Excel Cat6 Network Cable - 100m - White

Solid Cat6 cable uses a single, solid copper conductor per wire, offering better performance over long distances and fixed installations but is less flexible. Stranded cable uses multiple thin strands of copper, making it more flexible and suitable for patch cords or applications with frequent movement.

No, this is an Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable. It does not have any overall foil or braid shielding.

LSOH stands for Low Smoke Zero Halogen, meaning it emits less toxic smoke and no halogen gases when burned. CPR Euroclass Dca indicates compliance with European construction product regulations for fire safety, suitable for buildings with moderate fire risk.

The TIA/EIA standards recommend a maximum length of 100 meters (328 feet) for permanent horizontal cabling runs to ensure reliable performance at Gigabit speeds. Exceeding this limit may result in degraded performance.

You will need an RJ45 crimping tool compatible with solid conductors, a cable stripper, and a punch-down tool for terminating into patch panels or keystone jacks.

Yes, the solid copper conductors are suitable for supporting Power over Ethernet (PoE, PoE+, PoE++) applications.

Verify cable is Cat6 compliant, check for damage or sharp bends, ensure termination is correct on both ends, and test with Cat6-rated network equipment.

Inspect termination points for loose connections. Check for physical damage along the cable run. Ensure the cable is not in close proximity to strong sources of EMI.

Ensure you are using RJ45 connectors specifically designed for solid core copper conductors. Verify the conductor arrangement matches the connector pinout.

Confirm the cable is properly terminated and not damaged. Check that the network switch or injector supports the required PoE standard and power budget.
