A 500m reel of CAT6A installation cable, rated to 500MHz for 10GBASE-T across a full 100 metre channel.
Stranded copper cores keep it flexible, so it is the cable to use for making up your own patch leads with crimp plugs made for stranded wire. It uses a braided outer screen plus foil around every pair (S/FTP), the heaviest screening used on copper patch leads.
Its LSZH sheath produces minimal smoke and no halogen fumes if it burns, which many commercial buildings require.
Plan each permanent link at no more than 90 metres, leaving room for patch leads within the 100 metre Ethernet channel.
