NEC 800.179 states "Conductors in communications cables, other than coaxial, shall be copper".
So in those States that have adopted NEC, that would suggest that installing CCA CatX would violate NEC, and hence violate State Law. Correct?
And yet, most Cat5e/Cat6 being sold (online) is CCA (Copper Clad Aluminium).
So is this a crazy situation that it is legal to buy CCA CatX, but it is not legal to install CCA CatX, or something else?
