Overview
The Panduit PUP6C04WH-WZ is a 1000-foot (305m) bulk spool of Category 6 unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) copper cable. Its CMP (Communications Multipurpose Cable) Plénum flammability rating makes it suitable for installation in air handling spaces, critical for compliance in commercial buildings and data centers where fire safety is paramount. This cable supports data transmission up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet, ensuring sufficient bandwidth for modern surveillance systems and network infrastructure.
Compatibility
This Category 6 cable is designed for use with standard RJ45 connectors and is compatible with all Panduit Pan-Net™ Category 6 connectivity products, including patch panels, jacks, and patch cords. It supports 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, 1000BASE-T, and 10GBASE-T Ethernet standards, making it suitable for a wide range of network devices from various manufacturers that adhere to TIA/EIA-568-C.2 standards. It is appropriate for new installations or upgrades requiring plenum-rated cable runs.
Installation Notes
The cable features 24 AWG solid, unshielded twisted pairs designed for optimal performance. The white CMP jacket is rated for installation in air-handling (plenum) spaces, requiring adherence to local building codes for such installations. Ensure proper termination using Category 6 rated jacks and patch panels to maintain signal integrity and achieve maximum data rates. Avoid sharp bends exceeding a 4-inch radius to prevent performance degradation.
