FAQs
What is the difference between CAT6A and other cable types?

CAT6A cables support higher data rates (up to 10Gbps) compared to CAT6 (up to 1Gbps) and CAT5e (up to 1Gbps). They also have better shielding and reduced crosstalk, making them ideal for future-proofing your network infrastructure.

Why is full copper core important?

Full copper core cables meet Australian standards and deliver superior conductivity and signal quality compared to copper clad aluminium (CCA) alternatives. They provide more reliable performance and better protection against interference.

What do snagless connectors do?

Snagless RJ45 connectors have a protective clip design that prevents the connector from snagging on surfaces during installation or removal, reducing the risk of accidental damage to the connector and cable.

Can I use this cable for 10Gbps networks?

Yes, the 8Ware CAT6A cable supports data speeds up to 10Gbps and is suitable for next-generation network infrastructure upgrades.

What is the warranty coverage?

The 8Ware CAT6A cable comes with a 12-month warranty covering manufacturing defects.

Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?

This is an indoor UTP (unshielded twisted pair) cable. For outdoor applications, weatherproof or shielded variants should be considered.
