Black Box C6ABC50-BL-1000 Cat6a Bulk Cable
Overview
The Black Box C6ABC50-BL-1000 is a 1000-foot spool of blue Cat6a bulk Ethernet cable designed for high-speed data transmission and Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications. This cable supports 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10-GbE) up to 328 feet (100 meters), making it suitable for demanding network infrastructure in commercial environments. Its construction ensures reliable performance for VoIP phones, wireless access points, and surveillance cameras requiring both data and power delivery over a single cable run.
Compatibility
This Cat6a cable is backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e systems but is engineered to meet the stringent requirements for 10-GbE performance. It is compatible with all standard RJ45 connectors and keystone jacks designed for Cat6a cabling. Use with devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points (WAPs), VoIP phones, and network switches that support 10-GbE speeds and PoE/PoE+ (802.3at) standards. For optimal performance, ensure all network components, including patch panels and connectors, are also rated for Cat6a.
Installation Notes
The cable is rated for 10-GbE up to 100 meters (328 feet). For PoE and PoE+ (802.3at) applications, ensure your power sourcing equipment (PSE) can supply sufficient wattage for the connected devices. The cable's blue jacket is suitable for plenum spaces if rated as such by the manufacturer (verify specific product certifications). Maintain a bend radius of at least four times the cable diameter to prevent damage and signal degradation.
