Q:Why did all CAT 6 cable used to have a spine, and now is offered without one?

A: All the CAT 6 cable products which includes UTP CAT 6 cable, FTP CAT 6 cable and SFTP CAT 6 cable used to have a spine to increase the separation between pairs and also to maintain the pair geometry. This additional separation improves NEXT performance and allows CAT 6 cable compliance to be achieved. With advances in technology, manufacturers have found other ways of meeting CAT 6 cable requirements. The bottom line is the internal construction of the cable does not matter, so long as it meets all the transmission and physical requirements of CAT 6 cable. The standard does not dictate any particular method of cable construction.
