Category 6A F/FTP Cable
EC500 High Performance Fully Foil-Shielded Data Cable
APPLICATION
- Supports IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T, 100BASE-T, 1000BASE-T and 10GBASE-T; IEEE 802.5 (16 MB), ISDN, TPDDI, ATM and PoE/PoE+ in 500 MHz systems.
- Data centers: Suitable for server connections and high-speed switch-to-switch communication.
- Corporate offices: Suitable for in-building networks requiring high data traffic and 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T) infrastructure.
- Interference-prone environments: Foil shielding helps prevent signal degradation in factories, workshops and other areas with intense electrical noise or electromagnetic fields.
