The Hikvision DS-1LN6UZC0 Cat6 U/UTP Network Cable is a professional-grade 305-metre Category 6 Ethernet cable designed for reliable network connectivity, IP CCTV surveillance systems, Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices and structured data cabling installations. Featuring 99.95% solid bare copper conductors, 24AWG construction, a durable PVC jacket and 250MHz transmission performance, this Cat6 network cable delivers stable data transmission for residential and commercial networking projects across Australia and New Zealand.
Designed for demanding network installations, the Hikvision DS-1LN6UZC0 uses high-purity solid copper conductors to provide low electrical resistance and reliable signal transmission. Unlike copper-clad aluminium (CCA) cables, its solid copper construction offers improved electrical conductivity and is particularly useful for PoE-powered security equipment.
The cable supports reliable transmission performance, with manufacturer testing demonstrating successful operation in a 90-metre Fluke permanent link test at 50°C and a 100-metre Fluke channel test under a continuous 57V/1A DC PoE load.
Its robust PVC outer sheath provides high tensile and compressive strength, reducing the risk of damage during cable handling and installation. Internal HDPE insulation, a pair separator and an integrated rip cord further support consistent cable performance and convenient installation.
Supplied in a 305m cable box, the DS-1LN6UZC0 is suitable for structured cabling, IP cameras, network switches, wireless access points and other compatible Ethernet devices.
