Hubbell C6ASPDSGY Unshielded Twisted Pair Bulk Cable

Overview

The Hubbell C6ASPDSGY is a 1000-foot spool of Category 6 Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) bulk cable. This cable is engineered for robust data transmission in commercial and industrial environments, supporting high-bandwidth applications such as IP surveillance, VoIP, and data networking. Its construction ensures reliable performance for installations requiring up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet over shorter distances, making it a foundational component for any structured cabling system where data integrity is paramount. The C6ASPDSGY model is designed for direct termination to patch panels and wall plates, facilitating a clean and professional network build-out.

Compatibility

This Category 6 UTP cable is backward compatible with Category 5e and Category 5 standards. It is suitable for use with all standard RJ45 connectors and patch panels designed for Cat6 or lower categories. It supports 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet) up to 100 meters and can support 10GBASE-T (10 Gigabit Ethernet) up to 55 meters, depending on environmental factors and termination quality. It is compatible with standard network switches, routers, IP cameras, and other network-enabled devices that utilize standard Ethernet connectivity.

Installation Notes

For optimal performance, maintain a minimum bend radius of four times the cable diameter during installation. Avoid sharp bends and kinks, as these can compromise the cable's internal structure and signal integrity. Ensure proper grounding and bonding practices are followed, especially in environments with significant electromagnetic interference (EMI). Use appropriate termination tools to ensure secure and reliable connections to patch panels and keystone jacks. The cable jacket material is suitable for general indoor use; consult specific building codes and fire ratings if plenum or riser-rated cable is required.
