The PowerCat 6A Shielded Cable is a key component of the PowerCat 6A end-to-end solution.
Molex PowerCat 6A F/UTP Cable is specifically designed to support high speed data network applications such as 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASET). The cable is constructed of four insulated copper twisted pairs that are wrapped around aluminum foil and polyester jacket. This cable minimizes alien crosstalk, provides excellent signal isolation and provides superior electromagnetic interference (EMI) protection.
Molex recommends that the full range of PowerCat 6A Shielded products be used in a system to maximize cabling performance.
This system is fully compliant with channel requirments specified by the ANSI/TIA-568.2-D, TIA-568-C.2, Cat 6A and ISO/IEC 11801 for 10GBASE-T applications.

Materials:
0.57 mm (23 AWG), bare copper wire insulated with FEP (Plenum) or PE
(polyethylene). Two insulated conductors twisted together with varying lays to
form a pair and four pairs laid up to form the basic unit. The cable is shielded
with an overall polyester/aluminum foil with stranded tinned copper drain
wire and jacketed in flame-retardant PVC.
