PRO POWER FTP 4-Pair Network Cable, CCA, Grey, 305m Reel

The PRO POWER FTP 4-Pair Network Cable is a cost-effective networking solution designed for structured cabling installations. This cable features shielded twisted pairs, providing protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, which is essential for maintaining signal integrity in dense networking environments. It is constructed with Copper Clad Aluminium (CCA) conductors, offering a balance of performance and economy for specific applications.

Supplied on a large 305-metre reel (equivalent to 1000 feet), this cable is ideal for installers and contractors requiring substantial lengths for new builds, office refits, or extending network infrastructure. Its grey jacket allows for discreet and professional installation in a variety of settings. The cable complies with the Construction Products Regulation (CPR) classification Cat Eca, indicating its performance concerning reaction to fire.

Important Usage Note

Due to its CCA conductor construction, this cable is not recommended for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications. PoE delivers both data and electrical power over the same cable, and the higher electrical resistance of aluminium compared to solid copper can lead to excessive voltage drop and potential overheating under load. For standard data networking where PoE is not a requirement, this cable provides a functional and economical choice.
