FAQs
What is the difference between Cat6 ultra-thin and standard Cat6 cables?
Ultra-thin Cat6 cables have a reduced overall diameter, making them ideal for high-density installations where space is limited. They deliver the same Cat6 performance and speed specifications as standard cables whilst occupying less room in patch panels and cable trays.
Is this cable suitable for 10-Gigabit Ethernet networks?
Yes. The 8ware CAT6 cable supports 10-Gigabit Ethernet at frequencies up to 250MHz, making it suitable for high-speed network deployments requiring maximum performance and future-proofing.
Why are gold-plated connectors important?
Gold-plated connectors resist corrosion, reduce signal loss, and provide superior electrical contact. They ensure long-term reliability and maintain signal integrity over extended periods of use in demanding network environments.
What does Fluke-tested mean?
Fluke-tested means the cable has been independently tested using industry-standard Fluke testing equipment to verify compliance with Cat6 performance specifications. This ensures the cable meets rigorous quality and performance standards.
Can I use this cable in patch panels and server racks?
Yes. The ultra-thin design is specifically engineered for high-density installations such as patch panels and server racks where traditional cables may create congestion. The low-profile moulded boots ensure compatibility with standard patch panel configurations.
Is the cable colour-coded for network organisation?
Yes. The red colour coding helps with visual identification and network organisation. The internal conductors follow the standardised T568A colour-coded configuration for compliance with industry wiring standards.
What is the warranty coverage?
The 8ware CAT6 Ultra Thin Cable is backed by a 3 Year Warranty, providing peace of mind and protection against manufacturing defects.
