Overview

The Panduit TX6500 Cat 6 U/UTP Plenum copper cable (SKU: PUP6504OR-UY) delivers reliable high-speed data transmission for commercial and industrial networks. Constructed with 23 AWG solid copper conductors and FEP/polyolefin insulation, this cable ensures minimal signal loss and superior noise immunity. The four twisted pairs are separated by a cross divider to maintain consistent pair-to-pair spacing, reducing crosstalk and ensuring compliance with TIA/EIA-568-C.2 Cat 6 standards. The flame-retardant PVC (CMP-rated) orange jacket meets NEC requirements for plenum spaces, making it ideal for air-handling environments where fire safety is critical. Packaged on a 1000 ft (305m) reel in a sturdy box, the TX6500 is optimized for structured cabling systems in offices, data centers, hospitals, and educational facilities. Its UTP design eliminates the need for shielding, simplifying installation while maintaining performance up to 250 MHz bandwidth. The cable’s compact 23 AWG design reduces bulk in conduit and cable trays, while the FEP/polyolefin insulation provides excellent temperature stability (-20°C to 85°C) and chemical resistance. Suitable for 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet, VoIP, and PoE applications, this cable supports Gigabit Ethernet with headroom for future upgrades. Panduit’s TX6500 is a cost-effective solution for high-density installations where performance and safety compliance are non-negotiable.
