Network cable LANBERG LCUF6L-11CU-0305-S U/FTP Cat6a on reel, 305 m, 23 AWG, 500 MHz, grey

Lanberg LCUF6L-11CU-0305-S is a Cat6a U/FTP (shielded) networking cable on a wooden drum, 305 m long, intended for structured cabling and 10GBase-T Ethernet links. The cable uses 100% pure copper solid conductors (AWG 23, 4 pairs of 0.55 mm), with HDPE insulation around conductors and a PVC outer sheath in grey (PANTONE COOL GRAY 5C). The sheath includes a printed length counter at every metre and the cable is specified to operate up to 500 MHz with recommended maximum working distance of 100 m for installed links.

Advantages

The U/FTP shielding (overall braid with individually foil-shielded pairs) reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, supporting higher data rates up to 10 Gbit/s and stable performance up to 500 MHz. Solid 100% copper conductors provide lower resistance and long-term signal reliability. A printed metre counter on the sheath and delivery on a wooden drum simplify installation and cable management.

Suitable for

• 10GBase-T Ethernet backbones and horizontal runs
• High-density office and data centre cabling
• Environments requiring reduced EMI and improved pair isolation
• Structured cabling installations up to 100 m per link

How to use

Measure and cut required cable length using the printed metre counter on the sheath, then strip the outer PVC jacket and individual pair shields according to connector or module manufacturer instructions. Terminate using compatible Cat6a RJ45 connectors or keystone jacks designed for U/FTP cables and maintain correct pair untwisting limits. Install cabling on cable trays or within conduits, respecting minimum bend radius and avoiding sharp bends, compression, or proximity to strong EMI sources.

Recommendations

For best performance, use compatible Cat6a components, follow TIA/EIA or ISO/IEC cabling standards when terminating and testing links, and verify each channel with a certified cable tester to ensure compliance up to 500 MHz and 10GBase-T operation.
