This Category 6 UTP cable meets rigorous transmission standards including ANSI/TIA-568.2-D, ISO/IEC 11801 Class E, and CENELEC EN 50288-6-1. The network cable features CM (Communications) rating per UL 1685, making it suitable for general purpose commercial installations. Environmental compliance includes RoHS, China-RoHS, UK-RoHS, and REACH-SVHC requirements.

The Category 6 U/UTP cable operates using precisely twisted copper pair technology to maintain signal integrity while minimizing electromagnetic interference. The four individually twisted pairs within the network cable maintain specific twist ratios that effectively cancel external noise and reduce internal crosstalk. This UTP cable design utilizes balanced differential signaling principles, where electromagnetic interference affecting both conductors in a pair is effectively canceled at the receiving end.

This CM rated UTP cable is ideal for general purpose commercial installations including office buildings, retail spaces, educational facilities, and healthcare environments. The network cable is particularly suitable for horizontal cabling in spaces that don't require plenum rated materials.

The CS30CM Category 6 UTP cable offers significant value through its combination of reliable performance, CM fire rating, and cost-effective design. Compared to plenum rated cables, this network cable provides substantial cost savings while meeting the requirements for most commercial installations.

CommScope provides comprehensive technical support for all NETCONNECT products, including this Category 6 CM rated cable. The network cable is manufactured under stringent quality control standards and complies with global environmental regulations.

CM (Communications) rating indicates that this UTP cable is suitable for general purpose commercial installations in spaces between floors, but not in air handling spaces (plenums). The network cable meets specific flame spread requirements for these applications.

This Category 6 UTP cable supports Gigabit Ethernet, VoIP, video surveillance, and various data networking applications in commercial environments that don't require plenum rated cabling.

Yes, this network cable fully complies with IEEE 802.3bt (Type 4) recommendations for safe Power over Ethernet delivery when installed according to relevant international standards.

When installing this Category 6 UTP cable, maintain a minimum bend radius of 4 times the outer cable diameter to prevent performance degradation. The CM rating makes this network cable suitable for general purpose commercial installations, but it should not be used in plenum spaces.
