VolitionTM
Category 6 cable 100 Ω, UTP
Belonging to the 3M™ Volition™ Network Solutions, this 350 MHz
UTP Category 6 cable will deliver the best performance when used
with the 3MTM RJ45 K6 jacks, to give highest margins over Category
6 / TIA/EIA 568 and ISO 11801 and EN 50173 Class E standards.
An integral cross separator structure ensures permanent stability of
the physical structure for enhanced long term performance and redu-
ced crushing risk at cable anchorage points.
The green sheath has length marking which is easy and convenient
for the installer and gives a clear identification of cable and link
lengths.
A polyester tape between the sheath and twisted pairs allows easier
stripping.
As a 3MTM branded product, it offers 3MTM system identity for corpo-
rate and warranty approval.
