FAQs
What is the difference between 8Ware CAT6A cables and cheaper CCA alternatives?
8Ware cables are constructed with full copper core, which provides superior conductivity and signal strength. Cheaper CCA (Copper Clad Aluminium) cables do not meet Australian standards and regulations. Full copper construction ensures better durability, protection, and reliability for network applications.
What speeds does the 8Ware CAT6A 40m cable support?
This cable supports network speeds of 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, 1000 Mbps (1 Gigabit), and 10 Gbps, making it suitable for modern high-speed networks.
What does 'snagless' mean on the RJ45 connectors?
Snagless connectors feature a protective boot that prevents the latch from catching on cables and infrastructure during installation and removal. This reduces damage risk and makes the connector more durable.
Is the 8Ware CAT6A cable suitable for outdoor use?
The cable is designed for indoor use in home and office networks. For outdoor applications, weather-resistant cables specifically designed for external conditions should be used.
How long is the warranty on the 8Ware CAT6A cable?
The cable is covered by a 12-month manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
Can I use this cable for running at full 10Gbps speeds?
Yes. As a CAT6A cable, it is rated to support 10Gbps speeds when properly installed and terminated. Performance depends on overall network infrastructure quality.
What devices can I connect with this cable?
The cable can connect computers, printers, gaming consoles, smart TVs, media players, and other network devices to modems, routers, network switches, and patch panels.
