Frequently Asked Questions
What does CMR rating mean for this cable?
CMR (Communications Multipurpose Riser) rating indicates that this cable is suitable for installation in vertical shafts or between floors in commercial buildings. It is designed to prevent the spread of fire from floor to floor, meeting critical fire safety codes.
Can this Cat6 cable support 10 Gigabit Ethernet?
While Cat6 cable can support 10 Gigabit Ethernet over very short distances (up to 55 meters), it is primarily designed and certified for reliable Gigabit Ethernet (1 Gbps) performance. For consistent 10 Gigabit speeds over longer runs, Cat6a or higher is recommended.
Is this cable shielded or unshielded?
This StarTech.com Cat6 cable is U/UTP (Unshielded/Unshielded Twisted Pair), meaning it does not have an overall shield or individual shielding for its twisted pairs. It relies on the twisted pair design for noise reduction in typical office environments.
What is the AWG wire size of this cable?
This cable features 23 AWG (American Wire Gauge) conductors. A 23 AWG wire is thicker than 24 AWG, providing better signal integrity over longer distances and improved power delivery capabilities for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications.
