FAQs
Why choose 8Ware CAT6 cables over cheaper alternatives?
8Ware cables are constructed with full copper core wire and meet Australian standards. Cheaper competitors often use CCA (Copper Clad Aluminium), which does not meet Australian regulations and offers inferior signal quality. 8Ware's robust materials provide better protection, superior signal strength, and greater resistance to damage.
What network speeds does this CAT6 cable support?
The 8Ware CAT6 cable supports 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps (gigabit) networks, making it compatible with modern and legacy network infrastructure.
Is this cable suitable for gaming consoles and streaming devices?
Yes. The cable is ideal for connecting gaming consoles, smart TVs, media players, and other networked devices to your router, modem, or switch for reliable, high-speed connectivity.
What does the 0.25m length work best for?
The 0.25m (25cm) length is ideal for short-run connections, such as between nearby network devices, patch panels, or wall outlets where space is limited.
Is the cable shielded?
This is an UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) cable. The robust jacket provides protection, but it is not fully shielded like STP cables. It is suitable for standard home and office network environments.
What warranty is included?
8Ware provides a 12-month manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
