LF Bulk Cat 6/6a Red Cable

[Cavalry Canuck]

I’m looking for Cat 6/6a rated network cable that is red. I am trying to colour code my network runs based on use case for ease of identification and organization in my network closet. Blue is standard cat 6 runs to network jacks, yellow for PoE runs to network jacks, and I want to use red just for the security camera runs (also PoE). I want to avoid black because I already have black RJ-6 cables in the mix as well. I haven’t had much luck with online searches.

I'm sure this is not exactly what you are looking for but you can always use cable covers. I will also check and see if I can find any Cat 6/6a that are normally red for you.

EDIT: I found the following options for red Cat 6a network cables in bulk,

How are you searching? Looking for red patch cables and i get pages filled with them. Most links even lead to pages where you pick the color.

I need bulk solid/riser cable, not patch/stranded cables.

The first is perfect, thank you!

 

I have no idea why these didn’t come up while I was searching.

Ah, i thought you meant in bulk  as in 100+ of them at once.

You mean the cable you run from outlets/camera's to the patch room. While there are colored cables (in 500m boxes) we usually dont bother with that and only use colors from the patch panel to the switch or whatever device

This is all part of a long drawn out renovation process, and even after it’s all done, the runs will be partially exposed. I suppose I could tape or sleeve the cables, but this would better satisfy my OCD.
