Elevate your indoor networking infrastructure with our reliable CAT6 Riser-Rated Ethernet Cable, designed for high-speed Gigabit performance and code-compliant safety in vertical installations. This unshielded UTP Cat6 bulk cable features heavy-duty 23 AWG solid copper conductors and a flame-retardant CMR PVC jacket, delivering seamless 600MHz data transmission through walls, riser shafts, and cable trays. UL-listed for quality assurance, it's the perfect choice for non-plenum spaces requiring low attenuation, extended PoE reach, and long-term durability.

Engineered specifically for vertical runs between floors, this professional-grade riser cable combines heavy-duty 23AWG conductors with CMR fire safety rating for code-compliant multi-story installations. The thicker 23AWG gauge provides lower resistance than standard 24AWG cable, delivering superior PoE performance and extended reach for long vertical runs. With 600MHz bandwidth exceeding ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standards and UL/c(UL)us certification, it ensures reliable performance and safety compliance for commercial and residential multi-floor networking.
