Discover the ultimate solution for your networking needs with our 100m CAT6 Steel Armoured UTP Cab...Discover the ultimate solution for your networking needs with our 100m CAT6 Steel Armoured UTP Cable. Designed for direct burial and outdoor use, this high-performance cable features a robust construction that ensures reliability and durability in even the toughest environments. With a conductor area of 8 x 0.255mm² (23 AWG) made from pure solid copper, this cable supports data speeds of up to 1GB per second over distances of 100 meters. The unshielded twisted pairs (UTP) are separated by a plastic cross divider to minimize interference, making it ideal for applications such as networking, audio-visual installations, and Power Over Ethernet (POE) systems, including CCTV installations. The cable's outer jacket is made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), measuring 1.44mm thick, providing full outdoor rating and protection against the elements. What sets this cable apart is its steel wire armoured (SWA) construction, which consists of 27 steel wires that encase the internal CAT6 cable. This feature offers unparalleled protection against physical damage from shovels, spades, and drills, ensuring that your investment remains safe even when buried underground or in concrete. With an outer diameter of 11mm and strict tolerances for return loss, attenuation, and phase delay, this cable is engineered to deliver exceptional performance. For added convenience, we offer compatible cable clips and cleats for wall mounting, available in our shop. Choose our CAT6 Steel Armoured UTP Cable for a reliable, high-speed networking solution that stands the test of time.
