Technos Cat 6 Cable (305M)

Technos Cat 6 is a UTP network (LAN) cable that we cut to the length you need from a 305 m box, so you only pay for the metres you use. It’s a semi-copper cable, which means copper-clad aluminium (CCA): an aluminium core with a thin copper coating.

Technos Cat 6 cable highlights

• Sold by the metre: buy exactly the length you need.
• 4 twisted pairs, 23 AWG conductors, PVC jacket.
• Good value for short home and small-office runs.

Who the Technos Cat 6 cable is for

A good fit if you’re wiring a home, shop or small office and the runs are short.

Look at something else if you’re powering PoE cameras or access points, running long distances, or need a certified Cat 6 installation. Semi-copper (CCA) cable has higher resistance than pure copper and doesn’t meet Cat 6 certification standards, so choose a solid copper cable for those jobs.

Technos Cat 6 cable questions

What does semi-copper mean?

It’s copper-clad aluminium (CCA): an aluminium core with a thin copper skin. It’s cheaper than pure copper but has higher resistance, so it suits short data runs better than long runs or PoE.

Can I use it for CCTV cameras powered over the network (PoE)?

For PoE we recommend a pure copper Cat 6 cable. CCA cable runs warmer and can drop voltage over longer runs.

Is it sold by the metre?

Yes. We cut it from a 305 m box to the length you ask for.

Technos doesn’t publish a datasheet for this cable, so the details above are from our product listing.
