Can Category 6A cabling be installed in the same pathway as Category 5e and Category 6 cabling?

February 4, 2020

Category 6A cabling may be placed unbundled or in adjacent bundles within the same pathway as Category 5e and Category 6 cabling without adversely affecting application performance. Category 5e, 6 and 6A cables may also be placed in the same pathway as optical fiber and both RG-6 and RG-11 coaxial cabling. For additional information of this topic, see TIA TSB-190 Guidelines on Shared Pathways and Shared Sheaths.
