Stranded is for patch cables. If you buy a 1000' box of plenum rated (for example) it will be solid core.

j.,
Sorry. I got metric/US mixed up again. Agree.
But, I still do chafe at the "solid-core" business.
Most of the cat5/6 cables I have looked at do NOT use "solid-core" wire. I mostly see multiple-strand (tiny) copper wire.
Perhaps the same as the old 18/22 gauge inside-the-home wire of old.
I wonder.............. :)
Best,
Duncan

100m, not feet, with sold core is the spec AFAIK.
