CAT6 250-MHz Bulk Cables support current
applications, like 100BASE-TX (Fast Ethernet), 100BASE-VG,
and 155- or 622-Mbps ATM. In addition, this cable is ideal
for use in your future high-speed applications, such as
1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet).

for use in your future high-speed applications, such as
1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet).
CAT6 250-MHz Bulk Cables consist of four solid-conductor,
unshielded twisted pairs, constructed of 23 AWG solid, bare
copper. The PVC versions are insulated with polyolefin, and
the plenum versions have FEP insulation.
copper. The PVC versions are insulated with polyolefin, and
the plenum versions have FEP insulation.
All cables come on 1000-foot (304.8-m) reels and are
available in various colors. Each cable features central-slit filler
film, a ripcord, and flexible jacket. All jackets are sequentially
marked at two-foot intervals. Copper pairs are distinguished
by these colors:

CAT6 250-MHz Bulk Cables are also smart-priced solutions
for high-speed networking. For example, you get super-
reliable 250-MHz performance, compared to 100-MHz
Category 5 and 5e. And since these cables come in 1000-ft.

CAT6 250-MHz Bulk Cables also meet tougher require-
ments than Category 5 and 5e cables, especially with the
standards for system noise and the limitation of various forms
of crosstalk.
standards for system noise and the limitation of various forms
of crosstalk.
The Category 6 standard is defined per frequency for
attenuation, characteristic impedance, and five different
categories of loss and delay skew for cable performance.
categories of loss and delay skew for cable performance.
For example, Category 6 measures attenuation (minimum
at 100 MHz) at 19.8 dB, which is much more stringent than
the 22-dB measurement for Category 5 and 5e.
