TruLAN Cat 6 UTP Cable
The benefits of running voice, data or video over the same cabling system are considerable. The versatility of the latest structured wiring systems ensure confidence that future needs can be easily met with minimal expense or inconvenience to other network users.
The majority of installations use unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cables. Baluns allow RGB video signals to be transmitted using UTP, saving the cost of running dedicated wiring for many dealing room systems.
Where higher performance cables for ATM, multimedia and similar applications are required, please call us for the latest information.
Low Smoke Halogen Free versions are available where indicated.

Category cables incorporate various screening types to reduce EMI. The terminology used in the industry can be very confusing, so we have put together some diagrams to better explain the terms we use. For more information, take a look at the different screening types here.
U/UTP
U/UTP This cable is not shielded at all
U/FTP
U/FTP No overall shielding or braid (U) with foil screened twisted pairs (FTP)
F/UTP
F/UTP An overall foil shield (F) with unscreened twisted pairs (UTP)
S/UTP
S/UTP An overall braid screen (S) with unscreened twisted pairs (UTP)
SF/UTP
SF/UTP Both an overall braid screen (S) and foil shield (F) with unscreened twisted pairs (UTP)
F/FTP
F/FTP An overall foil shield (F) with foil screened twisted pairs (FTP)
S/FTP
S/FTP An overall braid screen (S) with foil screened twisted pairs (FTP)
SF/FTP
SF/FTP An overall braid screen (S) and an overall foil shield(F) with foil screened twisted pairs (FTP)
