    Hello! I will need around 600m of this type of cable in the next month or so.

    Cablemonkey is the most reliable shop I know but they have confirmed they don't do unshielded CAT 6A.

    Other shops like Farnell. ie, rs-online or satworld. ie either don't have that cable either or reviews are not very good.

    Any other recommendation?

    Cheers

    Miquel

    Not 100% sure they'd have it, but Wood Communications is where I'd go first

    Didn't realise you could get to Cat6A unshielded, thought it needed to be at least S/FTP to work

    I picked up 120m of CAT6a from ONNEC (formerly Keddington) in Limerick yesterday. I just happened to be passing and popped in.

    They have locations in Dublin and Cork, though it would probably be best to call them first before to see if they have what you are looking for.
