Product Features
Technical Overview
This Category 6 patch cable supports data transfer rates up to 1 Gbit/s, meeting the performance requirements for modern Ethernet networks. It uses 26 AWG stranded copper conductors, which offer flexibility and ease of installation compared to solid-core cables. The cable is unshielded (UTP), making it suitable for environments where electromagnetic interference is minimal.
Key technical features include support for Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing the cable to deliver both data and power to compatible devices. The cable also incorporates Near End Cross Talk (NEXT) mitigation to reduce signal interference, ensuring reliable data integrity. The gold-plated contacts enhance conductivity and resist oxidation over time.
Key Product Advantages
This patch cable combines durability with performance, offering several advantages for network deployments. The snagless boot and strain relief features protect the connectors from damage during frequent use, extending the cable's lifespan. The CM-rated jacket is suitable for in-wall installations, providing compliance with building codes for commercial spaces.
