If you are pulling cable through a drop ceiling or air handling space where the fire inspector demands CMP-rated materials, this Wavenet Cat6 plenum cable on a RIB reel is built for exactly that. It ships as part number 6E04UPXX3N in a thousand-foot Reel-In-Box that pays out cleanly without the mess of loose coils. The cable uses 23 AWG solid bare copper on an unshielded twisted pair design rated up to 600MHz, so you get clean signal without grounding shields. It is CMP and FT6 listed for plenum spaces, TIA-568-C.2 verified, and RoHS compliant. Inside, FEP insulation handles higher temperatures than standard polyethylene, a separator keeps the pairs aligned, and a ripcord lets you strip the jacket without nicking conductors. The flame-retardant PVC outer shell is tested to maintain tensile strength after high-temperature aging. Available in blue, grey, red, purple, and white, this spool covers permanent Gigabit runs in commercial buildings, schools, and healthcare facilities where airspace safety matters.
If you're pulling cable through plenum spaces, this Cat6 Plenum Wavenet 6E04FPXX2N is the real deal. It's rated for air handling areas with CMP and FT6 designation, and the low smoke flame-retardant PVC jacket won't give off toxic fumes if things heat up. You get four 23AWG solid bare copper pairs wrapped in FEP insulation, which keeps signal integrity tight even when you're pushing higher bandwidth. The aluminum foil shield blocks electromagnetic interference, and the drain wire gives you a solid ground path. It handles frequencies up to 600MHz, so you've got room beyond standard gigabit. The reel gives you a full 1000 feet at a nominal 49 pounds. Installation temperature sits between zero and seventy-five degrees Celsius, with operation down to negative twenty. Wavenet built this to TIA-568-C.2 standards with ETL verification, and the ripcord makes stripping the jacket easier. Whether it's a school, hospital, or office retrofit, this cable checks the boxes for code compliance and performance.
If you are running network cable outdoors and need something that can handle the elements without separate conduit, this Wavenet Cat6 direct burial cable is worth a look. It is rated for 600MHz and comes on a 1000ft reel, giving you plenty for most residential or commercial runs. The 23AWG solid bare copper conductors deliver consistent signal quality, and the WaterBlock fill keeps moisture out where it should not be. The jacket is sunlight-resistant LLDPE, so UV exposure is less of a worry over time. Inside, you will find four twisted pairs with a cross separator to keep crosstalk down, plus a ripcord to make stripping easier. It meets TIA-568-C.2 and UL444 standards and is RoHS compliant. Installation temps run from 0°C to 75°C, with operating temps down to -20°C. Whether you are connecting outbuildings, outdoor access points, or security cameras, this cable is built for underground and outdoor use.

Wavenet Cable

Discounted Cables carries the full line of Wavenet cable brand in 1000ft bulk spools, built for network installers, IT contractors, and facility managers who need dependable cabling at a fair price. Every Wavenet cable in this collection ships with tax-free delivery across the USA, so the price you see is the price you pay.

What Makes Wavenet Cable Different

Wavenet has manufactured structured cabling since 1990, and that manufacturing background shows up in the details: solid bare copper conductors, ETL verification to ANSI/TIA-568-C.2, and RoHS compliance across the line. A Wavenet Ethernet cable isn't a generic import with a sticker slapped on it. Each spool carries independent test data for bandwidth, NEXT, and return loss, so the specs on the box match what you get on a certified tester.

This collection includes Cat6 and Cat6A options in riser (CMR), plenum (CMP), outdoor, and direct burial constructions:

  • Cat6 Riser: 550-600MHz UTP or F/UTP, CMR/FT4 rated, for vertical shaft and in-wall runs

  • Cat6 Plenum: 550-600MHz UTP or F/UTP, CMP/FT6 rated, for drop ceilings and air-handling spaces

  • Cat6A Riser & Plenum: 750MHz, 10G-rated UTP or shielded FTP, for high-bandwidth backbone runs

  • Cat6A Outdoor: UV-rated PVC jacket for exposed exterior installs

  • Cat6 Direct Burial: waterblock, gel-filled, or shielded FTP options for underground runs without conduit

All spools use 23AWG solid copper conductors across four twisted pairs, and most ship on a 1000-foot reel, either a Reelex II pull box or a Reel-in-Box (RIB), depending on the SKU. Jacket colors range from standard black, blue, and white to yellow, green, red, purple, and gray, helping you color-code circuits by floor, department, or building.

Buy Wavenet Cable in Bulk

If you're pricing out a Wavenet cable bulk order for a commercial build, apartment complex, or multi-site contract, buying by the reel reduces your cost per foot compared to short-pull boxes. Discounted Cables prices its Wavenet bulk cable competitively against other Wavenet cable suppliers in the USA, and every reel delivers the same ETL-verified performance, whether you order one spool or a pallet. For volume pricing on a large project, use the "Get Quotation" option, and a rep will work out a rate based on quantity and delivery timeline.

Choosing the Right Wavenet Network Cable

Match the cable to the space before you buy:

  • Running cable through open air or a drop ceiling? Code requires CMP plenum cable, not riser.

  • Pulling between floors inside a conduit or shaft? CMR riser cable meets code and costs less than plenum.

  • Installing outdoors on poles or building exteriors? Pick the UV-rated outdoor CMX jacket.

  • Burying cable directly in the ground? Choose direct burial with waterblock or gel fill - never bury riser or plenum-rated cable.

  • Need 10 Gigabit speeds or future-proofing? Cat6A supports 750 MHz bandwidth, compared to 550-600 MHz on Cat6.

Shielded (F/UTP or FTP) versions add an aluminum foil shield and a drain wire, which help in electrically noisy environments such as industrial floors, data centers, or runs near heavy electrical equipment. Standard UTP works fine for most office, school, and residential installs.

Why Buy Wavenet Cable From Discounted Cables

Every order ships free of sales tax anywhere in the USA, and Discounted Cables stocks Wavenet inventory directly rather than drop-shipping from a third party, so lead times stay predictable. If you're sourcing more than just Ethernet cable for a project, check our catalog for Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6A, Cat7, and Cat8 options, or browse Combination Cable Bulk for reels that pair Ethernet with coax or power in a single jacket.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Wavenet cable of good quality? 

Yes. Wavenet has manufactured structured cabling since 1990, and every reel in this collection is ETL-verified to ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 and RoHS-compliant, so performance is independently tested rather than just labeled.

What's the difference between a Wavenet riser and plenum cable? 

Riser (CMR) cable is rated for vertical shafts and in-wall runs. Plenum (CMP) cable carries a stricter fire rating required for drop ceilings, raised floors, and other air-handling spaces. Plenum costs more but is required by code in those areas.

Can I bury Wavenet Cat6 cable directly in the ground? 

Only the direct burial SKUs, which use waterblock or gel-filled construction to keep moisture out. Standard riser or plenum cable isn't built for underground exposure and will degrade if buried.

Does Wavenet Cat6A support 10 Gigabit Ethernet? 

Yes. The Cat6A line in this collection is rated to 750MHz and built for 10G runs up to 100 meters, verified to TIA-568-C.2 standards.

Do I pay sales tax on a Wavenet bulk cable order? 

No. Discounted Cables offers tax-free delivery on every order shipped within the USA.
