PRO2 PATCH LEAD CAT6A SHIELDED BLUE Category 6a (CAT6 Augmented) is defined at frequencies of upto 500Mhz, twice that of CAT6. At these high speeds cross talk, in particular alien crosstalk, presents a significant issue to reliable operation. PRO2 CAT6a patch leads are individually shielded or PiMF (pairs in metal foil) which help to reduce or eliminate these issues. Why use shielded cable? Depending on the environment where network cable is run, it may have a large amount of EMI (Electro-Magnetic Interference). Although CAT6a cables have improved cable twist to handle gigabit Ethernet and reject noise, this by itself is not enough for environments that have high EMI. Using a shielded CAT6a cable will help in these high EMI installations. CAT6a Patch Lead Features Individually tested to ensure CAT6a Component Level compliance (Up to 20m) Double shielded, inner pairs are also individual shielded Available in a range of sizes Backward-compatible with CAT5, CAT5e and CAT6 26 AWG Conformant Standards AS/CA S008:2010 TIA/EIA 568-C ISO/IEC 11801& EN 50288 ROHS Compliant
