Our category 6A twisted pair cables are standardized to 23 AWG and are the ideal solution for 10 Gigabit Ethernet. We provide a positive PSACR beyond 500 MHz for evolving bandwidth requirements. They are designed with shielding to offer maximum pair separation which directly increases key electrical performance parameters.
Construction
Solid bare copper conductors insulated with PVC. Two insulated conductors twisted together to form a pair and four such pairs cabled to form the basic unit. A cross filler is cabled in between to separate the 4 pairs insulated conductors. The overall double jacket is with PVC, LSZH, PE compound.
