Overview
- The 8Ware CAT6A Cable is a professional-grade network patch cord constructed with full copper core materials, ensuring compliance with Australian standards and superior performance. At 10 metres in length, it provides flexible connectivity for offices, data centres, and home networks without compromising signal integrity.
Built for speed and reliability, this cable supports gigabit and 10 gigabit Ethernet, making it suitable for modern high-bandwidth applications. The snagless RJ45 connectors protect against accidental disconnection and damage, while the robust construction offers enhanced durability and better protection against interference.
Unlike cheaper alternatives using Copper Clad Aluminium (CCA), 8Ware cables are constructed with full copper cores that deliver consistent performance and meet regulatory requirements. The bright orange colour aids in cable identification and network management, a practical feature for busy IT environments.

FAQs
What is the difference between CAT6A and other cable categories?
CAT6A cables support faster speeds up to 10 Gigabit per second, compared to CAT6 (10 Gbps at shorter distances) and CAT5e (1 Gbps). They offer improved bandwidth and are ideal for future-proofing network installations.
Why is full copper construction important?
Full copper cores provide superior conductivity and signal integrity compared to Copper Clad Aluminium (CCA). They meet Australian standards, are more durable, and deliver consistent performance without regulatory compliance issues.
Can I use this cable for 10 Gigabit networks?
Yes, the 8Ware CAT6A cable is rated to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections, making it suitable for high-speed data centre and server applications.
What does 'snagless' mean?
Snagless connectors have a protective clip design that reduces the risk of accidental disconnection and prevents the connector from snagging on cables or equipment during installation and maintenance.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
This is an indoor patch cable (UTP). For outdoor applications, you should use outdoor-rated cables with appropriate shielding and weatherproofing.
How should I store and handle this cable?
Store the cable in a cool, dry location. Avoid excessive bending, kinks, or crushing. When installing, do not bend the cable sharply at the connectors, as this may damage the internal wiring.
What is the warranty period?
The 8Ware CAT6A Cable includes a 12-month manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
