Overview
- The 8Ware CAT6A 30m Ethernet Cable is a professional-grade network cable designed for Australian businesses and IT installations. Built with full copper core construction, it exceeds Australian standards and avoids the cost-cutting compromises of Copper Clad Aluminium (CCA) alternatives. This ensures safe operation and reliable performance.
With support for speeds up to 10Gbps, the CAT6A specification makes this cable future-proof for modern and next-generation network infrastructure. The snagless RJ45 connectors protect against accidental damage during installation and removal, while robust shielding minimises signal degradation and electromagnetic interference.
The 30-metre length makes it ideal for larger office floors, server rooms, and distributed network layouts where shorter cables would require additional connections and potential performance loss. Whether you're connecting computers to switches, routers to patch panels, or media devices to network infrastructure, this cable delivers the reliability and performance Australian IT professionals expect.

FAQs
What is the difference between CAT6A and CAT6 cables?
CAT6A cables support speeds up to 10Gbps compared to CAT6's 1Gbps maximum. CAT6A also features improved shielding and better performance over longer distances, making it ideal for future-proofing network infrastructure.
Why does 8Ware use full copper instead of CCA?
Full copper construction ensures better conductivity, superior signal strength, and compliance with Australian standards. Copper Clad Aluminium (CCA) is cheaper but offers poorer performance and does not meet Australian regulations for safe network cabling.
Is this cable suitable for 10Gbps networks?
Yes. The CAT6A specification and full copper construction support speeds up to 10Gbps, making it suitable for high-speed data centre and enterprise network installations.
What do snagless connectors do?
Snagless RJ45 connectors have a protective boot that prevents the latch from catching on cable management and patch panel equipment, reducing accidental disconnections and connector damage during installation.
Can I use this cable for outdoor installations?
This cable is designed for indoor use. For outdoor applications, consult Hyetech Australia about weather-resistant cabling options with appropriate UV and moisture protection.
How long is the warranty?
The 8Ware CAT6A cable includes a 12-month manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
Is this cable compatible with existing network equipment?
Yes. The standard RJ45 connectors are compatible with all network devices including routers, switches, patch panels, computers, servers, and media equipment that support Ethernet connections.
