Product Features
Technical Overview
This CAT6 patch cable operates at 650 MHz and complies with ANSI/TIA-568-2.D standards, verified by ETL testing. It uses 4-pair UTP construction with minimized near-end crosstalk (NEXT) for clear signal integrity. The 50-micron gold plating on connectors enhances conductivity and resists rust, reducing network downtime.
The cable supports IEEE 802.3bt PoE++ standards, enabling up to 100W power delivery for compatible devices. Its 24 AWG copper wiring is UL rated (E132276-A), ensuring safe power transmission with reduced cable heating. The boot design combines snagless and molded features for easy installation in conduits and constrained areas.
