Panduit PUP6C2204BU-WZ CAT6 4-P 22AWG U/UTP CMP-LP BU 1000ft PK1000

Overview

The Panduit PUP6C2204BU-WZ is a 1000-foot spool of Category 6 (CAT6) unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) cable. Designed with 22 AWG solid copper conductors and a CMP-LP (Communications Multipurpose Cable, Limited Power) plenum-rated jacket, this cable ensures reliable data transmission for high-density network deployments, including surveillance systems and enterprise IT infrastructure. Its construction supports up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds over limited distances, making it suitable for backbone and horizontal cabling runs where performance and safety are critical.

Compatibility

This cable is designed for use with standard RJ45 connectors and is compatible with all network devices supporting CAT6 specifications, including managed and unmanaged switches, routers, IP cameras, access control panels, and workstations. It meets TIA/EIA-568-C.2 standards for CAT6 performance, ensuring interoperability with equipment from major manufacturers like Cisco, Aruba, Ubiquiti, and Axis Communications.

Installation Notes

The CMP-LP rating indicates suitability for installation in air-handling (plenum) spaces, requiring adherence to local building codes for fire safety. The 22 AWG solid copper conductors require termination using punch-down tools or specialized connectors designed for solid conductors. Ensure proper cable management to avoid kinks or excessive bending, which can degrade performance. The cable is supplied on a 1000ft spool, facilitating efficient installation in larger projects.
