Belden 2424 Cat6 LSZH U/UTP 23AWG Solid Copper 1000ft Ethernet Cable
The Belden 2424 DataTwist 2400 is a Category 6+ Enhanced unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) LSZH Ethernet cable engineered for indoor structured cabling systems where low smoke generation and halogen-free fire safety are mandatory. Built with four pairs of 23 AWG solid bare copper conductors insulated in Polyolefin (PO) around a patented dielectric tape separator, this bulk Cat6 Ethernet cable achieves guaranteed transmission margins up to 350 MHz and electrical characterization swept to 550 MHz.
Protected by Belden's flame-retardant Haloarrest Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket, Belden 2424 mitigates toxic halogen acid gas and dense smoke obscuring escape routes in data centers, commercial facilities, hospitals, educational campuses, and public transit buildings. Available in Blue (2424 0061000) and Purple (2424 0071000) on 1,000 ft reels with an integrated ripcord and descending footage markings, it delivers reliable high-power PoE++ performance alongside full Cat6 channel headroom.
Key Features & Performance Advantages
- Haloarrest Low Smoke Zero Halogen Jacket: Flame-retardant, non-halogenated LSZH compound compliant with IEC 60332-1-2 and CPR Euroclass Eca for safer enclosed and high-occupancy indoor pathways.
- 100% Solid Bare Copper Conductors: Pure 23 AWG annealed bare copper minimizes DC resistance (78 Ohm/km max) and thermal rise under sustained Power over Ethernet loads.
- 350 MHz Guaranteed / 550 MHz Swept Cat6+ Bandwidth: Exceeds ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6 and ISO/IEC 11801 ed 2.2 Class E specifications with positive ACR headroom to 350 MHz.
- High-Wattage PoE++ Ready: Fully supports IEEE 802.3bt Type 1 (15.4W), Type 2 (30W), Type 3 (60W), and Type 4 (100W) PoE cable applications.
- Patented Dielectric Tape Separator: Preserves uniform pair geometry and NEXT isolation while maintaining a compact 0.221 in (5.61 mm) outer diameter.
- Installer-Friendly 1,000 ft Reel: Includes an internal ripcord for rapid jacket stripping plus descending sequential footage and meter print markings to simplify pull planning.
- Third-Party Verified & RoHS Compliant: UL Verified (E177244 T19189) data transmission performance with EU RoHS 2, WEEE, REACH, and UKCA environmental approvals.
