Cat6 Cable Recommended for Outdoor or Harsh Indoor Environments This 23-foot (seven-meter) Cat6 CMR-LP outdoor cable is ideal for connecting Gigabit Ethernet networks or digital signage in outdoor applications and other areas where protection from harsh elements is essential, such as factories, warehouses, recycling plants, machine shops and other dusty environments. The RJ45 connectors feature durable enclosures designed to withstand dust, debris and moisture that could threaten your IT infrastructure. Included dust caps protect the connectors when not in use. IP68 Rating Denotes Resistance to Dust and Water The IP68 rating means the Cat6 cable is not only 100% protected against dust, but also able to endure immersion in 1.5 meters of water for up to 60 minutes with no damage or decline in performance. For applications that require IP68 protection, use the industrial cable with a Tripp Lite N206-SB01-IND surface-mount box and a N206-BC01-IND bulkhead coupler or N206-KJ01-IND keystone jack. If only IP44 protection against splashing water from all directions is required, pair the cable with a N206-FP01-IND, N206-FP02-IND or N206-FP04-IND metal wall plate and a N206-BC01-IND bulkhead coupler or N206-KJ01-IND keystone jack. Supports Power over Ethernet to Save You Money and Give You More Installation Choices Because this Cat6 cable supports High-Power 100W PoE (71W at device end), it can supply the power to operate compatible data, voice, security and audio/video PoE devices, such as security cameras, VoIP telephones and access control devices. This saves you the expense and effort of purchasing, connecting and installing individual power supplies for each device. It also helps you install PoE devices in areas far away from AC outlets, such as poles or ceilings. CMR-LP Certified for Cable Installations with Increased Power Levels UL''s Limited Power (LP) certification indicates the N200P-023BL-IND has been evaluated to handle the marked current under installation scenarios without exceeding the temperature rating of the cable. This CMR-LP-certified cable provides a simple way to prepare installations for increased power levels without having to worry about susceptible issues caused by excessive heat. Color-Coded to Avoid Misidentification That Can Cause Costly Downtime This Cat6 UTP patch cable features a blue PVC jacket. The color-coding allows easy, fast identification in a crowded rack, patch panel or workstation and helps prevent the cable from becoming inadvertently disconnected.
