The Cat6a Copper UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) Patch Lead is an enhanced high-performance data transmission solution engineered for low-EMI environments requiring full-distance 10Gbps connectivity. Compliant with TIA/EIA-568-C.2-1, ISO/IEC 11801 Class EA, and EN 50173-1 standards, it features an advanced twisted pair design to suppress crosstalk and signal degradation, supporting 10GBASE-T (10 Gigabit Ethernet) up to 100 meters—doubling the full-speed distance of Cat6. Ideal for high-traffic networks where bandwidth, reliability, and cost efficiency need to be balanced.
Core Technical Specifications
Conductor Material: 23AWG/24AWG Solid/Bundled Pure Copper (99.9% conductivity) – lower resistance than Cat6, ensuring stable 10Gbps transmission at 100m
Insulation: HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) with precision extruded thickness – flame-retardant, ultra-low dielectric loss, minimizes signal attenuation at high frequencies
Twisting Structure: 4 pairs of enhanced-twist conductors (20-30 twists/ft) + pair-separating spline – eliminates alien crosstalk (AXT) and optimizes NEXT/FEXT suppression
Jacket Material: PVC (RoHS-compliant) or LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) – flexible, tear-resistant, eco-friendly options for diverse installation environments
Connector Type: RJ45 8P8C with 50μ Gold-Plated Contacts – anti-oxidation, corrosion-resistant, 1500+ insertion cycles (higher durability than Cat6 standard)
Transmission Performance: Bandwidth: 500 MHz (double Cat6); Attenuation: ≤35.3 dB (100m, 500MHz); NEXT: ≥32.9 dB (100m, 500MHz); AXT: ≥31.7 dB (100m, 500MHz); Return Loss: ≥12.0 dB (100m, 500MHz)
Operating Temperature: -20°C to 60°C (PVC) / -40°C to 75°C (LSZH) – adaptable to indoor/outdoor general-use scenarios
Physical Characteristics: Diameter: 5.8-6.8mm (PVC); 6.0-7.0mm (LSZH); Weight: 0.09-0.13kg/m – lightweight yet robust for easy routing and cable management
Key Performance Advantages
10Gbps Full-Distance Transmission (100m)
500MHz bandwidth enables error-free 10Gbps data transfer up to 100 meters (vs. Cat6’s 55m for 10Gbps), eliminating the need for costly fiber upgrades in mid-to-large networks (offices, campuses, data centers).
Advanced Anti-Crosstalk Technology
Integrated pair-separating spline and enhanced twist rate suppress alien crosstalk (AXT) – the main bottleneck for Cat6 at 10Gbps – ensuring signal integrity in dense cabling racks or high-density deployments.
Cost-Effective High-Performance Upgrade
Delivers Cat6a-level 10Gbps capability without the added cost of shielding (vs. Cat6a SFTP/STP), maintaining UTP’s lightweight, flexible, and easy-to-install advantages for large-scale deployments.
Backward & Forward Compatibility
Fully compatible with Cat6/Cat5e/Cat5 systems and legacy devices (routers, switches, IP cameras), while future-proofing networks for emerging high-bandwidth applications (8K video streaming, AI data processing, cloud-native services).
Strict Safety & Global Compliance
RoHS, CE, FCC, UL 444, and ISO 9001 certified; LSZH jacket meets EU EN 50265-2-1 (fire safety) and EN 50524 (low smoke toxicity), supporting seamless export to global markets.
Wide Application Scenarios
Enterprise & Campus Backbones: Office building LANs, university campuses, corporate data networks (full 10Gbps connectivity across large spaces)
Medium-to-Large Data Centers: Server-to-switch, switch-to-switch connections, storage area networks (SAN) – high-density cabling with no 10Gbps distance limitations
High-Bandwidth Commercial Spaces: Conference centers, media studios, co-working spaces (support for 4K/8K video conferencing, live streaming)
Smart Buildings & IoT Networks: High-density IP camera systems, smart lighting, building automation (handles large volumes of IoT data transmission)
SOHO & Professional Workspaces: Home offices, design studios, gaming setups (reliable high-speed connectivity for data-intensive tasks)
Customization & Quality Assurance
Custom Options:
Length: 0.5m-50m (custom lengths available for bulk orders)
Jacket Color: Blue, gray, black, white, or custom Pantone colors (for network segmentation)
Conductor Type: 23AWG (long-distance deployments) or 24AWG (standard use); solid copper (fixed installations) or bundled copper (flexible scenarios)
Jacket Material: Standard PVC (cost-effective) or LSZH (eco-friendly/low-smoke requirements)
Quality Control:
100% FLUKE DSX-12000 testing (Cat6a-specific certification) for attenuation, crosstalk, and AXT suppression;
Strict batch sampling for conductor purity and jacket durability;
3-year warranty against manufacturing defects (extended from Cat6’s 2-year coverage)
