Belden Inc. D6UP 004U1000 Cat6 Plenum Cable 4 Pair

Product Description

The BELDEN INC. D6UP 004U1000 is a Category 6 unshielded twisted pair plenum-rated cable designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and institutional buildings. It features four pairs of 23 AWG solid bare copper conductors, constructed to meet the transmission performance requirements of Cat6 standards. The plenum jacket rating makes it suitable for installation in air-handling spaces and plenum ceiling environments where fire and smoke propagation codes apply. Licensed low-voltage cabling technicians and structured cabling contractors are the primary installers of this cable.

This cable is intended for horizontal runs in plenum-rated environments including office buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, and data centers. It supports Ethernet data transmission and is suited for runs from telecommunications rooms to work area outlets. The plenum construction meets the stricter smoke and flame requirements mandated by building codes for air-handling spaces. It is sold per unit as indicated by the unit of measure designation.

Key Features

• Category 6 rated for high-speed Ethernet data transmission performance
• 23 AWG solid bare copper conductors provide consistent signal integrity
• 4-pair unshielded twisted pair construction for standard horizontal cabling
• Plenum-rated jacket suitable for installation in air-handling ceiling and floor spaces
• Meets fire and smoke propagation requirements for plenum environments per applicable building codes

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style plenum Cat6 horizontal cable for use with standard RJ45 keystone jacks, patch panels, and modular connectors rated for Category 6 termination in structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage or structured cabling technician in accordance with ANSI/TIA-568 standards and applicable local building codes. De-energize any adjacent electrical systems and follow proper cable management practices to avoid sharp bends that exceed the cable minimum bend radius. Plenum-rated cable must be used in any air-handling space as required by the National Electrical Code (NEC) Article 800. Do not exceed the maximum pulling tension rating for the cable during installation.
