Product Details

6-pair UTP cable, with Category 5e (ANSI/TIA-568-C.2) performance, is the solution to a growing number of special installation needs. More customers are demanding two additional pairs above the standard 4-pair cable for high-bandwidth applications. Two additional pairs provide the flexibility for utility metering and other telemetry needs without the expense of adding a separate cable and without additional space. The Superior Essex 6-pair CAT 5e cable delivers the performance expected, while offering the many features and user advantages of all our high performance premises products.

Features
• Two additional pairs in excess of the standard 4-pair construction
• ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 compliance
• CableID® alpha numeric code printed every 2 feet
• QuickCount® marking system in feet and meters
• Warrantied with all leading connectivity manufacturers

Benefits
• Eliminates expense of additional cable when 6-pair are required, reduces cabling space requirements; speeds installation time
• Any of the 6-pair can be used for CAT 5e applications
• Allows both ends of a cable run to be easily identifiable without the need to separately label or tone the cable
• Eliminates guesswork of footage on reel and reduces scrap
• Offers flexibility in selection of connectivity solutions
