Superior Essex Cable 23 AWG 1000 Feet BrakeBox Category 6A F/UTP ScTP CMP Cable 6F-246-xB

Superior Essex Cable 23 AWG 1000 Feet BrakeBox Category 6A F/UTP ScTP CMP Cable 6F-246-xB

Category 6A F/UTP (ScTP) cable, swept out to 650 MHz, meets or exceeds ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 for CAT 6A cables, a requirement for 10GBASE-T applications. The cable is UL® Verified CAT 6A and has a typical Alien Crosstalk margin of 18 dB.

The cable consists of four (4) balanced 23 AWG copper pairs around a flame retardant cross-web. The core is wrapped with a Mylar® backed aluminum foil. A drain wire is applied longitudinally against the tape. The cable is then protected with a flexible riser or plenum rated PVC jacket.
