Ubiquiti UACC-CABLE-C6A-CMP | UniFi Indoor Cat6A CMP Plenum-Rated Ethernet Cable, 305m Pull Box, U/UTP, White

Q: What does CMP-rated mean and why does it matter?
A: CMP stands for Communications Multipurpose Plenum. It means the cable jacket is manufactured with low-smoke, flame-retardant materials approved for use in plenum spaces — the air-handling areas above drop ceilings and below raised floors. Building codes in many jurisdictions require CMP-rated cable in these areas to reduce toxic smoke spread in a fire.

Q: What network speeds does this Cat6A cable support?
A: Cat6A supports data rates up to 10 Gbps (10GbE) at channel lengths up to 100 m, and operates at bandwidths up to 500 MHz — double that of standard Cat6.

Q: Can I use this cable in non-plenum areas as well?
A: Yes. CMP is the highest common cable fire rating, so it can legally be used in riser and general-purpose spaces where a lower-rated cable (CMR or CM) would otherwise be specified. It is a universal choice for an entire building installation.

Q: Is this cable compatible with all UniFi switches and access points?
A: Yes. Being standard Cat6A U/UTP, it is fully compatible with all UniFi and third-party network equipment using standard RJ-45 interfaces, including UniFi switches, access points, and security cameras.

Q: Can I purchase the Ubiquiti UACC-CABLE-C6A-CMP in Australia from IP Trading?
A: Absolutely. IP Trading (iptrading.com.au) is an authorised Australian B2B IT hardware reseller stocking Ubiquiti UniFi accessories including this 305 m Cat6A CMP cable spool. Orders are dispatched and delivered across Australia.

Q: Does the cable come ready to pull from a box?
A: Yes. The 305 m length is supplied on a standard pull-box spool, making it easy to feed cable during structured cabling installations without tangling or kinking.
