Frequently Asked Questions
What does CMR rating mean?
CMR stands for Communications Multipurpose Cable, Riser. It indicates that the cable jacket is rated for use in vertical shafts or riser spaces between floors in a building.
Are these cables compatible with T568A and T568B wiring?
Yes, these cables are designed with universal wiring, meaning they are compatible with both T568A and T568B standards.
What is the conductor gauge?
These cables utilize 24 AWG stranded conductors for balanced performance and flexibility.
What is the purpose of the snagless boot?
The snagless boot covers the RJ45 connector latch, preventing it from catching on other cables or hardware during installation or removal.
Can this cable be used for Gigabit Ethernet?
Yes, as a Cat 6 rated cable, it is designed to support high-speed Gigabit Ethernet applications.
