Network Cable cat6 cat6a
CAT6 and CAT6A are two types of high-performance twisted pair cables, mainly used for high-speed network communication. CAT6 supports up to 250 MHz frequency and is suitable for gigabit Ethernet (1 Gbps) and 100BASE-T (10 Gbps). CAT6A (Augmented CAT6) supports up to 500 MHz frequency and can stably support 10GBASE-T networks with a transmission distance of up to 100 meters.
Model
Category 6 Non-shielded Twisted Pair and Enhanced Category 6 Shielded Twisted Pair
Number of Cores
8 cores (4 pairs)
Structure description:
The structure of CAT6 network cable
● Conductor material: high-purity oxygen-free copper
● Specification: 23 or 24 AWG.
● Insulation material: high-density polyethylene (HDPE).
Function: isolate conductors, prevent short circuits, and reduce signal loss.
● Twisted pair structure: four pairs of twisted pairs, each pair of wires is twisted with different twist lengths.
Function: reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk.
●Shielding layer type: mostly unshielded (UTP), there are also shielded versions (STP or FTP).
Function: reduce external electromagnetic interference and improve signal transmission quality.
● Filling material: polypropylene (PP) or polyethylene (PE).
Function: maintain the round structure of the cable and enhance tensile strength.
● Outer sheath material: polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or low smoke zero halogen (LSZH).
Function: protect the internal structure from mechanical damage and environmental impact.
The structure of CAT6a network cable
● Conductor material: high-purity oxygen-free copper
● Specification: 23 or 24 AWG.
●Insulation layer material: higher quality high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or other high-performance materials.
Function: isolate the conductor, prevent short circuit, and reduce signal loss.
● Twisted pair structure: four pairs of twisted pairs, each pair of wires is twisted with different twist lengths.
Function: reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) ad crosstalk.
● Shielding layer type: usually adopts a more complex shielding design (such as S/FTP or F/FTP).
Function: reduce external electromagnetic interference and improve signal transmission quality.
● Filling material: polypropylene (PP) or polyethylene (PE).
Function: maintain the round structure of the cable and enhance the tensile strength.
● Outer sheath material: higher quality polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or low smoke zero halogen (LSZH).
Function: protect the internal structure from mechanical damage and environmental impact.
