ACT Cat 6 F/UTP solid installation cable, PVC, CPR euroclass ECA, 24AWG, grey 305 meter

ACT Cat 6 F/UTP solid installation cable PVC CPR euroclass ECA 24AWG grey 305 meter is a solid-conductor network cable intended for permanent structured cabling installations. The cable combines Category 6 performance with F/UTP shielding (foil shield around all pairs) to reduce external electromagnetic interference. It is supplied on a 305 m reel with a PVC outer jacket and meets CPR euroclass ECA requirements for common building applications.

Advantages

The cable provides Category 6 bandwidth and signal integrity suitable for Gigabit Ethernet and some 10 Gigabit-ready runs over shorter distances. F/UTP shielding enhances immunity to crosstalk and external noise compared with unshielded cables, contributing to more reliable link performance in environments with electrical interference. The 24AWG solid conductors offer stable impedance for fixed installation, and the 305 m reel format simplifies longer cable runs during building cabling projects.

Key specifications

How to use

Plan cable routes according to building standards and local regulations. Use appropriate tools to strip the PVC jacket and foil shielding without nicking the solid conductors. Terminate the cable on keystone jacks, patch panels, or connectors rated for solid 24AWG conductors and compatible with Cat 6 performance. Maintain recommended bend radius during installation and avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines to minimize interference. Test each run with a qualified cable tester after termination to verify continuity, wiremap, and performance parameters such as near-end crosstalk (NEXT) and return loss.

Recommendations

For best results in installation projects, select compatible Category 6 installation hardware, observe minimum separation from power cabling, follow CPR and local installation codes, and perform certification testing after installation to confirm performance and compliance.
