- Datasheet
- Category & Speed: Category 6A (Class EA) support, delivering 10GBase-T speeds up to 550 MHz with full backward compatibility.
- Cable Construction: F/UTP (Foiled/Unshielded Twisted Pair), featuring an overall aluminum foil shield that protects against EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) and RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) while reducing alien crosstalk.
- Jacket Material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen), which emits limited smoke and no toxic halogen gases during combustion, making it safer for confined or populated spaces.
- Safety Rating: CM (Communications Rated), indicating it is suitable for general-purpose in-wall and building installations per NEC standards.
- Length & Color: 3 Meters (approx. 10 ft) in Gray, often used to distinguish network segments or match specific color-coding schemes.
🛡️ Physical & Environmental Features
- Conductors: High-quality bare copper (typically 26AWG or 24AWG) for low signal attenuation and stable transmission.
- Connectors: RJ45 plugs with 50μ" gold-plated contacts to resist oxidation and ensure long-term reliability over many plug/unplug cycles.
- Strain Relief: Often equipped with a snagless boot to protect the locking tab from breaking during installation and provide extra strain relief.
- Power over Ethernet (PoE): Fully supports PoE/PoE+/PoE++ (IEEE 802.3af/at/bt), allowing it to safely power devices like cameras and access points.
- Standards Compliance: Meets ANSI/TIA-568.2-D and ISO/IEC 11801 specifications, often verified through Fluke channel testing.
