The growing need for 10Gb transmission over ethernet has seen a large increase in the deployment of Cat6A in recent years. In many cases networks are made up of a combination of Cat6 to the desktop and Cat6A to Wireless Access Points. However, Cat6A to the desktop is a must for networks where a stable 10Gb connection is required. Typically in media, for video editing etc, or for streaming applications. Or simply for when running multiple applications at once. As the demand placed on cabled and wireless networks continues to grow, Cat6A will soon overtake Cat6 the dominant standard.
CAT6A is available in shielded (F/UTP) or unshielded (UTP) versions. Shielded, while it has its advantages in environments with a high risk of electromagnetic interference, depends on the correct earthing of the cabinet. UTP cable, however, is generally more expensive that F/UTP. We will always be happy to recommend the best solution for every installation and explain why.
All Cat6A cabling provided by Datacat is tested with a cable-analyser to ensure it meets industry standards. As well as providing comprehensive test results, these results will be sent to the relevant manufacturer and a warranty certificate provided.
All commercial cabling must be installed to a minimum fire-rating depending on the install environment, in order to conform to health and safety standards. As a result, we at Datacat will take great care to check those requirements in advance to ensure your safety and compliance.
