Standards-Compliant Extended Frequency
Future-proof your installations with GenSPEED® 6 Category 6 cable,
now certified LP by Underwriters Laboratories (UL).
Utlizes EfficienC™ Max Technology to Support High-Wattage
Power over Ethernet (PoE) Applications
GenSPEED® 6 Category 6 cable goes beyond the proposed IEEE 802.3bt standard
of 49 W to up to 100 W* for even more coverage of high-wattage equipment.
Cable Temperature Rated to 90°C for Higher Protection Against
Increased Operating Temperatures and for High-Wattage Applications
LP Listed
SUPPORTS UP TO 100 WATTS*
General Cable's EfficienC Max cable is rated to 90°C and constructed of 100%
fluoropolymer insulation to offer higher protection against increased operating
temperatures and:
• Surpasses the industry standard of 60°C
• Prevents material degradation from elevated temperatures over extended periods
• Reduces impact of high-powered non-standard PoE applications
