Black Box C6U-R-SB-STR-GN-150 CAT6 UTP STR Sngls BT PVC 150 FT

Overview

The Black Box C6U-R-SB-STR-GN-150 is a 150-foot Category 6 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) Ethernet cable. It is designed for reliable data transmission in network installations where a specific cable length is required, such as connecting a camera to a switch in a surveillance system or extending a network drop in an office environment. The cable features a black PVC jacket, suitable for general indoor use.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with all standard networking equipment that utilizes RJ45 connectors, including network switches, routers, IP cameras, network video recorders (NVRs), and computers. It supports data transfer rates up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T) over shorter distances and is backward compatible with Fast Ethernet (100BASE-TX) and Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T) networks. Ensure your connected devices support the desired network speed and utilize appropriate termination standards (e.g., T568A or T568B).

Installation Notes

The C6U-R-SB-STR-GN-150 is a stranded copper cable, offering better flexibility than solid core cables, making it easier to route through conduits and around corners. Avoid sharp bends or kinks that exceed the minimum bend radius (typically 4 times the cable diameter) to prevent signal degradation. The PVC jacket provides basic protection but is not rated for direct burial or extreme environmental conditions. For plenum spaces, a plenum-rated cable is required.
