Technical Specifications

0E-CAT6PWH — Cat6 Plenum (CMP), 23AWG Solid, 1000 ft, White

Need reliable gigabit cabling that passes plenum code and just works? This Cat6 CMP reel-in-box uses 23 AWG solid bare copper, FEP insulation, and a low-smoke, flame-retardant plenum PVC jacket to deliver clean signal, easier pulls, and peace-of-mind in air-handling spaces. Sweep tested to 500 MHz and verified to TIA Cat6, it’s built for 10/100/1000BASE-T, PoE, and digital video runs without the interference gremlins. 

Key Features

  • Plenum-rated CMP/FT6 — Low-smoke, flame-retardant jacket for code-compliant installs in return-air spaces. 
  • 23 AWG solid copper conductors — Better performance over distance vs. CCA; stable termination and PoE. 
  • FEP insulation + FR spline — Helps maintain pair geometry and crosstalk performance up to 500 MHz sweep. 
  • Verified to ANSI/TIA-568 Cat6 — UL verified; sweep tested to 500 MHz for headroom. 
  • Installer-friendly — Nominal Ø 0.232", 1.0" min bend radius, 25 lb max pulling force for cleaner runs. 
  • Wide temp range — Install +32 to +140 °F; storage/operation −4 to +167 °F. 
  • PoE-ready — Supports IEEE 802.3af DTE Power with 10/100/1000BASE-T and digital video.
