American DJ ADJ CAT6PRO250 Pro Series 250 Foot 24 AWG EtherCON CAT6 Cable

The CAT6PRO250 is a 250' CAT6 data cable wired to the T-568B straight-through standard with etherCON connectors, built for lighting and video networks that get packed, unpacked and stepped on. Eight bare copper conductors in twisted pairs sit around a plastic separator that holds crosstalk and noise inside the tighter CAT6 limits, so the cable carries frequencies up to 250 MHz.

Two hundred fifty feet is close to the practical limit of a single CAT6 run, covering long festival cable paths and large installs where a switch position is not an option.

The conductors are 24 AWG bare copper, 19 x 0.12, with HDPE isolation. Bare copper matters on longer runs: copper-clad conductors lose signal margin over distance, and a data drop in the middle of a show is not a place to save money. The flexible black PVC jacket measures 6.5 mm across, so the cable coils down small for transport and lies flat on a stage deck.

Locking connectors hold their position when a cable gets tugged during a load-in or stepped on by a crew member crossing behind the wall. That is often the difference between a panel that stays online and a section that goes black mid-cue.

Per the CAT6 standard, keep any single run to 328 feet (100 meters) or less and split longer paths with a switch. Wiring follows T-568B: blue on pin 4, blue-white pin 5, orange pin 2, orange-white pin 1, green pin 6, green-white pin 3, brown pin 8, brown-white pin 7.
