CAT6 Ethernet Cable Classification
CAT6 cables, designed for high-speed networks (up to 10Gbps at 55 meters), are classified into three main types based on shielding:
• UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair): The most common type, with no shielding layer. It’s cost-effective, flexible, and suitable for home networks, small offices, and areas with low electromagnetic interference (EMI).
• STP (Shielded Twisted Pair): Features a metal braid shield around each pair and the entire cable. It blocks strong EMI from industrial equipment or power lines, making it ideal for factories or server rooms.
• FTP (Foil Twisted Pair): Uses aluminum foil for shielding. It offers moderate EMI protection and is thinner than STP, perfect for tight spaces like wall cavities.
All our CAT6 cables use high-purity copper conductors and durable PVC jackets, ensuring stable signal transmission. Choose the right type based on your environment—we provide all three variants for diverse needs.
