The Smallest-Diameter Category 6A Cable
One of the standout features of the Belden 10GXW13 is its remarkably small diameter. As the industry’s smallest-diameter Category 6A cable, it significantly reduces installation time and costs. The compact size allows for easier routing through tight spaces, making it ideal for complex installations where space is at a premium.
Built for Performance and Reliability
This cable is designed with a 4-pair, U/UTP configuration and is CMP rated, ensuring it meets the highest safety standards for plenum spaces. The 23 AWG solid bare copper conductors provide robust performance, while the Flamarrest PVC-LS jacket ensures safety in air-handling spaces. The FT6 rating further underscores its flame retardant properties, ensuring the cable can withstand exposure to fire.
