Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this cable shielded?

This model is U/UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair), which provides reliable performance for most standard office and home networking environments.

Can I use this for outdoor installations?

No, this cable is designed for indoor use. It lacks the UV resistance and weatherproofing required for outdoor deployments.

What does LSZH mean?

LSZH stands for Low Smoke Zero Halogen, which is a cable material that emits very little smoke and no toxic halogens when exposed to high heat or fire.

Does this cable support 1Gbps networks?

Yes, this CAT6a cable is backward compatible and will work perfectly with 10/100/1000Mbps networks.

Are the connectors shielded?

The connectors feature 50u gold-plating for superior conductivity, but the cable itself is U/UTP (unshielded).

Troubleshooting

No network connection detected

Ensure the cable is fully seated in the RJ45 port and that the lock has clicked into place.

Slow transfer speeds

Verify that your hardware and network ports are rated for 10Gbps and check the cable for excessive kinks or sharp bends.

PoE device not powering on

Confirm that your switch or power injector supports the specific PoE standard required by your device.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Supports 10Gbps high-speed networking
  • Snagless design prevents clip breakage
  • LSZH jacket is safer for office and server room use
  • Clear length identification on the boot
  • Gold-plated contacts improve connection longevity

Cons

  • Slightly stiffer cable due to shielding requirements
  • Not intended for extreme outdoor exposure
  • Limited to 3m length in this specific model

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal performance, avoid bending the cable at sharp, acute angles, as this can affect the internal twists and signal integrity. The cable is fully compatible with standard RJ-45 ports on routers, switches, and patch panels. To clean, wipe down with a dry or slightly damp lint-free cloth. Always ensure the latch 'clicks' into place when inserting into a device to guarantee a secure physical connection.
