Molex PowerCat Category 6A 4 Pair U/UTP cable, has been designed to support high speed data applications such as IEEE802.3an 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE), along with supporting PoE and wireless applications. The cable construction consists of four twisted pairs with a central cross web and an isolation wrap to mitigate ANEXT. The cable construction minimizes alien crosstalk, provides excellent signal isolation and superior electromagnetic interference (EMI) protection.
Molex recommends the full range of PowerCat Category 6A products be used in a channel to maximize cabling performance. This system is compliant with the latest ISO/IEC 11801 2nd Ed 2.2:2011 and ratified TIA 568-C.2 for the support of Cat 6A and 10GBASE-T.
