FAQs
What's the difference between CAT6 and CAT5e cables?
CAT6 cables offer higher bandwidth (250MHz vs 100MHz) and better performance for crosstalk and system noise. They support 10-Gigabit Ethernet, making them future-proof for growing network demands.
Why choose an ultra-thin patch cable?
Ultra-thin cables are designed for high-density patch panels where space is limited. They allow more cables to fit without compromising on performance or reliability, ideal for data centres and busy network rooms.
Is this cable suitable for 10-Gigabit Ethernet?
Yes, the 8ware CAT6 cable supports 10-Gigabit Ethernet, though CAT6 is rated for this at shorter distances compared to CAT6A. It performs reliably for standard Gigabit installations and higher speeds depending on distance requirements.
What does Fluke tested mean?
Fluke testing is industry-standard certification that verifies the cable meets CAT6 performance specifications for bandwidth, crosstalk, and signal integrity. It ensures quality and reliability for professional installations.
Can I use this cable outdoors?
This is an indoor UTP patch cable. For outdoor use, you'll need outdoor-rated cables with UV and weather protection. Check with us for suitable outdoor alternatives.
What's included with this cable?
The 8ware CAT6 Ultra Thin cable comes ready to use with moulded RJ45 connectors at both ends. No additional termination or assembly is required.
