Networking Cable ROLINE 21.15.1687 Grey 300m Cat6a U/UTP

The ROLINE 21.15.1687 is a 300 m Cat6a U/UTP networking cable designed for structured building cabling and data rates up to 10 Gbit/s. With a grey jacket and a solid 8-conductor copper construction, this cable provides the electrical characteristics required for 10GBase-T installations and an impedance of 100 Ohm.

Advantages

This Cat6a U/UTP cable offers support for high-speed 10GBase-T networks, consistent performance due to solid copper conductors, and standard 100 Ohm impedance for compatibility with common networking equipment. Supplied on a 300 m spool, it is suitable for long runs in structured cabling systems and comes in a neutral grey color for unobtrusive installation.

Suitable for

• Structured building cabling in offices and data centres
• 10GBase-T Ethernet connections up to 10 Gbit/s
• Horizontal and backbone network cabling
• Permanent link installations requiring solid conductor cable

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6a
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded pair, overall unshielded)
• Length: 300 m
• Impedance: 100 Ohm
• Construction: 8 lines, solid copper conductors
• Data rate: up to 10 Gbit/s (10000 Mbit/s)
• Colour: Grey

How to use

Install the cable as part of a structured cabling topology, following local installation codes and best practices for separation from power lines and avoidance of tight bends. Terminate each end with appropriate Cat6a keystone jacks or patch panel modules and test the permanent link for continuity, wiring map, and performance to verify 10GBase-T capability.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use suitable Cat6a-rated connectors and patch panels, avoid excessive pulling tension during installation, and perform certification tests (e.g., wiremap, NEXT, return loss, and channel bandwidth) after termination. Store and handle the 300 m reel on a flat surface to prevent kinking.
