Overview
- The Ubiquiti UniFi Cat6A CMP plenum Ethernet cable is purpose-built for professional network deployments where fire safety standards are mandatory. The plenum (CMP) rating ensures the cable meets fire codes for installation in building air plenums and return air spaces, making it essential for commercial properties, hospitals, schools, and government facilities.
With Category 6A specifications, this cable supports high-speed data transmission up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet, delivering the performance required for modern business networks. The anti-crosstalk divider technology maintains signal integrity across long cable runs, reducing interference and ensuring reliable connectivity.
The 305-metre spool length makes this cable ideal for large-scale installations, allowing IT teams to deploy comprehensive network infrastructure across multi-floor buildings and sprawling campuses. The fire-resistant jacket protects both the cable and the building environment, giving facility managers and compliance officers peace of mind.

FAQs
What does CMP plenum-rated mean?
CMP (Communications Multipurpose Plenum) rating certifies the cable meets fire safety codes for installation in building plenums—the air spaces used for heating, cooling, and air return. It has a fire-resistant jacket that produces minimal smoke and toxic fumes if ignited.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor installation?
No. The Ubiquiti UniFi Cat6A CMP is designed for indoor plenum environments. For outdoor applications, use outdoor-rated Ethernet cables specifically designed for environmental exposure.
What speed does Cat6A support?
Category 6A supports data transmission up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10 Gbps) over distances up to 100 metres, making it suitable for high-speed enterprise networks and data centre applications.
Why does an anti-crosstalk divider matter?
The anti-crosstalk divider physically separates the twisted pairs within the cable, minimising signal interference between conductors. This maintains signal integrity, reduces data errors, and improves overall network reliability, especially important in densely populated cable runs.
Can I use this cable in residential buildings?
Plenum-rated cables are typically required only in commercial and institutional buildings with air plenums. Most residential installations use standard Cat6A cables. Check your local building codes to confirm requirements for your application.
How much cable length do I need?
The 305-metre spool is suitable for most commercial installations. Consider your building layout, distance between network nodes, and future expansion. Cat6A supports reliable transmission up to 100 metres per run, so plan accordingly.
Is this cable compatible with Ubiquiti UniFi equipment?
Yes. This cable is part of the Ubiquiti UniFi accessory range and is fully compatible with all UniFi networking equipment. It meets industry standards for Ethernet connectivity.
