FAQ

What is the difference between STP and FTP cables?

  • STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) cables feature individual shielding around each pair of wires, offering protection against EMI.

  • FTP (Foil Twisted Pair) cables have a single foil shield that covers all the pairs together, providing a simpler and often more cost-effective solution for protecting against interference.

What is the maximum distance for 10GbE using Cat 6A cables?

Cat 6A cables support 10 Gbps speeds up to 100 meters (328 feet), which is ideal for most commercial and residential network installations.

What is the difference between CMR and CMP rated cables?

  • CMR (Riser-rated) cables are suitable for vertical runs between floors and should not be used in air handling spaces.

  • CMP (Plenum-rated) cables are designed for use in air ducts and ceiling spaces, where low smoke emissions are required in case of a fire.

Can I use Cat 6A cables for 1GbE networks?

Yes, Cat 6A cables are backward compatible with lower-speed networks, including 1 Gigabit Ethernet (1GbE), providing high-performance and future-proofing for network upgrades.

Are these cables suitable for outdoor use?

The Cat 6A Shielded Bulk Cable is primarily designed for indoor use, though we do offer cables suitable for outdoor installations on our website.

How do I install Cat 6A shielded cables?

Cat 6A cables can be installed like any other Ethernet cables, but it is important to use shielded connectors and ensure proper grounding when using shielded cables to maintain their EMI protection.
