Fire Resistant CAT6 Data Cables
FFX-CAT6U/UTP4P23FR
FFX-CAT6F/UTP4P23FR
FFX-CAT6SF/UTP4P23FR
APPLICATION：
Cat6 Cable is a cable standard for Gigabit Ethernet and other network protocol, suitable for 10BaseT, 100BaseTx & 1000BaseT (Gigabit Ethernet) application. In addition, these cables can be offered with copper wire braid armoured & flame retardant outer sheath, providing additional mechanically protection still maintaining the flexibility of the cable.
STANDARDS：
Basic design adapted to EN 50173

|---|---|
| Flame Retardance (Single Vertical Wire or cable test) | IEC 60332-1-2; EN 60332-1-2 |
| Reduced Fire Propagation (Vertically-mounted bundled wires & cables test) | IEC 60332-3-24; EN 60332-3-24 |
| Halogen Free | IEC 60754-1; EN 50267-2-1 |
| No Corrosive Gas Emission | IEC 60754-2; EN 50267-2-2 |
| Minimum Smoke Emission | IEC 61034-2; EN 61034-2 |
CABLE CONSTRUCTION：
| Conductor | 23AWG solid bare copper. |
|---|---|
| Insulation | HDPE+SR. |
| Twinning | Two coloured insulated conductors twisted together to form a pair. |
| Overall Fire Barrier | Mica glass tape. |
| Outer Sheath | Halogen-free flame retardant thermoplastic LSZH compound type LTS3 as per BS 7655-6.1 (Thermosetting LSZH compound type SW2-SW4 as per BS 7655-2.6 can be offered). |
| Outer Sheath Option | UV resistance, hydrocarbon resistance, oil resistance, anti-rodent and anti-termite properties can be offered as option. |
| Cat6F/UTP | These cables have collective shielding of Aluminium/polyester tape with drain wire. |
| Cat6SF/UTP | These cables have double collective shielding of Aluminium/polyester tape & copper wire braid with drain wire. |
