Hosa CAT-650BK Cat 6 Network Cable — 50ft S/FTP 8P8C
CAT-650BK Overview
The Hosa CAT-650BK is a 50ft Cat 6 network cable engineered for high-speed local area network deployments in professional AV, broadcast, and integrated systems environments. Built with shielded twisted pair (S/FTP) construction, it delivers maximum rejection of EMI and RFI interference that can compromise signal integrity in demanding installation environments. With performance rated up to 550 MHz, it meets the bandwidth demands of today’s Ethernet networks while maintaining backward compatibility with Cat 5 and Cat 3 standards. This cable is well suited for system integrators, AV technicians, and network infrastructure professionals requiring reliable, shielded data runs.
The CAT-650BK ships on a hand crank reel, simplifying deployment and storage during installation projects.
