Product Description
What this is
A 1m cut length of outdoor-rated CAT6 U/UTP cable, 23AWG solid bare copper, sold from reel for custom termination with RJ45 plugs, keystone jacks or IDC patch panels.
Key specs
- 23AWG solid copper conductors — lower insertion loss and resistance than thinner 24-26AWG cable, supporting 10GBase-T to 55m and 1GBase-T to 100m.
- 4-pair U/UTP construction exceeding ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 Cat6, with HDPE insulation holding pair geometry for NEXT/PSNEXT crosstalk rejection.
- PoE support to IEEE 802.3bt (up to 100W) over extended external runs — check your PoE switch or injector budget against camera or access-point draw.
- 550MHz bandwidth, suited to IP CCTV, outdoor access points, access control and structured cabling backbones.
- Black PE/LDPE UV-stabilised jacket, rated for external duct, catenary suspension or facade mounting subject to local regulations.
- Approx. 6.0-6.5mm overall diameter — fits standard 20mm conduit and outdoor-rated IP67 RJ45 glands.
- Sequential metre marking on the jacket, useful for recording run lengths during Fluke/DSX certification.
Why 1m
Reel-cut lengths let you terminate exactly what's needed for a patch lead, a short field run to a camera or AP, or testing before committing to a longer pull — no waste, no re-ordering odd lengths.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this cable fit standard conduit?
Yes — it measures approximately 6.0-6.5mm overall diameter, which fits standard 20mm conduit and outdoor-rated IP67 RJ45 glands.
What Ethernet speeds does it support?
10GBase-T up to 55m and 1GBase-T up to 100m, per the cable's 23AWG solid copper construction and Cat6 rating.
Can it power PoE cameras or access points?
It supports PoE up to IEEE 802.3bt (up to 100W) over extended runs — check your switch or injector's PoE budget against the device's draw.
Is it suitable for outdoor installation?
Yes — it has a black PE/LDPE UV-stabilised jacket rated for external duct, catenary suspension or facade mounting, subject to local installation regulations.
