Frequently Asked Questions
What does the CMR rating mean?
CMR stands for Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser. It means the cable jacket is rated for use in vertical shafts and riser spaces within buildings.
Are these cables shielded?
No, these are unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cables.
Can these cables be used for Gigabit Ethernet?
Yes, Cat 6 cabling is designed to support Gigabit Ethernet speeds.
Does this cable support both T568A and T568B?
Yes, it is designed for universal wiring compatibility.
Are the boots removable?
The boots are typically integrated into the connector assembly to provide strain relief.
