The Superior Essex Category 6 CMR/CMX Outdoor cable is specifically designed for outdoor applications. UV-blocking compounds aid in protecting the cable from light. Applications include Ethernet interconnect cable for Wi-Fi or retrofit cable installations that employ exterior runs having long-term outdoor exposure between two environmentally protected points. CMX Outdoor cables are designed to extend the run between the Network Interface Unit and the point of entry into the interior of a residence or a premise.

Superior Essex CAT 6 CMR/CMX Outdoor premises cable has been tested and listed as UL® 444 Outdoor compliant. This designation requires the cable to resist 300 hours of UV and heat. In addition, the CMR listing allows the cable to be used in riser spaces per UL 1666, eliminating the need to transition to fire resistant cables.

Features:
• Combined indoor/outdoor rating
• Meets ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 specification
• BrakeBox® payout control system
• Moisture-resistant package
• CableID® alpha numeric code printed every 2 feet
• QuickCount® marking system in feet and meters
• ColorTip® Circuit Identification System
• Rip cord applied under jacket
• RoHS-compliant

Benefits:
• Reduces inventory by eliminating multiple cable types
• CAT 6 performance
bull; Adjustable tension control on reel prevents over spin and entangling of cable
• Resists damp conditions that might weaken standard packages
• Allows both ends of a cable run to be easily identifiable without the need to separately label or tone the cable
• Provides remaining length of cable on reel
• Easily identifiable conductor mates even in low-light environments
• Facilitates easy opening
• No heavy metals; and no toxic components
