Panduit PUP6004WH-W 305M CAT6 WHITE ENHANCED UTP 4PAIR 23 AWG COPPER CABLE NC/NR

Overview

The Panduit PUP6004WH-W is a 305-meter (1000 ft) spool of Category 6 (CAT6) enhanced unshielded twisted pair (UTP) copper cable. Designed for reliable data transmission in commercial and industrial environments, this 23 AWG cable supports high-bandwidth applications, including 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet) and up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet over shorter distances. Its white jacket makes it suitable for visible runs where aesthetics matter, such as in office spaces or retail environments. This cable is essential for building robust network infrastructure that supports modern surveillance systems, ensuring clear video streams and low latency.

Compatibility

This CAT6 cable is backward compatible with CAT5e and CAT5 standards and is designed to be terminated with standard RJ45 connectors. It is suitable for use with any network device requiring Category 6 performance, including managed and unmanaged network switches, routers, IP cameras, access control panels, and network video recorders (NVRs) from various manufacturers. For optimal performance, it should be paired with other CAT6-rated components, such as patch panels and keystones.

Installation Notes

The cable features a 23 AWG conductor gauge, providing a good balance between flexibility and signal integrity. The spool contains 305 meters of cable, sufficient for most single-run installations. Ensure proper termination techniques are followed to maintain cable performance and meet CAT6 specifications. Avoid sharp bends or kinks that exceed the minimum bend radius (typically 4 times the cable diameter) to prevent signal degradation. The cable is intended for general-purpose horizontal or riser (CMR) applications, check local codes for specific installation requirements.
