Category 6A U-UTP Cable
SKU: CS-C6AUU23
4 Pair 23awg Cat 6A U-UTP LSZH Cable.
CONTECH's Category 6A U/UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) cable as an advanced networking cable that surpasses standard Category 6A/Class EA specifications, offering 10 Gigabit Ethernet support over 100 meters at frequencies up to 500MHz. Key features include superior Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC), minimized radiation, enhanced noise immunity, and excellent alien crosstalk (ANEXT) performance due to its high pair balance, making it suitable for high-speed network infrastructure.
Applications:
- Enterprise & Data Centre Networks: 10G Ethernet (10GBASE-T) backbone cabling.
- Residential & Commercial AV/IT & Financial Deployments.
- Education & Healthcare Facilities
- High-Speed PoE++ (802.3bt) Applications
- Future-Proof Installations
Key Features:
- Cat 6A supports frequencies up to 500 MHz .
- Cat6A Supports 10GBASE-T up to 100 m — ideal for data centers, enterprise LANs, and server rooms.
- U-UTP: Internal separators and tighter twists minimize alien crosstalk without shielding.
- Suitable for Power over Ethernet applications (PoE/PoE+/4PPoE) according to IEEE 802.3af, IEEE ,802.3at and 802.3bt Type 4 (PoE++)up to 90W.
- The optional outer LSZH jacket is flame-retardant and produces minimal smoke and zero halogen gases during combustion.
Standard:
- ISO/IEC 11801 Class EA.
- EN 50173-1 & EN 50288-11-1
- ANSI/TIA-568.2-D
- IEC 60332-1, (LSZH Version).
- RoHS & R
