Black Box C6U-R-SB-STR-BL-5 CAT6 UTP Stranded Cable
Overview
The Black Box C6U-R-SB-STR-BL-5 is a Category 6 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) Ethernet cable designed for reliable data transmission in commercial and industrial environments. This 1000-foot spool of stranded, black PVC-jacketed cable is suitable for patch cord applications where flexibility is required, ensuring stable connectivity for network devices. It's a foundational component for any structured cabling system supporting IP surveillance, data networks, or building automation.
Compatibility
This cable is compatible with all standard RJ45 connectors and network devices requiring Category 6 performance, including but not limited to: IP cameras, network switches, routers, NVRs, and workstations. It supports data rates up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet over shorter distances, as defined by the TIA/EIA-568 standard, making it suitable for high-bandwidth applications.
Installation Notes
Designed for patch cord construction, the stranded copper conductors offer increased flexibility compared to solid conductors, simplifying installation in tight spaces or where frequent movement is expected. Ensure proper termination with compatible RJ45 connectors and use appropriate crimping tools for a secure connection. The PVC jacket provides basic protection against abrasion and environmental factors common in indoor installations.
