ProLink CAT6 U/UTP Cable PVC Orange 305m (Model: PL-C6-PVC-OR) is a professional Category 6 cable designed for campus, riser, horizontal, and outdoor structured cabling installations. Designed for cross-connect fields, data closets, and telecommunications outlets, it features an orange PVC jacket, a non-metallic cross separator (spline) that helps reduce pair-to-pair crosstalk, and a waterproof compound-filled core that prevents moisture migration. The cable complies with ISO/IEC 11801, IEC 61156-5, EN 50173-1, and TIA 568-C.2, supporting Gigabit Ethernet, ATM, and IEEE 802.3af/at PoE applications.
