Monoprice™ 23AWG Cat6A 550MHz F/UTP Solid, Riser‑Rated (CMR) Bulk Pure Bare Copper Ethernet Cable is premium, high‑speed cabling designed for use in 10GBase‑T (10Gbps) network environments. Constructed using 23AWG solid, pure bare copper conductors with a CMR‑rated PVC jacket, it exceeds TIA/EIA 568‑C.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 UL‑listed and RoHS compliant.Features: Foiled/Unshielded Twisted Pair (F/UTP) Category 6A Ethernet cable23AWG solid, pure bare copper conductorsCMR (Riser) fire safety rating550MHz bandwidthDesigned for use in 10GBase‑T (10Gbps) network environmentsExceeds ANSI® TIA/EIA 568‑C.2 standardsUL® listed and RoHS compliant500‑foot wooden spoolMonoprice™ Ethernet cables are made of 100% pure bare copper wire, as opposed to copper clad aluminum (CCA) wire, and are therefore fully compliant with UL® Code 444 and National Electrical Code® TIA‑568‑C.2 fire and safety standards, which require pure bare copper wire in communications cables.CategoryCat5eCat6Cat6ACat8/8.2Standard Bandwidth/Frequency100MHz (Up to 350MHz)250MHz (up to 550MHz)350MHz (up to 550MHz)2000MHzMaximum Data Rate1000Mbps1Gbps10Gbps25GbpsShielding TypeUTP or STP (F/UTP)UTP or STP (F/UTP)UTP or STP (F/UTP)Shielded (S/FTP) OnlyMaximum Cable Distance100m100m
