Networking Cable ROLINE 21.15.1685 Grey 300m Cat6a U/UTP

The ROLINE 21.15.1685 Grey 300m Cat6a U/UTP is a bulk network cable designed for structured cabling in commercial and residential installations. This Cat6a-rated cable in a 300 meter reel supports higher bandwidth applications and is intended for use where un-terminated cable is required for patch panels, keystone jacks, or custom-length runs. The grey outer jacket provides a neutral appearance suitable for visible and concealed installations.

Advantages

This Cat6a U/UTP cable offers a balance of performance and flexibility for high-speed networks. The U/UTP construction reduces pair-to-pair interference while maintaining compatibility with standard Cat6a terminations. A 300 m reel length reduces the number of joins and allows for continuous runs in large installations. The grey jacket gives a discreet aesthetic and is suitable for a wide range of professional environments.

Suitable for

• Structured cabling in offices and data centers
• Horizontal and backbone network runs
• Custom-length patch cables when terminated on-site
• Environments requiring Cat6a performance up to 500 MHz

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded overall with unshielded pairs)
• Length: 300 m reel
• Color: Grey
• Supported bandwidth: up to 500 MHz

How to use

Run the cable from the source to the destination following local cabling standards and bend-radius guidelines. Terminate the cable on compatible Cat6a jacks, keystone modules, or patch panels using appropriate connectors and a reliable termination tool. Label and test each run with a certified network tester to verify continuity and performance up to Cat6a specifications. Avoid sharp bends, excessive pull tension, and prolonged exposure to heat sources during installation.

Recommendations

For best results, install this Cat6a U/UTP cable in compliance with local electrical and building codes, maintain separation from power lines to minimize interference, and perform post-installation certification testing to ensure the link meets required bandwidth and performance criteria.
