FAQs
What is the difference between 8Ware CAT6A cables and cheaper CCA alternatives?
8Ware CAT6A cables are constructed with full copper core, which meets Australian standards and delivers superior signal strength. Cheaper CCA (Copper Clad Aluminium) cables do not meet Australian regulations and are potentially unsafe. 8Ware cables provide better protection, durability, and performance.
What speeds does this CAT6A cable support?
The 8Ware CAT6A cable supports 10 Gbps maximum speed and is backward compatible with 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps networks, making it suitable for current and future network infrastructure.
What does 'snagless' mean, and why does it matter?
Snagless RJ45 connectors feature a protective design that prevents the clip from catching on other cables during installation and removal. This reduces the risk of accidental damage to both the cable and the connector.
Is the 5-metre length suitable for my installation?
The 5-metre length is ideal for most office, home, and small data centre installations. Measure the distance between your devices to confirm suitability. For longer runs, consider multiple cables or contact Hyetech Australia for alternative lengths.
Can I use this cable for gaming consoles and media players?
Yes. The CAT6A cable is suitable for connecting gaming consoles, media players, smart TVs, and other network devices to your modem, router, or switch, delivering reliable, high-speed connectivity.
What warranty is included?
The 8Ware CAT6A cable includes a 12-month manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
