DSIT CAT6 U/UTP Solid Core Network Installation Cable, 23 AWG, 305 m, Grey

Structured cabling projects often stall when installers face cables that can't maintain signal integrity over long runs or in dense bundles. This DSIT CAT6 U/UTP cable eliminates that bottleneck: a 305-metre pull box of solid-core, 23 AWG copper twisted pairs, engineered for permanent indoor installations where reliable Gigabit Ethernet is non-negotiable.

Who is it for

Professional network installers, IT technicians, and facility managers who need a dependable, standards-compliant backbone for office LANs, data centres, or smart building infrastructure. It suits anyone terminating keystone jacks, patch panels, or RJ45 plugs on solid conductors, and who values consistent performance over the full reel length.

Main features

• CAT6 performance: supports frequencies up to 250 MHz and 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet, with headroom for high-density traffic.
• U/UTP unshielded construction: four twisted pairs of solid bare copper, ideal for typical indoor environments without excessive EMI.
• Solid 23 AWG conductors: optimised for permanent links and punch-down terminations, minimising attenuation compared to stranded cable.
• Grey PVC jacket: durable, flame-retardant, and easy to identify in cable trays or conduits; outer diameter approximately 6.2 mm.
• 305-metre pull box: standard reel length for large installations, reducing mid-run splices and waste.
• Compliance: meets ISO/IEC 11801 and TIA/EIA-568-C.2 requirements for CAT6 permanent links.

Tips

For best results, use punch-down terminations on solid conductors and maintain pair twists as close to the termination point as possible. Avoid excessive bending radius; keep at least 4 times the cable diameter. Test each permanent link with a CAT6 certifier to ensure compliance and performance.
