FAQs
What is the difference between 8Ware CAT6 cables and cheaper CCA alternatives?
8Ware cables use full copper core construction, which meets Australian standards and provides superior signal strength and durability. Cheaper CCA (Copper Clad Aluminium) cables do not meet Australian regulations and are potentially unsafe. Genuine copper delivers better protection against interference and longer cable life.
What speeds does this CAT6 cable support?
The 8Ware CAT6 cable supports data rates of 10Mbps, 100Mbps, 1000Mbps (Gigabit), and up to 10Gbps, making it suitable for both legacy and modern high-speed networks.
Why are snagless connectors important?
Snagless RJ45 connectors prevent the connector tabs from catching or breaking during installation, removal, or reconfiguration. This improves reliability and reduces downtime from cable damage.
Is a 15-metre cable suitable for my office?
A 15-metre cable is ideal for most office and home network installations, allowing you to connect devices across typical room and floor distances. If you need longer runs, consider multiple cables or cable extensions.
What does the green jacket indicate?
The green jacket is a colour identifier that helps distinguish this cable from others in complex network installations. It makes it easier to trace and manage cables during setup and maintenance.
Is this cable suitable for gaming consoles and media players?
Yes, the CAT6 cable is ideal for connecting gaming consoles, media players, and streaming devices to routers and network switches, providing the reliable, high-speed connectivity these devices require.
