Black Box C6APC80S-GN-8 Gigatrue 3 CAT6A Patch Cable Green 8 FT
Overview
The Black Box C6APC80S-GN-8 is an 8-foot, green, Category 6a (Cat6a) patch cable designed to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) network speeds up to 100 meters. This cable is essential for high-bandwidth applications like video surveillance, data center interconnects, and high-performance computing environments where data integrity and speed are critical. Its construction minimizes crosstalk and electromagnetic interference (EMI), ensuring clean signal transmission for demanding network infrastructure. The 8-foot length is ideal for connecting devices within a rack or between adjacent equipment cabinets.
Compatibility
This Cat6a cable is backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e networks, but to achieve its full 10GbE performance, it must be terminated with Cat6a-rated connectors and used with Cat6a-compliant networking equipment. It is suitable for use with network switches, routers, servers, IP cameras, and other network devices requiring a high-speed Ethernet connection. For optimal performance and to meet the stringent requirements of 10GbE, ensure all components in the link are Cat6a rated.
Installation Notes
The cable features a solid copper conductor for superior performance and durability. Avoid sharp bends exceeding a 4x cable diameter radius to prevent internal conductor damage and signal degradation. Ensure connectors are properly seated to maintain the cable's performance specifications and prevent signal loss.
