Cat6 Plenum Patch Cables, 15' Blue, which meet NFPA standards while also exceeding the network speeds offered by our custom Cat 5e Plenum patch cords. These Category 6 CMP Rated cable products should be compatible with all standard Cat 6 cable assemblies and accessories, including the proper cable modems, patch panels, and routers. Unlike more standard Cat6 cables such as a Riser cable, the Cat6 Plenum cables shown here are authorized for use in Plenum spaces such as air ducts and other ventilation systems. The most important aspect of communications Plenum rated cables, also known as CMP cables, is their Plenum jacket. While it is not a major concern for standard gigabit Ethernet cables outside of air circulation systems, non-Plenum cables could release harmful smoke in the event that they catch fire. However, if a non-Plenum cord caught fire in one or more Plenum areas, it could quickly circulate that smoke throughout the building. That is why Plenum cables, such as the Cat6 Ethernet cables shown here, do not contain those same harmful materials as outlined by the NFPA.
It is worth noting that nearly all our Cat6 Plenum cable lines, including the cable shown here, are solid conductor cable products which stands for Unshielded Twisted Pair. Solid cables are sturdier but less flexible than the alternative stranded cables, but that added flexibility is generally unnecessary for a Plenum Ethernet cable. With that in mind, we do offer 1000ft bulk cable spools of stranded network cables with a Plenum jacket here in a variety of colors (such as black, white, blue, gray, and more) if you require such a product.
* Please note as these are custom and made on demand there may be a lead time of 1 to 5 days before they are shipped depending on backlog and order size.
