Overview
- The 8Ware CAT6A Ethernet Cable is a professional-grade network cable designed to deliver reliable, high-speed connectivity across office and home environments. Constructed with a full copper core—not cheaper Copper Clad Aluminium (CCA)—it meets Australian standards and provides superior signal strength compared to lower-quality alternatives.
This 15m cable supports data transfer speeds up to 10 Gbps, making it suitable for current and future network requirements. The snagless RJ45 connectors simplify installation and protect against accidental damage, while robust shielding minimises electromagnetic interference for consistent performance.
Ideal for connecting computers, gaming consoles, media players, and other networked devices to routers, switches, modems, and network infrastructure. Whether you're building a new office network or upgrading existing cabling, this cable delivers the durability and performance expected by IT professionals.

FAQs
What is the difference between CAT6A and standard CAT6 cables?
CAT6A cables support higher speeds (up to 10 Gbps) compared to CAT6 (1 Gbps), and offer better shielding to reduce interference over longer distances. This makes CAT6A ideal for future-proof network installations and high-performance environments.
Why is full copper construction important?
Full copper cores provide superior conductivity and signal integrity compared to Copper Clad Aluminium (CCA). Copper meets Australian standards and delivers better performance, reliability, and durability for professional networking applications.
Can I use this cable for 10 Gbps networks?
Yes. This CAT6A cable is certified to support speeds up to 10 Gbps, making it suitable for both current and next-generation high-speed network infrastructure.
Is 15m long enough for my installation?
The 15m length is suitable for most office and home network installations. For longer runs, contact Hyetech Australia about extended length options or consider using network switches to extend coverage.
What does 'snagless' mean?
Snagless connectors have a protective boot that prevents the clip from catching or breaking during installation, removal, or cable management. This improves durability and reduces installation damage.
Will this cable work with my existing network equipment?
Yes. This CAT6A cable features standard RJ45 connectors and is backward compatible with all CAT6, CAT5e, and earlier network equipment. It works with routers, switches, modems, network cards, and other standard networking devices.
