What is the Difference Between Plenum, Riser, and PVC Cat6 Ethernet Cables?

Plenum, Riser, and PVC Cat6 Ethernet Cables: What's the Difference?

There are three types of Cat6 cable 1000ft Ethernet cables: • Cat6 Plenum Cable • Cat6 Riser Cable • Cat6 PVC Cable

Cat6 Plenum Cable Cat6 Cable 1000ft Plenum comes with a CMP-rated jacket of the highest quality. When it comes to the quality of the outer jacket, a CMP jacket has the highest rating. CMP stands for Communications Multipurpose Cable, and these cables are best used in plenum spaces inside buildings, in case you didn't know. Because plenum spaces have a higher danger of fire, these CMP-rated Cat6 Plenum Cables prevent the spread of fire.

Cat6 Riser Cable The Cat6 Riser Cable has a CMR-rated outer jacket and is best used in building risers or vertical spaces. These areas, too, enable return airflows and pose a fire hazard.

The CMR-rated outer jacket of riser cables prevents fire advancement while emitting very little toxicity in the form of gases or smoke. This cable can also be used outside, but owing to safety issues, you cannot use a PVC cable as a riser alternative.

Cat6 PVC Cable Cat6 PVC Cable is a 6th generation Ethernet cable with a PVC coating that is suitable for outdoor use. Because you'll be installing this cable in a hostile outdoor setting, the jacket is sunlight, UV, and chemical resistant. This cable is less expensive when compared to Cat6 plenum and Cat6 riser cables.
