DTech CAT6 Solid Copper U/UTP Cable 305m Red
500MHz AV-Ready Data Cable with Red LSZH Jacket
DTech CAT6 Solid Copper U/UTP Cable 305m Red provides a clearly identifiable red data cabling option for structured network, PoE, control and compatible AV installations. Built with four twisted pairs of 23AWG solid bare copper conductors, it combines CAT6 performance with an unscreened U/UTP construction and a Low Smoke Zero Halogen outer jacket.
Supplied in a 305m pull box, this DTech AV-Ready CAT6 Cable is designed for new-build and existing network infrastructures where reliable data transmission and support for modern connected systems are required. Its distinctive red jacket can also help installers identify particular networks, services or cable routes within larger structured cabling installations.
AV-Ready Network Performance
DTech developed its AV-Ready N-Link cabling range to accommodate growing bandwidth requirements while also supporting applications beyond conventional Ethernet networking.
The cable is specified for performance up to 500MHz and supports 10GBASE-T together with PoE applications and ELV control. When combined with suitable communication hardware, it can also be used for HD, UHD and 4K video distribution and compatible audio distribution.

Red CAT6 Cable for Easy Circuit Identification
The red outer jacket makes this version particularly useful where cable colours are used to differentiate networks, systems, floors, departments or dedicated services.
Using different jacket colours throughout a structured cabling installation can make cable routes easier to recognise during installation, termination and future maintenance without changing the underlying CAT6 cable specification.
Solid Copper U/UTP Cable Construction
DTech CAT6 Solid Copper U/UTP Cable 305m Red incorporates eight solid bare copper conductors arranged as four colour-coded twisted pairs.
The U/UTP configuration is unscreened and uses PE core insulation. The cable has a nominal outer diameter of 6.2mm and a manufacturer-specified minimum bending radius of six times the cable outer diameter.
Suitable Applications
- CAT6 structured network installations
- Commercial data cabling
- Residential network infrastructure
- 10GBASE-T applications
- Power over Ethernet installations
- ELV control networks
- Building automation cabling
- AV distribution infrastructure
- HDBaseT compatible systems
- HD, UHD and 4K video distribution with suitable equipment
- Compatible audio distribution
