FAQs
What is the difference between CAT6A and CAT6 cables?
CAT6A cables support higher bandwidth and faster data transmission speeds than CAT6. CAT6A is rated for up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet over shorter distances, making it suitable for modern high-performance networks.
What does 'snagless' mean on an Ethernet cable?
Snagless connectors have a protective boot that prevents the locking tab from catching or breaking during installation and removal. This makes the cable easier to handle and more durable.
Is 0.5m long enough for my network setup?
A 0.5m cable is ideal for short connections in patch panels, equipment racks, and switch stacks. For longer distances between equipment, you may need a longer cable length.
Why is the cable yellow?
The yellow colour provides visual identification and helps organise cables in complex network environments. This makes it easier for IT staff to trace connections and manage infrastructure.
Is this cable suitable for PoE (Power over Ethernet) applications?
Yes, CAT6A UTP cables support PoE applications. However, for PoE+ or higher power requirements, consult your equipment specifications to ensure compatibility.
What is the warranty coverage?
The 8Ware CAT6A cable is covered by a 12-month warranty from the date of purchase, protecting against manufacturing defects.
