PROXTEND CAT6 F/UTP CCA PVC Bulk Ethernet Cable - 305m Reel, Grey, 23 AWG Solid, 250 MHz, Gigabit

For installers who need a dependable, budget-conscious Cat6 solution, the PROXTEND V-6FUTP-01B delivers a full 305-meter reel of F/UTP cable with copper-clad aluminum conductors. Unlike premium solid-copper reels, this cable prioritizes cost efficiency without sacrificing the structural performance expected from a Cat6 installation. The foil shielding wraps all four twisted pairs, providing a layer of protection against external electromagnetic interference, while the grey PVC jacket stands up to everyday handling in indoor environments. Whether you're pulling cable through conduits, wiring a patch panel, or setting up a structured cabling system, this reel gives you the length and consistency needed for large-scale projects.

Highlights

• Full 305 m (1000 ft) reel for extensive installations
• Cat6 performance up to 250 MHz, supporting Gigabit Ethernet
• F/UTP shielding: overall foil wrap reduces alien crosstalk
• CCA conductors (23 AWG solid) offer a lower-cost alternative to solid copper
• Grey PVC jacket rated CM for indoor use
• Supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 55 m in ideal conditions

In daily use

This cable is built for professional installers who need to balance performance and budget. The solid CCA conductors are easy to terminate with standard RJ45 connectors and punch-down blocks, though extra care is recommended to ensure secure connections. The foil shield must be properly grounded at the patch panel or keystone jack to achieve the full benefit of the F/UTP design. Because CCA has higher DC resistance than solid copper, this cable is not recommended for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications that require long runs or high power delivery. For standard data networking—computers, IP phones, access points without PoE, and general LAN traffic—it performs reliably within the Cat6 specification.

Final note

Choose the PROXTEND Cat6 F/UTP CCA reel when project budgets demand a cost-effective cable that still meets Cat6 performance standards for everyday data networking. For PoE-heavy or mission-critical installations, consider a solid-copper alternative.
