CAT6A Cabling Solution for High-Performance 10 Gigabit Ethernet and above
To achieve performance well beyond the 500-Mhz CAT6A specification of your structured cabling system, choose Black Box CAT6A channel solutions. They are ideal for small, medium, and large network installations with high network loads.
Our CAT6A structured cabling channel solution consists of CAT6A bulk and patch Ethernet cable, patch panels, and keystone jacks. Each part of the solution is tested individually in an end-to-end-channel by an independent third-party organization to guarantee optimum performance. This solution is also backed by our lifetime Double Diamond warranty.
CAT6A Ethernet cable supports 10-Gigabit speeds over 100-meter LAN segments at lower costs compared to fiber cabling, making them the primary choice for new installs.
High Power over Ethernet
CAT6A can support the ever-increasing demand of Power over Ethernet (PoE), including 4PPoE (99 watts) without the risk of cable or circuit burns.
Wireless Networks
Current 802.11ac/ad access points can deliver speeds up to 6.7 Gbps, future standards are likely to support up 10-Gigabit. To really benefit from these higher bandwidth, CAT6A is recommended for horizontal cabling to WiFi access points.
UHD AV Distribution
CAT6A supports ultra-high-definition video-over-IP distribution, making this solution perfect for 4K 60 AV-over-IP, KVM-over-IP, and digital signage applications.
HDBaseT Connectivity
HDBaseT is a popular technology for point-to-point extensions of uncompressed full HD video, audio, Ethernet, power and control data over a single CAT5e/6/6A cable. Black Box features CAT6A cables delivering optimum performance for these 5-Play services.
Compliance
CAT6A is compatible with existing CAT5e and CAT6 installs. It is also compliant with the TIA/EIA-568-B.2-10 and ISO/IEC 11801 industry standards, ETL verified and UL approved.
Reduced Alien Crosstalk
CAT6A fully meets the specification for alien crosstalk reductions, means it is not affected by wire in nearby cables granting a reliable transmission.
Premium Performance
Black Box ensures high quality in its shielded and unshielded CAT6A components and regular testing by independent institutes. Their design ensures effortless installs and maximum conductivity for high-speed signal transmissions.
Great Choice
Select from shielded or unshielded models, cables with solid or stranded wires, CM, CMR, or LZ0H jackets in multiple colors, molded, snagless, slim and/or lockable connectors.
