Frequently Asked Questions
What does the snagless boot feature do?
The snagless boot covers the RJ-45 tab to prevent it from catching or breaking when pulling the cable through cable management pathways.
Is this cable suitable for use in plenum air spaces?
No, this cable is CMR rated (Non-Plenum). It is intended for general riser applications and should not be used in environmental air-handling spaces.
Does this cable support both T568A and T568B wiring?
Yes, the cable is wired to support universal wiring configurations.
What is the conductor size?
This cable uses 24 AWG stranded copper conductors.
Is this cable shielded?
No, this is an unshielded (UTP) cable.
