OVERVIEW
Quest Cat6A UTP 550MHz CMR Cable is designed for indoor high speed 10 Gbps data and voice applications. It is constructed of 4-pairs of 23AWG unshielded twisted pair copper wires with a flexible High-Density Polyethelene divider which isolates the pairs for minimal cross-talk. It comes on a wooden spool containing 1000 feet of cable. Available in Blue and Gray.
