It also separates the pairs to further eliminate crosstalk.Our cables are manufactured with 100% bare copper wire, NOT copper clad aluminum (CCA) wire.Supports all your devicesTVServerMedia ServerGaming ConsoleWi-Fi RouterPrinterComputer/LaptopTelephoneCommonly referred to as:Cat6A CableCat6A Ethernet CableCat 6A Network CablePhone CableLAN CableRJ45 WireCategory Cable Review: Excellent High-Quality Cable That Is Very Difficult to Terminate - APPEARANCE Cable is Matte White color, interior wires are clearly color coded with no issue. HANDLING CHARACTERISTICS This is a low-flex cable that has a much higher bending radius than other CAT cables. DURABILITY Cable is extremely well made, exterior material seems to be PVC jacketed with a great deal of UV protection. Cable is foil-wrapped with cloth interior. This is probably the highest quality CAT cable I've ever seen in my professional career. SPECIFICATION ADHERENCE This cables adheres to all of the design specifications for CAT6A (to my knowledge), networking hardware had no issues negotiating at 1000mbit (didn't try at 10Mbit) even when wire was located near power cables or at long distances. TERMINATION DIFFICULTY All of the added features of this cable makes it extremely difficult to terminate with RJ45 Connectors (although no issue with Keystone Jacks). If you plan on terminating with RJ45 ends, I would strongly suggest buying some that are rated for CAT6a cables to accommodate this cable. During termination, I found it helpful to untwist the wires and massage the wires straight before termination. This process will take some practice and you will likely become frustrated (I did). Practice terminating on the bench before doing it in the field. OVERALL IMPRESSIONS This is a great high quality cable when you are faced with difficult drops that have lots of EMI issues, have long transmission distances, or require outdoor runs that are exposed to sunlight. I keep a roll on the truck for these situations just in case. Review: High quality cable. Easy to work with. - trueCABLE Cat6A Direct Burial, 500ft, Waterproof, Outdoor Rated CMX, Black, 23AWG Solid Bare Copper, 750MHz, PoE++ This is a high quality cable. It was really easy to work with and make my runs. My use was at home. My runs are all in the attic, sub-space and some outdoor - none buried. If you are looking for a supple cable, this isn't it. By design it is more rigid than other cables. That said - I had no issue making patch cables for indoor use - 2ft, 3ft , 7ft, 10ft. Not the best for making sharp 90 degree bends, but a gradual 90 wasn't an issue for me. I found attaching the connectors to be easier than indoor (lighter) cable. The rigidity of the wire helped. You will need to be sure that the connectors you have can accommodate the thicker cable. Out of maybe a dozen or so runs I made, from 10' to 100', I only had to re-do 2 connectors. In both cases it was user error (me) or connector flaw. ## Features - [High Performance Network Cable] Our outdoor cat 6A lan cable is 23 AWG with 4 pairs (8C). The overall aluminum (AL) foil shield helps eliminate cross-talk and prevents electromagnetic interference (EMI). Suitable for 1 Gigabit and 10-Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 328 feet. Bandwidth tested up to 750 MHz. Supports Power over Ethernet: PoE/PoE+/PoE++ (IEEE 802.3af/at/bt) 4PPoE up to 100W. - [Hassle Free Packaging] 500 feet (152 meters) comes conveniently pre-spooled on a tangle free, easy pull reel so you don’t have to worry about getting behind on your next job. - [Solid Bare Copper Conductors] Pure bare copper conductors offer superior signal strength, conductivity, and flexibility compared to cheaper copper clad aluminum (CCA) options. Choose pure copper for a stronger, more reliable connection. - [Direct Burial Rated] UV resistant jacket designed to withstand sunlight, dirt, snow, and moisture. Rugged and durable for extreme environments. Bury directly in the ground or use in conduit. - [✓ Certified by trueCABLE] Our data cables have been tested with a DSX-8000 Versiv CableAnalyzer and are in compliance with ANSI/TIA 568.2-D standards, RoHS-3 compliant, and cETLus certified. Backed by our FOREVER WARRANTY. Compatibility & performance tested with trueCABLE RJ45 Connectors - B088KSVHYR. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09CR62FWW | | Best Sellers Rank | #113,393 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #499 in Electrical Wire | | Brand | TRUE CABLE | | Brand Name | TRUE CABLE | | Cable Type | Ethernet | | Cable type | Ethernet | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Laptop, Personal Computer, Printer, Router, Server, Television | | Compatible Phone Models | Potentially compatible with smartphones, specific models unknown | | Compatible devices | Laptop, Personal Computer, Printer, Router, Server, Television | | Compatible phone models | Potentially compatible with smartphones, specific models unknown | | Connectivity Technology | Ethernet | | Connector Gender | Male-to-Male | | Connector Type | RJ45 | | Connector type | RJ45 | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 197 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 1 Gigabits Per Second | | Ethernet Cable Category | Cat 6 | | Frequency | 750 MHz | | Gauge | 23.0 | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Item Shape | Round | | Item Weight | 8.8 kg | | Manufacturer | trueCABLE | | Maximum Current | 4.17 Amps | | Model | 6ASCMXBLK_500rl | | Model Name | 6ASCMXBLK_500rl | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pins | 8 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Tangle Free, UV Resistant, Waterproof | | Part Number | 6ASCMXBLK_500rl | | Recommended Uses For Product | water | | Special features | Tangle Free, UV Resistant, Waterproof | | Specification Met | ANSI, IEEE, RoHS, TIA | | UPC | 656485220282 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Wattage | 100 watts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** TRUE CABLE - **Connector type:** RJ45 - **Cable type:** Ethernet - **Compatible devices:** Laptop, Personal Computer, Printer, Router, Server, Television - **Special features:** Tangle Free, UV Resistant, Waterproof ## Images ![TRUE CABLE Cat6A Direct Burial, Shielded FTP, 500ft, Waterproof, Outdoor Rated CMX, Black, 23AWG Solid Bare Copper, 750MHz, PoE++ (4PPoE), ETL Listed, Bulk Ethernet - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71rFh8CYgSL.jpg) ![TRUE CABLE Cat6A Direct Burial, Shielded FTP, 500ft, Waterproof, Outdoor Rated CMX, Black, 23AWG Solid Bare Copper, 750MHz, PoE++ (4PPoE), ETL Listed, Bulk Ethernet - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71of0o+00pL.jpg) ![TRUE CABLE Cat6A Direct Burial, Shielded FTP, 500ft, Waterproof, Outdoor Rated CMX, Black, 23AWG Solid Bare Copper, 750MHz, PoE++ (4PPoE), ETL Listed, Bulk Ethernet - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71-UHGcqQVL.jpg) ![TRUE CABLE Cat6A Direct Burial, Shielded FTP, 500ft, Waterproof, Outdoor Rated CMX, Black, 23AWG Solid Bare Copper, 750MHz, PoE++ (4PPoE), ETL Listed, Bulk Ethernet - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61ZKMEF+ghL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size, Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent High-Quality Cable That Is Very Difficult to Terminate *by H***T on 18 October 2022* APPEARANCE Cable is Matte White color, interior wires are clearly color coded with no issue.

It's good quality but hard to split and work with.
