American DJ CAT6PRO50 50' Cabinet-Cabinet Data Link Cable w/Neutrik Connector

The CAT6PRO50 is a 50' CAT6 data cable wired to the T-568B straight-through standard with Neutrik locking 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.

Fifty feet links cabinets across a stage or connects separated sections of a video wall, covering the span between stage left and stage right positions in most rooms.

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.
