StarTech WIRC6CMPBLK 1000ft Bulk Cat6 Cable CMP Plenum Rated

Overview :

The StarTech WIRC6CMPBLK is a 1000ft (304.8m) bulk Category 6 networking cable designed for high-performance data transmission in plenum-rated environments. Featuring 23 AWG solid bare copper conductors, this cable ensures maximum signal integrity and support for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications, outperforming copper-clad aluminum (CCA) alternatives. The black jacket is ideal for discrete installations or for color-coding specific network segments in complex infrastructures.

Engineered for safety and performance, this cable carries a CMP (Plenum) fire rating, making it compliant with strict building codes for installation within air-handling spaces, such as drop ceilings and raised floors. It supports bandwidths up to 550MHz, exceeding standard Cat6 requirements to provide a reliable foundation for 1Gbps and 10Gbps (at reduced distances) Ethernet networks.

Deployment is streamlined via a “Reel-in-Box” design, which allows for smooth, snag-free cable pulling. The jacket includes sequential foot markers, enabling installers to track remaining cable and run lengths accurately without manual measurement. This cable is an unshielded twisted pair (UTP) solution and is intended for professional termination into patch panels, wall plates, or RJ45 connectors.

key features :

• CMP Plenum rating ensures compliance with fire safety codes for air spaces.

• 23 AWG solid copper conductors provide optimal conductivity for data/PoE.

• 550MHz frequency support delivers stable high-speed network performance.

• Black jacket facilitates discreet routing or specific network color-coding.

• Tangle-free Reel-in-Box with foot markers reduces installation time and waste.
