Cat6a Patch Cables enable 10-Gigabit data transmission over a 4-connector twisted pair copper cable, allowing connection distances of up to 100m. Current Cat6 cabling systems may only support 10-Gigabit Ethernet over limited distances. The Cat6a draft extends the Cat6 electrical specifications from 250MHz to 500MHz. It also proposes a new measurement for Power-Sum Alien crosstalk to 500MHz. Alien Crosstalk is a coupled signal in a disturbed pair arising from a signal in a neighboring cable.
Supports IEEE 802.3af® and is DTE power compliant
Compatible with T568A and T568B wiring
Provides NEXT performance beyond 600MHz
Low-profile hood is ideal for high density switch applications
