Outdoor-rated Cat6 with 24AWG solid pure copper conductors — never copper-clad aluminum (CCA). Pure copper delivers lower DC resistance for dependable Power-over-Ethernet and stable signal on long runs, where CCA cables lose power and data integrity. A waterproof, UV-resistant jacket handles exterior walls, patios, garages and workshops as well as any indoor run. Cable clips included. In stock and shipped from our Texas, USA warehouse.
Why the ODC Series
- Pure copper, not CCA — 24AWG solid bare-copper conductors reduce attenuation and safely carry PoE power to cameras, access points and routers.
- Tested to 550 MHz — more than double the Cat6 requirement, with 10GBASE-T headroom on runs up to 180 ft and full Gigabit at every length.
- Outdoor rated — waterproof, UV-resistant jacket for above-ground outdoor and indoor use (not for direct burial).
- PoE ready — supports IEEE 802.3af (PoE), 802.3at (PoE+) and 802.3bt (PoE++).
- Universal RJ45 compatibility — routers, modems, switches, consoles, smart TVs, desktops, NAS, IP cameras and PoE gear.
- Flexible round design with clips — easy routing around corners; included clips keep installs tidy.
