TruLAN Cat 6 UTP Shotgun Cable

TruLAN Cat 6 UTP Shotgun Cable

The Cat 6 shotgun cable is offered in both PVC grey and LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) yellow. Cat 6 shotgun will provide you with easy installation, saving you both time and money.

Both Cat 6 cables are unscreened and have been tested beyond 500MHz and manufactured to the highest standards using virgin materials and pure electrolytic copper to ensure fast, accurate data transmission. This incorporates a cross member to separate each pair, delivering the best signal quality to your equipment.

The benefits of running voice, data or video over the same cabling system are considerable. The versatility of the latest structured wiring systems ensure confidence that future needs can be easily met with minimal expense or inconvenience to other network users.

CPR-Compliant options are available for this cable and are indicated in the product table. For the latest information on CPR for Cables, you can visit our dedicated CPR Explained web page.
