IEC 60332-3, UL 1581, UL 1666 etc) depends on the oxygen index of the PVC compound and the overall cable design. LSPVC can also be provided upon request.

Cat6F/UTP : These cables have collective shielding of Aluminium/polyester tape with drain wire.

Cat6SF/UTP : These cables have double collective shielding of Aluminium/polyester tape & copper wire braid with drain wire.
