FAQ
What is the maximum data transfer speed supported by this cable?
This Cat6a patch cable supports data transfer rates up to 10 Gbit/s (10 Gigabits per second), making it suitable for high-speed network applications including Gigabit Ethernet and beyond. It meets Category 6a specifications for performance up to 500 MHz, ensuring reliable throughput for demanding environments like data centers or office networks.
Is this cable shielded, and why does that matter?
Yes, this cable features shielding with EMI/RF protection. Shielding helps prevent electromagnetic and radio frequency interference from disrupting signal clarity, which is crucial in environments with multiple cables or electronic devices. This ensures consistent performance and reduces data errors, especially over the 35-foot length.
Can this cable be used for Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices?
Absolutely. This cable supports both PoE and PoE++ (Power over Ethernet Plus Plus), allowing it to deliver power and data simultaneously to compatible devices. It's ideal for VoIP phones, wireless access points, IP surveillance cameras, and other PoE-enabled equipment, with features like strain relief to handle the additional power load.
What does the CM jacket rating mean?
The CM (Communications Multipurpose) jacket rating indicates that the cable is suitable for use in plenum spaces or other areas where fire safety is a concern. This jacket type meets specific flammability and smoke production standards, making it a safe choice for in-wall installations or commercial buildings where cable runs may be exposed.
What types of devices are compatible with this patch cable?
This cable is compatible with a wide range of network devices, including network devices, PoE-enabled devices, VoIP devices, switches, surveillance cameras, servers, routers, patch panels, modems, and hubs. Its standard RJ-45 male connectors ensure easy connectivity with most Ethernet ports, providing versatility for various networking setups.
