Overview

The Panduit TX6A Cat 6A F/UTP Riser copper cable (SKU: PFR6X04BU-CG) is engineered for reliable data transmission in riser applications. This cable features 23 AWG copper conductors, each insulated with High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) for enhanced signal integrity. The conductors are twisted into pairs and separated by a central cross divider, minimizing crosstalk and interference. An overall metallic shield provides robust protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI), ensuring consistent performance. The cable is jacketed in flame-retardant PVC (CMR) and finished in a distinctive blue color for easy identification. Supplied on a 1000ft (305m) reel, this cable meets the requirements for Category 6A performance, supporting data rates up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet. Its construction is designed for vertical runs within buildings, adhering to riser fire safety standards. The PFR6X04BU-CG is manufactured in the USA, ensuring quality and adherence to stringent production protocols. This cable is an essential component for structured cabling systems requiring high bandwidth and dependable connectivity in commercial and industrial environments.
