InLine Solid Installation Cable 250MHz S/STP Cat.6 CU AWG23 halogen free 100m

The InLine Solid Installation Cable 250MHz S/STP Cat.6 CU AWG23 halogen free 100m is a structured cabling solution designed for fixed installations in residential and commercial buildings. It offers Cat.6 performance with a 250 MHz bandwidth and S/FTP (overall foil with individually shielded pairs) shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. The conductor is solid copper with AWG23 gauge, and the jacket is halogen-free, making the cable suitable for indoor environments where low smoke and non-corrosive combustion by-products are required.

Advantages

This Cat.6 S/FTP cable provides stable high-speed data transmission up to the specified 250 MHz bandwidth and improved noise immunity due to pair and overall shielding. Solid AWG23 copper conductors deliver consistent signal quality for long, permanent runs and reduced attenuation compared with smaller gauges. The halogen-free jacket reduces toxic gas and smoke generation in case of fire, supporting safer installation in confined or public indoor spaces. The cable's construction is suitable for termination with standard Cat.6 keystone jacks and patch panels designed for solid-core cables.

Suitable for

• Permanent horizontal and vertical network cabling in offices and homes
• Data networks requiring Gigabit Ethernet and future-proofed Cat.6 performance
• Environments where improved EMI protection is needed (near electrical equipment)
• Indoor installations where halogen-free materials are preferred for safety

How to use

Measure and route the cable through cable trays, conduits or wall cavities following building regulations and best practices for separation from high-voltage power lines. Terminate the solid AWG23 conductors with compatible Cat.6 keystone jacks or punch-down patch panels rated for solid conductors, observing correct pair orientation and maintaining pair untwist limits near the termination point. Test each run with an appropriate cable tester to verify continuity, pair integrity, and performance up to Cat.6 standards before connecting active equipment.

Recommendations

When installing, avoid tight bends and excessive pulling tension to prevent conductor damage and degraded performance; follow recommended bend radius and pulling force for AWG23 solid cables. Keep the cable separated from sources of electromagnetic interference where possible, and use proper grounding for shielded systems to ensure the S/FTP shielding functions correctly.
