FAQs

What are the key specifications of this Monoprice Cat6 network cable?

This Monoprice Cat6 cable is a 1000ft bulk cable featuring 23AWG solid bare copper conductors with 550MHz bandwidth. It's an Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable with a CMP (Plenum) fire safety rating. The cable is designed for network devices and comes with bare wire ends for custom termination. It's made of 100% pure bare copper wire, making it fully compliant with UL Code 444 and National Electrical Code TIA-568-C.2 standards.

Is this cable plenum-rated and what does that mean?

Yes, this cable has a CMP (Plenum) fire safety rating. Plenum-rated cables are specifically designed and certified for installation in plenum spaces - the areas used for air circulation in buildings, typically between the ceiling and floor above. These cables are manufactured with special fire-retardant materials that produce minimal smoke and harmful fumes in case of a fire, making them safer for indoor building installations where air circulation is critical.

What is the bandwidth capacity of this Cat6 cable?

This Cat6 cable supports a bandwidth of 550MHz, which is standard for Cat6 specifications. This bandwidth capacity allows for high-speed data transmission suitable for modern network applications, including Gigabit Ethernet. The high bandwidth ensures reliable performance for data-intensive applications and provides headroom for future network speed upgrades.

What is the significance of 23AWG in this cable?

The 23AWG (American Wire Gauge) specification indicates the thickness of the copper conductors in this cable. 23AWG is the optimal gauge for Cat6 cables, providing the right balance between signal strength and cable flexibility. This gauge ensures proper power transmission and signal integrity while maintaining compliance with Category 6 specifications for high-performance network installations.

Why is bare copper important in this cable versus CCA?

This cable uses 100% pure bare copper conductors, not copper clad aluminum (CCA). Pure bare copper provides superior electrical conductivity, better signal integrity, and improved durability compared to CCA. It's fully compliant with UL Code 444 and National Electrical Code TIA-568-C.2 standards, which specifically require pure bare copper for communications cables. This ensures optimal network performance and meets safety requirements for commercial installations.
