One last thing to keep an eye out for: most Ethernet cabling is of the “patch cable” type, which is used for standard connections such as plugging a NAS drive into a router or a games console into a powerline adapter. However, you may also come across “crossover cables”, which can be used to connect computers directly together. Don’t buy one of these by mistake! The global cabling standard ISO/IEC 11801 has been extended by the addition of amendment 2. This amendment defines new specifications for Cat6A components and Class E A permanent links. These new global Cat6A/ClassE A specifications require a new generation of connecting hardware offering far superior performance compared to the existing products that are based on the American TIA standard. [9] The most important point is a performance difference between ISO/IEC and EIA/TIA component specifications for the NEXT transmission parameter. At a frequency of 500MHz, an ISO/IEC Cat6A connector performs 3dB better than a Cat6A connector that conforms with the EIA/TIA specification (3dB equals 50% reduction of near-end crosstalk noise signal power; see half-power point).

Our cat 6 cables are Full copper 23AWG ideal for indoor use most commonly used for networking although they can be used for sending signals over baluns or even used in CCTV applications.

StarTech doesn’t make the cheapest cables, but they are rigorously tested and have a reputation for reliability. This Cat6 cable comes in blue, white or grey in lengths that cover everything from short patch cables to longer 15m runs. It uses 100% stranded copper conductors with 50-micron gold-plated connectors, and the cables are tested with the industry-standard Fluke tests to ensure they deliver reliable, professional-grade performance. The printing detail along the outer sheath includes the cable part code, specification detail and our new 305 to 0-meterFULL COPPER Category 6 cable with twisted pairs for improved high signal integrity. Most cables are unshielded relying on the twisted pair design for noise rejection Often used in computer networks such as Ethernet connections.

Right now, very few of us have home equipment that supports 10GbE, let alone anything faster. In theory, Cat 5e should cover all your immediate needs, but given that there’s so little price difference between that and Cat 6 or even Cat 6a or Cat 7, it’s worth going for the faster cables now. That goes double if you’re cabling up your home, as it’ll save the bother of replacing cables in the next five years should 10GbE-compatible devices take off. What else do you need to think about? The Giganet Category 6 UTP cables are manufactured and tested to the TIA/EIA 568‐B.2‐1, EN50173‐1 and ISO/ IEC11801 Category 6 specifications.

Those looking to really future proof their network might want to look at the newer Cat 8 standard, which supports speeds of up to 40Gbits/sec at distances of up to 30m using the same RJ45 connectors as Cat 6a. Predictably, though, it’s expensive and mostly used in data centres to hook up the most demanding high-performance network kit. Which category do you need? marked system. As the cable is dispensed from the box the sequential marking counts down from 305 to 0 meters, as well as reducing waste and accounting easily for cables installed, this innovative print legend finally removes the guesswork from assessing the amount of cable remaining in partly used boxes. After the ratification of Category6, manufacturers began offering cables labeled as " Category 6e". This meaningless claim falsely implies that "Cat 6e" is an upgrade to the Category 6 standard, with the name resembling the name of the (legitimate) Category 5e standard. “Cat6e” is not a recognized standard and has no agreed meaning.
