DSIT UTP Cat6a 500m Grey 100% Copper Network Cable (DC-U6A1-500)

High-performance unshielded twisted pair (UTP) network installation cable engineered for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over 500 meters. The DSIT DC-U6A1-500 delivers exceptional signal integrity with 100% solid copper conductors and a robust LSZH jacket, making it the ideal backbone for demanding commercial and industrial networks.

Advantages

This Cat6a cable supports bandwidth up to 500 MHz, enabling 10GBASE-T data rates with full Power over Ethernet (PoE, PoE+, PoE++) capability. The 23 AWG solid copper conductors ensure low attenuation and superior conductivity compared to copper-clad aluminium alternatives. The LSZH jacket emits low smoke and zero halogen in case of fire, enhancing safety in occupied spaces.

Suitable for

• Structured cabling in data centres and server rooms
• High-speed backbone connections between switches and routers
• PoE-powered devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones
• Installations requiring compliance with ISO/IEC 11801 and TIA/EIA-568-C.2
