Shielded U/UTP Cat6A Network Cable DS-IT DC-UTP6A-305S-CCA 305 m 100% Copper LSZH (Cca)

DS-IT DC-UTP6A-305S-CCA is a Cat6A U/UTP network cable supplied on a 305 m reel, featuring 100% solid copper conductors and an unshielded twisted pair construction. The cable is built to support high-speed 10 Gbps Ethernet and structured cabling deployments, while the LSZH (Cca) outer sheath provides reduced smoke emission and improved reaction-to-fire performance for installations that require enhanced fire safety characteristics.

Advantages

This Cat6A cable combines full copper solid conductors with a U/UTP topology to deliver reliable signal integrity for high-bandwidth applications. The 305 m reel format is suitable for longer runs and professional installation workflows. The LSZH (Cca) jacket reduces toxic fumes and smoke in case of fire and meets stricter building-code requirements for public and commercial spaces. The cable is designed for 10 Gbps Ethernet and structured cabling standards, offering predictable performance for data centers, backbone links and horizontal cabling.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbps Ethernet connections in data centers and server rooms
• Structured cabling backbones and horizontal runs in commercial buildings
• Environments requiring low-smoke, limited fire propagation outer jackets (LSZH Cca)
• Professional installations where solid (single conductor) cable is preferred for permanence and stability

When it may not be suitable

This U/UTP Cat6A cable is not intended for environments that require individually shielded pairs or overall metallic shielding; it lacks foil or braid shielding and therefore is more sensitive to electromagnetic interference compared with shielded alternatives. It may not be the optimal choice for industrial sites with high EMI, outdoor runs without additional UV/weatherproofing, or situations that require plenum-rated jackets beyond the specified LSZH (Cca) classification.

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6A (augmented Category 6)
• Conductor material: 100% solid copper
• Conductor structure: solid (single conductor per core)
• Pair topology: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pairs, unshielded overall)
• Length per reel: 305 m
• Designed data rate: up to 10 Gbps Ethernet
• Outer sheath: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) with Cca fire performance

How to use

Plan cable routes and lengths according to your structured cabling layout, allowing service loops and slack for termination panels or patch panels. Use appropriate cable management and fixed support to avoid excessive bending and strain on the solid conductors; maintain minimum bend radius recommendations for Cat6A during pulling through conduits or trays. Terminate the cable on compatible Cat6A RJ45 jacks and patch panels using tools designed for solid conductors, and verify performance with a cable tester certified for Cat6A to confirm continuity, pair mapping, and signal parameters.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm whether shielded cable is required for your environment or if U/UTP is acceptable
• Verify that solid conductor cable fits your termination hardware and installation method
• Ensure LSZH (Cca) jacket meets your building code and fire-safety requirements
• Check planned run lengths — 305 m reels are best for larger installations and may require pull access

Usage recommendations

Handle the cable carefully to avoid kinking; support runs in trays or conduits, keep separation from large power cables where possible, and test each link after termination to ensure the cable meets Cat6A performance requirements for 10 Gbps operation.
