Discover Why Cat6 Riser Cable Delivers Unbeatable Performance

For wired networking ethernet cables are mostly favorable due their fast transmission speed and performance. However, the Cat6 riser cable is among the top category cables in terms of getting a high-speed internet connection. The cable is used to connect with LAN and WAN which later on connect to various hardware devices. Cat6 riser cable has several advanced features that make this cable a fine investment in your network cabling structure.

About Cat6 Ethernet Cable

Cat6 ethernet cable is the next generation cable with high-speed specification and better bandwidth speed that makes it resilient enough to be used for various applications. This cable comes with a CCA conductor which has good qualities in transferring data at a fast speed. The CCA (Copper-Clad Aluminum) is actually made up of aluminum coated with copper and that is why the cable is cost-effective, flexible, and reliable for use. 

What’s Inside The Cat6 Ethernet Cable

The cat 6 riser ethernet cable has 8 separated conductor wires covered with a PE insulation layer. All these 8 wires have color codes that are used to make 4 twisted pairs. Furthermore, inside cat6 there is a spline – it separates 4 twisted pairs so that pair-to-pair crosstalk is minimized. The twisted pair also helps in reducing crosstalk (Alien Crosstalk and Near-End Crosstalk) and signal interference. The cable has a fiber-like thread commonly known as a rip cord to break the cable jacket more easily.

Besides this, the cat6 riser cable 1000ft has several features that make this cable to buy for your networking needs. Some of the major advantages are as follows.

• Cost-effective cabling solution
• Good electrical conductivity
• Lightweight
• Easy to terminate cable
• Adequate for shorter length runs
• Backward compatibility
• Heat resistivity jacket

These are some of the major characteristics of the cat6 riser cable. Now let's know about the speed specs and bandwidth of the Cat6 (CMR) riser cable. 

Speed Of Category 6 Riser Cable

For installation of ethernet cables, long runs and short runs length of the cable are seen widely. Similar is the case with the Cat6 riser ethernet cable, it can be used for shorter and longer runs. However, speed specifications are changed due to an increase or decrease in the length of the cable. 

For longer runs — 100 meters (328 ft), the cat6 riser cable delivers a maximum speed of 1 Gbps. Likewise, for 50 meters (164 ft), the cable delivers a maximum speed of 10 Gbps. It has also a high bandwidth of 550 MHz that is ideal to support fast ethernet applications.

Just like speed and internal properties are mandatory to know similarly ethernet cable outer jacket has some of the distinguishing features that make it apart from other jackets used for specific installation locations. With such speed specifications, the cable can support fast ethernet applications as

• 100/1000BASE-T
• 10GBASE-T
• Audio/Video streaming
• IoT (Internet of Things)
• VoIP
• 100 VG ANYLAN

Cat6 Riser Jacket — Explanation

For every ethernet cable there is outer plastic sheathing that protects the cable from the outside environment and also its internal conductor. The acronym for the Cat6 riser cable is “CMR” which means (Communication Multipurpose Riser) and is printed on the cat6 CMR riser cable. 

The riser is made up of PVC material (Polyvinyl Chloride) that exhibits fire resistance properties to prevent the cable from setting on fire. The riser also emits less toxic smoke and therefore can be used to install in non-plenum spaces of the building. 

You can install a Cat6 riser cable 1000ft inside walls, elevator shafts, and any vertical space of the building. The riser cat 6 cable is a cost-effective solution to buy.

Final Stage — Packaging

For quality assurance, our Cat6 riser cable is assembled in China under expert engineers. The cable is packed in an easy-to-pull box for unrolling the cable more easily without damaging the cable. The diameter of the opening cone is large enough to unroll the cable to minimize the risk of kinks or damage to the conductor.

In addition to this, the cable has sequential “ft” markings on the entire length of the cable. This is for the ease for the user to identify the remaining length of the cable and to utilize the length as suggested. The cat6 riser cable is 1000 ft long for easy installation and if you are confused about the length you must buy the 1000ft cat6 cable in riser jacket just to make sure you have an ideal installation for your networking needs.
