CAT 6A F/UTP vs. UTP: What You Need to Know
CAT6A Ethernet cable supports 10-Gigabit speeds over 100-meter LAN segments at lower costs compared to fiber cabling, making them the primary choice for new installs.
CAT6A can support the ever-increasing demand of Power over Ethernet (PoE), including 4PPoE (99 watts) without the risk of cable or circuit burns.
Current 802.11ac/ad access points can deliver speeds up to 6.7 Gbps, future standards are likely to support up 10-Gigabit. To really benefit from these higher bandwidth, CAT6A is recommended for horizontal cabling to WiFi access points.
CAT6A supports ultra-high-definition video-over-IP distribution, making this solution perfect for 4K 60 AV-over-IP, KVM-over-IP, and digital signage applications.
HDBaseT is a popular technology for point-to-point extensions of uncompressed full HD video, audio, Ethernet, power and control data over a single CAT5e/6/6A cable. Black Box features CAT6A cables delivering optimum performance for these 5-Play services.
CAT6A is compatible with existing CAT5e and CAT6 installs. It is also compliant with the TIA/EIA-568-B.2-10 and ISO/IEC 11801 industry standards, ETL verified and UL approved.
CAT6A fully meets the specification for alien crosstalk reductions, means it is not affected by wire in nearby cables granting a reliable transmission.
Black Box ensures high quality in its shielded and unshielded CAT6A components and regular testing by independent institutes. Their design ensures effortless installs and maximum conductivity for high-speed signal transmissions.
Select from shielded or unshielded models, cables with solid or stranded wires, CM, CMR, Plenum or LZ0H jackets in multiple colors, molded, snagless, slim and/or lockable connectors.
CAT6A structured cabling solution can be used in multiple applications, below are some examples of common usage in certain verticals.
