FAQs
What is the difference between 8Ware CAT6 cables and cheaper CCA alternatives?
8Ware cables are constructed with full copper core wire, which meets Australian standards and delivers superior signal strength and reliability. CCA (Copper Clad Aluminium) cables are cheaper but do not meet Australian regulations and are potentially unsafe. Full copper core cables provide better conductivity and durability.
What speeds does this CAT6 cable support?
This cable supports network speeds of 10Mbps, 100Mbps, 1000Mbps (Gigabit), and up to 10Gbps, making it suitable for both legacy and modern high-speed network infrastructure.
Why are snagless connectors important?
Snagless connectors prevent the latch from catching on cables during insertion and removal, reducing strain on the connector and cable jacket. This extends the life of the cable and makes installation easier.
Is the 7-metre length suitable for my office setup?
A 7-metre cable is suitable for most office installations, including connecting computers to wall-mounted switches, routers, or patch panels. Measure your distance first to ensure adequate length for your specific requirements.
What is the warranty coverage for this cable?
This cable includes a 12-month manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
Can I use this cable in data centre or server room environments?
Yes, the robust construction and full copper core make this cable suitable for data centre patch panel installations and professional server room applications.
What does 26AWG mean and why does it matter?
26AWG refers to the American Wire Gauge, indicating the thickness of the copper conductors. A 26AWG gauge provides robust signal transmission and is standard for quality CAT6 cables, ensuring reliable performance across longer distances.
