The Monoprice Cat6 Ethernet Bulk Cable, part number 40658, is a solid, riser-rated (CMR) unshielded twisted pair (UTP) solution designed for permanent installations within building risers or general-purpose areas. This cable is suitable for IT professionals and businesses requiring reliable network infrastructure for applications up to 550MHz. It features 23AWG bare copper wire, ensuring consistent signal transmission over its 500-foot length. The CMR rating indicates it meets fire safety standards for vertical runs between floors, making it appropriate for multi-story office buildings, data centers, or educational institutions where cabling needs to pass between different levels. This bulk cable is ideal for creating custom-length patch cables or for structured cabling projects where performance and safety compliance are critical for stable network operations.
