FAQs
What is the difference between CAT6A and cheaper CCA cables?
8Ware CAT6A cables use full copper core construction, which meets Australian standards and delivers superior signal strength. Cheaper CCA (Copper Clad Aluminium) alternatives are not compliant with Australian regulations and may pose safety risks. Full copper cables provide better performance and durability.
What network speeds does the 8Ware CAT6A support?
The cable supports network speeds of 10Mbps, 100Mbps, 1000Mbps (1Gbps), and up to 10Gbps, making it suitable for both current networks and future upgrades.
Are the connectors snagless, and why does that matter?
Yes, the RJ45 connectors are snagless, meaning they won't catch or tear when plugged in or removed. This design protects the connector clips from damage, ensuring secure connections and easier installation in tight spaces.
Can I use this cable for gaming consoles and media players?
Yes, the 8Ware CAT6A is ideal for connecting gaming consoles, smart TVs, media players, and other networked devices to your router, modem, or network switch.
What is the warranty on this cable?
The 8Ware CAT6A comes with a 12-month manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
This cable is designed for indoor use. For outdoor applications, consult with your network provider or supplier about outdoor-rated alternatives.
Why choose a 50-metre cable instead of shorter lengths?
A 50-metre cable reduces the need for multiple shorter cables and connectors, minimising connection points that could degrade signal quality. It's ideal for large offices, distributed floor plans, or installations requiring extended cable runs.
