    A:  I've never seen a wire with these markings indicating distance used/remaining. Since this product doesn't specifically list this unique feature, I think its safe to say that the wire will not have these markings.

        Q:What product is used in place of cat 6 if you want to Direct bury it

        Answer This Question

        A:  You can find Cat6 wires designed for Direct Burial. Look for Ethernet cables that are explicitly labeled as "outdoor-rated" or "direct burial" Cat6 cables. These cables have additional protection against moisture, UV exposure, and mechanical stress.

            Q:For above ceiling and in wall, do you recommend EMT or PVC conduit to run cat6?

            Answer This Question

            A:  If its close to electrical wires, EMT would provide more protection from electromagnetic fields. If this is the goal, STP (shielded twisted pair) Cat6 might be an easier solution depending on how much shielding you need. PVC is easier to work with.

                Q:I want to run a CAT6 wire in an interior cement floor. Can I cover it as is or does it need to be in conduit?

                A:  This is a bad idea. Concrete is a rigig material, and as it dries and cures, it can exert significant pressure on objects within it. The pressure from the concrete's expansion and contraction as it dries could potentially damage the cable or break it.
