FAQs
What is the difference between 8Ware CAT6A cable and cheaper CCA alternatives?
8Ware cables use full copper core construction, which meets Australian standards and delivers superior signal integrity. Copper-clad aluminium (CCA) cables are cheaper but do not comply with Australian regulations and may pose safety risks. Full copper ensures better performance and reliability for your business network.
Can this cable support 10Gbps networks?
Yes. The 8Ware CAT6A cable is rated for speeds up to 10Gbps, making it suitable for high-speed networks and future-proofing your infrastructure against bandwidth upgrades.
What does 'snagless' connector mean?
Snagless connectors feature a protective tab that prevents the latch from catching on cables during installation and removal, reducing the risk of accidental disconnection and physical damage.
Is a 20-metre cable suitable for my office?
A 20-metre cable is ideal for connecting devices across larger office spaces, separate rooms, or between floors. If you need to cover longer distances, consider multiple cables or professional-grade cabling solutions.
What devices can I connect with this cable?
This cable connects any RJ45-equipped device: computers, servers, network switches, routers, gaming consoles, smart TVs, and media players to your network infrastructure.
Does the cable include a warranty?
Yes. The 8Ware CAT6A cable includes a 12-month manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
Is this cable suitable for both home and office use?
Yes. The cable's robust construction, full copper core, and 10Gbps capability make it equally suitable for home entertainment networks and professional business environments.
