Frequently Asked Questions

Is PrimeCables Cat6 CCA bulk cable suitable for ISP last-mile installations in Uganda?

Yes. It supports Gigabit Ethernet over runs up to 100 metres, making it ideal for FTTH/FTTB subscriber home cabling, MDU distribution, and MikroTik-based ISP networks. Pair with your ISP Billing Platform for a complete subscriber deployment workflow.

What is the difference between CCA and pure copper Cat6 bulk cable?

CCA is lighter and lower cost. It performs well for data within 100m, but for PoE runs over 40 metres, consider pure copper to avoid voltage drop. For short NOC rack runs, CCA is fully adequate. Compare with our Cmple 1000ft Cat6 reel for longer bulk deployments.

What is the maximum run length for Cat6 UTP bulk cable?

100 metres (328ft) per TIA-568 for Gigabit Ethernet. For PoE to MikroTik access points, keep CCA runs under 60m for reliable power delivery.

How many Cat6 drops can I wire from a 250ft spool?

Approximately 2–3 full subscriber home runs at 20–30m each, or 6–10 short patch drops in a NOC environment. For full building installations, our Cmple 1000ft Cat6 bulk reel offers better value per metre.

What is the price of Cat6 bulk cable in Uganda?

250ft spools: ~$50–$75 USD (≈ 185,000–280,000 USh). 500ft spools: ~$99–$140 USD (≈ 365,000–520,000 USh). 1000ft solid CCA spools: ~$55–$100 USD (≈ 200,000–370,000 USh). NetEdge Supplies delivers to Kampala, Entebbe, Jinja, Mbarara, Gulu, and upcountry Uganda.

Is this Cat6 cable compatible with MikroTik switches and routers?

Yes — fully compatible with all MikroTik routers and switches including the hEX S, hEX RB750Gr3, CRS310, hAP, and wAP series. Use T568B wiring when terminating RJ45 plugs or keystone jacks.
