Proterial Cable America (PCA) offers outdoor designs for Category 5e, 6, and 6A. These outdoor, or Outside Plant (OSP), cables are robust and designed to offer reliable performance regardless of the conditions in which they were installed. Tough polyethylene outer jackets with carbon black protect the cable core from water and the harsh sun. A gel-filled inner core within the cable structure prevents the migration of any water that may have breached the outer layers of protection.
Designed for outdoor applications in lashed aerial, duct, or underground conduits, the category 6 outdoor cable meets high technical performance reliability standards. It is suitable for applications such as Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet, as well as delivering power to outdoor Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices.
