Description
The CommScope CS34P Category 6 F/UTP Shielded Plenum cable delivers superior high-speed data transmission, robust noise immunity, and uncompromising fire safety for mission-critical enterprise network architectures. Designed and engineered under CommScope's trusted Uniprise® portfolio, this horizontal cable features four twisted pairs of 23 AWG solid bare copper conductors insulated with premium FEP and isolated by an integrated FEP center separator. An overall aluminum/polyester foil shielding tape combined with a 26 AWG solid tinned copper drain wire provides complete protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI), radio frequency interference (RFI), and alien crosstalk. Certified CMP/FT6 (NFPA 262, UL 444, UL 910) for safe installation in commercial plenum drop ceilings and environmental air-handling spaces, this cable meets ANSI/TIA-568.2-D and ISO/IEC 11801 Class E standards up to 250 MHz, with full support for high-power IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 PoE++ (up to 100W). Supplied on a 1,000-foot blue reel, it provides the ultimate reliability and physical protection for high-density voice, data, and video deployments.

Features and Applications
- Robust F/UTP Foil Shielding: Overall aluminum/polyester shielding tape paired with a 26 AWG solid tinned copper drain wire eliminates external EMI/RFI noise and protects against alien crosstalk in dense cable pathways.
- High-Performance 23 AWG Solid Bare Copper: Pure solid bare copper conductors maximize signal velocity, provide low DC resistance (8 ohms/100m max), and eliminate the degradation common in copper-clad aluminum cables.
- CMP Plenum / FT6 Fire Rated: Fully compliant with NFPA 262, UL 444, UL 910, and NEC Article 800 standards for safe installation within commercial drop ceilings, HVAC plenums, and environmental air ducts.
- High-Power 100W PoE++ Delivery: Fully complies with IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 standards to reliably deliver up to 100W of power for advanced PTZ IP cameras, Wi-Fi 6/6E/7 access points, and smart building sensors.
- Engineered FEP Pair Isolation: Features premium FEP conductor insulation and an internal FEP cross-isolator to maintain consistent pair geometry and tight electrical tolerance.
- Compact 0.273 Inch Diameter: Optimized profile facilitates routing through tight conduit runs and cable trays, lowering bundle bulk and improving airflow.
- Enterprise Standards Certified: Meets ANSI/TIA-568.2-D, CENELEC EN 50288-6-1, and ISO/IEC 11801 Class E performance parameters up to 250 MHz.
- Environmentally Compliant & Tested: Manufactured in ISO 9001:2015 certified facilities, RoHS, REACH-SVHC, and UK-ROHS compliant, 100% swept frequency tested.
