This 23AWG Cat 6 Plenum, 90' Blue, is one product in our line of handmade Cat6 Plenum cables. Unlike Riser cables and other non Plenum data cables which may be made using materials such as PVC which can be harmful in the event of a fire, our Plenum rated cables have a Plenum jacket which makes them much safer for use in plenum spaces such as ventilation systems since they will not circulate harmful smoke throughout a building if they were to get caught in a fire. It is important to remember that Cat 6 Riser rated network cables (sometimes marketed as cable Risers) are not sufficient replacements for a Plenum Cat6 Ethernet cable.
It is also worth noting that, unless otherwise stated, most of our Communications Plenum (CMP) Category 6 cable products are built with Unshielded Twisted Pair Cable (UTP Cable). While a shielded Cat6 cable reduces the effect of crosstalk and other electromagnetic interferences (EMI), this is generally unneeded in Plenum areas. With that being said, we do offer 1000ft STP Cat6 Plenum cable spools here if you decide it is the right cable type for completing your network. While our lines of Cat6 cables easily exceed the speeds of any Cat5e cable, some professionals require even greater speeds. In these cases, we would instead recommend our bulk Cat6a Ethernet cabling which can be viewed here. If needed, we also carry other bulk cabling available in a pull box.
* 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.
