Ultra Spec Cables Aerial Cat6 Outdoor Waterproof Direct Burial Ethernet Cables are designed with a specialized jacket that protects the cable from damage caused by exposure to water and sunlight and is both sturdy and resistant to heat, cracks and tears, therefore making it suitable for both outdoor and harsh environments. The 24AWG, 4 Pair Solid Cable is constructed of 100% Bare Copper Wires and 50 micron gold-plated contacts ensure clear transmission by eliminating signal loss typically caused by corrosion. An incorporated strain relief provides a snagless, low profile connector, which is perfect for high density patching. The cable's shielding helps to eliminate EMI/RFI and crosstalk and the result is superior performance and enhanced data integrity. The cables are pre-connectorized, saving both time and money typically spent on costly field terminations. Each cable is factory tested for insertion and return loss to ensure maximum performance and reliability. The integrated galvanized steel messenger wire runs parallel to the cable, providing structural support which prevents sagging, drooping, bends or kinks that may ultimately result in reduced cable throughput and therefore ensuring a long service life. The messenger wire also helps to stabilize the cable and reinforces it by helping to keep it in place, when suspended in the air between two buildings, poles, posts or towers. Our cables can be deployed across a rooftop, lashed to an existing cable on a telephone pole or buried partially or fully underground so they're perfect for use in multi-building campus networks, like hospitals, universities, government facilities, corporate complexes and sectors like transportation and industrial automation. They provide a secure, durable long-term or temporary network solution that is easy to install and remove.
