Key Features
-
Length & Flexibility
-
50 metres of CAT6-rated cable wound on a portable reel—ready for quick deployment and tidy storage
-
The cable is non‑memory (won’t spring back), ensuring smooth handling during repeated unspooling.
-
-
Shielded CAT6 Performance
-
Offers the reliability of shielded data transmission, supporting data rates up to 1 Gbps and potentially 10 Gbps depending on system configuration.
-
Meets TIA/EIA CAT6 specifications, maintaining signal integrity while reducing electromagnetic interference.
-
-
Rugged Connector System
-
Terminated with Neutrik etherCON connectors — essentially ruggedized RJ45 plugs with locking metal shells and strain relief for robust, secure fits
-
These steel-shrouded connectors are built to withstand harsh handling and are ideal for touring, live events, broadcast, or industrial environments.
-
-
Reel & Transport Convenience
-
Portable reel design (likely using durable Schill or similar material) includes a 5 m tail for easy connection to gear and an integrated brake or winder to prevent cable tangle
-
Connector end caps and Velcro straps help protect connectors and keep gear organized when in transit .
-
Applications & Use Cases
-
Event & Touring Production: Perfect for rugged field use—from FOH consoles to stage boxes.
-
Professional AV / Broadcast: Supports protocols like Dante, AES50, AVB over reliable CAT6 connections.
-
Industrial/Outdoor Deployments: Shielded construction combats noise in EM-intensive environments.
-
Network Infrastructure: Ideal as a backbone cable requiring secure, vibration-resistant connectors.
Connector Notes
-
Neutrik’s CAT6-specific etherCON variants are tailored to match the thicker gauge of CAT6 cable.
-
However, they are not inter-mateable with CAT5e versions—something to keep in mind when mixing cable types.
-
For most use cases—and especially if you’re using standard CAT6A or CAT5e—you’re better off using Neutrik Cat6A-compatible parts, which remain backward compatible with CAT5e systems.
