FAQs
What is the maximum distance for this CAT6 cable?
The Astrotek CAT6 cable is rated for up to 100 metres per the CAT6 standard. This 50m length is suitable for most office runs and network infrastructure.
Will this cable work with gigabit and multi-gigabit networks?
Yes. CAT6 cables support gigabit Ethernet (1 Gbps) and multi-gigabit protocols. The 26AWG pure copper conductors ensure reliable data transmission at high speeds.
What does 'snagless' mean?
The snagless boot is a protective sleeve around the RJ45 connector that prevents the clip from catching on cable trays, wall fixtures, or other infrastructure during installation. This reduces damage and makes network maintenance easier.
Is this cable shielded or unshielded?
This is an unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable. It is suitable for standard office and indoor network installations. For environments with high electromagnetic interference, consider shielded alternatives.
Can I use this cable for PoE (Power over Ethernet) applications?
Yes. CAT6 cables support Power over Ethernet (PoE) for compatible devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones.
What is included in the 12-month warranty?
The warranty covers manufacturing defects in the cable, connectors, and materials. Damage from misuse, improper installation, or external factors is not covered. Contact Hyetech Australia for warranty claims.
