Wirepath NST-CAT6PL-1000-GRY Cat 6 Plenum Cable

Product Description

The WIREPATH NST-CAT6PL-1000-GRY is a Cat 6 plenum-rated bulk ethernet cable supplied in a 1000-foot pull box. The plenum jacket compound meets the smoke and flame spread requirements for air-handling spaces, making it the required choice wherever cable runs through return-air plenums, dropped ceilings used as HVAC ducts, or raised-access floors in commercial and institutional buildings. Low-voltage installers and data/voice cabling contractors use this cable for structured cabling backbone and horizontal runs in new construction and retrofit projects where fire code mandates plenum-rated materials.

This cable is suited for commercial office builds, schools, healthcare facilities, and any structured cabling project governed by local fire codes requiring CMP-rated cable in air-handling spaces. The gray jacket color is a common field standard for identifying horizontal data runs, and the 1000-foot box format is designed for clean, tangle-free pulls through conduit or open plenum spaces.

Key Features

• Plenum-rated jacket for installation in air-handling spaces per applicable fire codes
• Cat 6 performance supports Gigabit Ethernet and 10GBase-T applications at shorter distances
• 1000-foot pull box format for efficient long cable runs
• Gray jacket color for easy identification in structured cabling systems
• Sold as a single 1000-foot box (one unit per order)

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Cat 6 plenum bulk cable suitable for use with keystone jacks, patch panels, and termination hardware that accept 23 AWG or 24 AWG Cat 6 conductors in commercial structured cabling installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage cabling technician following ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards and local fire and building codes. Verify that plenum-rated cable is required by the authority having jurisdiction before substituting CMP for CMR or riser-rated products. Observe minimum bend radius and pulling tension limits during installation to avoid degrading cable performance. Power down any active equipment at patch panels or switches before terminating new cable runs.
