Stranded cable is for use in shorter runs between network interface cards (NICs) and and wallplates or between concentrators and patch panels, hubs, and other rack mounted equipment. Stranded-conductor cable is much more flexible than solid-core cable. However, attenuation is higher in stranded-conductor cable, so the total length of stranded cable in your system should be kept to a minimum to reduce signal degradation.
This cable is made with 100% bare copper wire and is fully compliant with UL Code 444 and National Electrical Code TIA-568-C.2 fire and safety standards, which require pure bare copper wire in Cat5e and Cat6 cables. It is made with a PVC sheath, and has an thickness of 0.51mm. CAT 6 compliant Cable and accessories from ABA provide much more than sufficient headroom for the most robust network applications.
