Monoprice 23AWG Cat6A 550MHz F/UTP Solid, RiserRated (CMR) Bulk Pure Bare Copper Ethernet Cable is premium, highspeed cabling designed for use in 10GBaseT (10Gbps) network environments. Constructed using 23AWG solid, pure bare copper conductors with a CMRrated PVC jacket, it exceeds TIA/EIA 568C. 2 standards and is safe for use in the Riser spaces of commercial class buildings. F/UTP cables are a hybrid between shielded (STP) and unshielded (UTP) type cables, incorporating an overall foil shield, while leaving the twisted pairs unshielded. This cable is ULlisted and RoHS compliant.

Features:


Foiled/Unshielded Twisted Pair (F/UTP) Category 6A Ethernet cable

23AWG solid, pure bare copper conductors

CMR (Riser) fire safety rating

Ideal Use

Enhanced features with the best pricing for residential and commercial networking

A good budget option for new network builds with a bandwidth that can handle most small to medium-sized businesses

A good budget option for long network builds with a bandwidth that can handle most small to medium-sized businesses, best performance for servers data centers

Should only be considered coppered in-network environments where speed is very important.
