Customized Cat6a Snagless Shielded (S/FTP) Ethernet Network Patch Cable
Key attributes
The skywardcable cat6a patch cables conductor apply Pure Bare Copper with high electrical conductivity and low signal transmission attenuation. The shielded patch cord provides superior alien crosstalk (AXT) suppression and protects critical data from electromagnetic and radio frequency interference (EMI/RFI). Available sheath materials include PVC/PVC CMX/PVC CM/LSZH, which are durable, flame-retardant, resistant to bending. Stranded copper patch cable can be used with a longer flex-life. The cable supports PoE to save you the expense and effort of powering PoE devices individually. You can also install PoE devices in locations distant from power outlets, such as high on walls, ceilings or poles.

FAQ
Q1: What are the differences between Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6a? Which one should an enterprise choose?
A1: Cat5e supports speeds of up to 1Gb and is suitable for standard office networks; Cat6 supports 10Gb (over short distances) and offers superior interference resistance; Cat6a provides 10Gb transmission over a full distance of 100 meters, making it ideal for server rooms and high-density environments. For general enterprise office networks, Cat6 is typically sufficient.
Q2: Can Cat6 network cables support 10Gbps? What is the maximum distance?
A2: Cat6 can support 10Gb, but the transmission distance is recommended to be kept within 55 meters; exceeding this limit may result in signal attenuation.
Q3: Which should enterprises choose: "Pure Copper" or "CCA" network cables?
A3: Pure Copper cables offer superior conductivity and durability, making them suitable for long-term enterprise cabling installations; CCA (Copper-Clad Aluminum) cables are inexpensive but suffer from poorer performance and durability, and are therefore not recommended for critical network applications.
Q4: Does the length of a network cable affect network speed?
A4: Cat5e supports a maximum length of 100 meters, while Cat6 supports 10Gbps over a maximum distance of 55 meters. Exceeding these standard lengths may lead to signal attenuation and a reduction in network speed.
Q5: Is it important to ensure compatibility between network cables, switches, and routers?
A5: It is extremely important. The category rating of the network cable should match the speed capabilities of the connected devices; otherwise, the network will be unable to achieve its full performance potential.
