What is the difference between CAT6A and cheaper CCA cables?
8Ware CAT6A cables use full copper core construction, which meets Australian standards and regulatory requirements. Cheaper CCA (Copper Clad Aluminium) cables are not compliant with Australian regulations and can pose safety risks. Copper core cables deliver superior signal strength and reliability.

The 8Ware CAT6A cable supports network speeds of 10Mbps, 100Mbps, 1Gbps, and up to 10Gbps, making it suitable for both legacy and modern high-speed networks.
Is the 1-metre length suitable for my setup?
The 1-metre length is ideal for short-distance connections between nearby devices such as computers to switches, routers to modems, or media players to network devices. For longer distances, consider longer cable lengths from the 8Ware range.
What does 'snagless' mean?
Snagless connectors feature a protective boot that prevents the latch from catching on cables or equipment during installation and removal, reducing damage and making connections easier to manage.
Can I use this cable for gaming and streaming?
Yes. The CAT6A cable's support for 10Gbps speeds makes it ideal for gaming consoles, media streaming devices, and other high-bandwidth applications, ensuring stable and fast connectivity.
