FAQs
What is the difference between CAT6 Ultra Thin and standard CAT6 cable?
Ultra Thin CAT6 cable uses a slimmer jacket to reduce diameter whilst maintaining full Category 6 performance specifications. This makes it ideal for high-density patch panels and cable trays where space is limited. Standard CAT6 has a thicker jacket but the electrical performance is equivalent.
Will this cable support 10-Gigabit Ethernet speeds?
Yes. The 8ware CAT6 Ultra Thin cable is rated for 10-Gigabit Ethernet. However, 10-Gigabit performance may be limited to shorter distances (typically up to 55 metres) compared to 1 Gigabit, depending on network infrastructure and conditions.
Are the connectors gold-plated?
Yes. The RJ45 connectors feature gold-plated contacts, which provide superior corrosion resistance and ensure reliable electrical connections over time.
What does Fluke tested mean?
Fluke testing is an industry-standard certification process that verifies cable performance against Category 6 specifications. It confirms the cable meets standards for signal integrity, crosstalk, and noise performance.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
This is an indoor unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable. For outdoor or external applications, shielded or outdoor-rated cables are recommended to protect against environmental factors.
What warranty is included?
The 8ware CAT6 Ultra Thin cable includes a 3-year manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
Can I use this cable with older network equipment?
Yes. CAT6 cables are backwards compatible with older standards including CAT5e, CAT5, and Fast Ethernet equipment. However, the cable will only perform at the speed supported by the older equipment.
