Outdoor Project Types and the Cable They Need
Five Installation Methods for Exterior Routes
Spans between poles, or between a pole and a building, self-supporting or lashed to an existing support.
Laid in a trench below the surface, with no duct or conduit protecting the cable.
Pulled through underground ducts, pipes and trenchless crossings for a protected, replaceable route.
Facade, wall and roof runs connecting outdoor equipment back into the building network.
The service point where the outside plant terminates and hands over to indoor cabling.
Bulk Cable Supply for Outdoor Infrastructure Projects
Project supply for tenders, multi-site rollouts and outdoor infrastructure programmes. Minimum order quantity is set against the construction and the quantity you need, not a fixed catalogue minimum.
Bulk Lengths
305 m / 1000 ft and 1000 m reels, plus larger project quantities for multi-site rollouts.
Outdoor Constructions
UV-stabilized PE jackets, water-blocked or gel-filled cores, and armored or messenger builds against your route.
Private Label & OEM/ODM
Printed jackets, custom packaging and labeling for distributors and project supply programmes.
Testing & Documentation
CE, RoHS and ISO 9001 documentation, with performance test reports where the tender requires them.
Constructions, jacket printing and packaging are built to your specification through the OEM/ODM programme.

Ethernet Cable for Outdoor PoE
Conductor Size
Cat6 and Cat6a are supplied with 23 AWG solid copper, which helps reduce resistance and voltage drop on long exterior runs.
Cable Construction
PE jackets where the run is exposed to permanent sunlight, with UTP or shielded pairs depending on the interference along the route.
Installation Conditions
Run length, bundling and ambient temperature all draw on the power budget, and sunlight exposure limits the jacket options.
Need a specific outdoor PoE cable specification?
Share the device, run length, conductor size and quantity when requesting a quote.
Indoor and Outdoor Cable Compared
Most sites need both: outdoor cable between buildings and indoor cable inside them. If necessary, Send both requirements in the same inquiry and we will quote them together.
| Feature | Outdoor Network Cable | Indoor Network Cable |
|---|---|---|
| Environment | UV / moisture / exterior | Controlled indoor |
| Jacket | PE / UV-stabilized | PVC / LSZH |
| Water Protection | Water-blocked options | Not intended for water exposure |
| Typical Routes | Aerial / burial / duct | Walls / ceilings / trays |
Frequently Asked Questions
Can outdoor network cable be buried directly?
Yes, with a direct-burial construction: a water-blocked or gel-filled core, and armor where rodents, stone or vehicle loading are a risk. Burial depth and soil conditions are confirmed against your project drawings.
Do you supply aerial cable with a messenger?
Yes. Aerial constructions can be supplied with an integrated messenger for self-supporting spans, or for lashing to an existing support. Span length and the sag allowed are confirmed with your quotation.
Can one construction cover a route that is part aerial and part buried?
Send the full route and the point where the conditions change. In many cases one construction covers both sections; where the route needs a different build, the transition is agreed with the quotation.
Can outdoor Ethernet cable carry PoE to cameras and access points?
Yes. Outdoor PoE feeds are supplied in Cat6 and Cat6a with 23 AWG solid copper and a UV-stabilized PE jacket. Conductor size, shielding and run length are confirmed with the quotation.
