FAQs
What is the difference between Cat6 and Cat5e cables?
Cat6 cables support higher bandwidth (250MHz vs 100MHz) and are designed for better performance in Gigabit and 10-Gigabit Ethernet networks. Cat6 has more stringent specifications for crosstalk and system noise, making it suitable for demanding professional installations.
Is this cable suitable for 10-Gigabit Ethernet?
Yes. The 8ware Cat6 cable meets ISO/IEC 11801 Category 6 standards and supports 10-Gigabit Ethernet transmission, making it ideal for modern high-speed networks.
Why is the ultra-thin design important?
Ultra-thin cables are essential in high-density patch panel environments where space is limited. The reduced profile allows more cables to fit in the same area without compromising performance or signal integrity.
What does Fluke tested mean?
Fluke testing is an industry-standard certification process that verifies cable performance and compliance with network standards. It ensures the cable meets strict quality and transmission requirements.
Are the connectors gold-plated?
Yes. The RJ45 connectors are gold-plated, which provides superior conductivity, reduces signal loss, and improves resistance to corrosion over time.
What warranty is included?
The 8ware Cat6 cable comes with a 3-year manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
Can I use this cable outdoors?
This is an indoor UTP cable. For outdoor applications, outdoor-rated or shielded cables are recommended to protect against environmental exposure and interference.
