Premium Quality CAT6a S/FTP LSZH Cable - Pure Copper
 
Uses - This premium cable is commonly used for networking and AV installations. It can be cut to length and fitted with 8P8C FTP connectors (also called RJ45 FTP), the standard PC networking connector. If you plan to fit these yourself, you will also need a CAT5/CAT6 crimping tool, which we also supply. The cable has an aluminium braid and each twisted pair within has its own foil shield which helps in areas where there is a lot of interference, to make sure the shield is utilised, please make sure your RJ45 sockets are shielded too.

Available in the following lengths – 305m, 100m, 50m & 25m

PLEASE NOTE – Standard CAT5 RJ45 connectors will NOT fit this cable. 100m, 50m & 25m lengths may not be supplied on a reel.

Made From - Pure copper conductors, this cable has been tested and is certified to the CAT6a specification and is perfectly fine for use over longer distances. 

Colour – purple (signifies the Low Smoke, Zero Halogen Rating)

Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) - Low smoke zero halogen cable is made of thermoplastic that emits a limited amount of smoke and no halogen when exposed to high heat sources such as fire. In a fire, a halogen-containing plastic material releases hydrogen chloride, a poisonous gas that forms hydrochloric acid when it comes in contact with water. Commonly used in buildings for safety in the event of a fire. 

Ease of Use - To make measuring easy the cable is marked at 1 metre intervals.

Wiring – Depending on the application in which you hope to use it, the cable can be wired in both the ‘straight through’ or ‘cross-over’ configurations.

'Cross over' cables are usually used for connecting 2 computers directly to one another, without the use of a Hub or Router. They use 568-A wiring at one end, and 568-B at the other. 

'Straight through' cables can be used for connecting a PC or games console to a Hub/Router, or, in conjunction with AV extender devices, for audio and video distribution throughout a home or commercial project. To create a 'straight through' cable, it should be wired using the same wiring variant at both ends. Either ‘568-A to 568-A’ or ‘568-B to 568-B’
 
Variants – The 2 wiring configurations for CAT5/CAT6 cable. TIA/EIA-568-A & TIA/EIA-568-B have no technical differences between them. However, they connect the wires to the connector in a different order.

Standards - ROHS Compliant
