About this deal

Cat6a shielded twisted pair cable has a shield in cables to prevent electromagnetic interference (EMI) or radio-frequency interference (RFI) from affecting the performance of the cable. It also prevents cable signals from interfering with surrounding cables and equipment. Properly installed Cat6a shielded cables automatically curb EMI and crosstalk, helping to ensure data integrity and high-speed performance. The Cat6a shielded cables must be grounded to work. For those who would like to understand more about RJ45 plugs and why there can be such a great deal of confusion surrounding them, please read What is an RJ45 Connector?

Our kenable Cat6 FTP outdoor cable is designed with FULL COPPER 23AWG twisted pairs and is Foil Shielded to ensure any interference is kept under control it also has a drain wire so can be earthed! Our cat 6 FTP cables also have a divider to separate the twisted pairs reducing cross talk. Our older pass through crimp and termination tool (V1) is not compatible with these Cat6/6A Shielded Pass Through RJ45 Connectors. The strain latch presser bar on that tool will crush the rear of your shielded plug. Grab your RJ45 crimp and termination tool. Place the plug into the tool (it will only go one way). Continue placing pressure on the cable and plug by pushing lightly into the tool cavity. At the same time, press the lever downward in one smooth motion. This single step does one thing only: We recommend to use faceplates with full copper cables as oppose to crimping them for our plates see the QS numbers below:

Applications

You can use either T568A or T568B for your sequence. One is not better than the other. Just be sure to use the same sequence at both ends of the cable unless you want to create a cross-over cable. There it is. Pretty easy to do, once you have a couple goes at it. Keep in mind that terminating an RJ45 plug is part science and part art. If you are new to this, practice on scrap cable and buy enough plugs just in case you make bad terminations. Trust me, I have made my fair share of bad terminations over the years. Practice makes perfect. Just bought yourself a nice outdoor surveillance camera or Wi-Fi Access Point? You have to hook that thing up somehow, and the only way is to attach a RJ45 plug to the end of an Ethernet cable. But...how? There is a lot of confusion and misinformation out there regarding the termination of shielded bulk Ethernet cable to shielded plugs. Horror stories abound about how difficult it is. Actually, it is not that difficult once you know how to do it and what to buy. Welcome to the right path! Let’s take a dive into this process of how to terminate Cat6 cables, where I will show you how to do it correctly. In homes or small businesses, unshielded Cat6a cables usually work fine unless your home or office sits near power lines or is stuffed with appliances. Typically, there isn't too much interference around a home or small business environment to require shielded Ethernet cables. In more complicated environments for larger businesses, such as those with a lot of heavy machinery, elevators, and fluorescent lights that may generate more intense EMI, it's advisable to use shielded Cat6a cables, which won't reduce speed and data transmission quality. Generators, air conditioners, and printers can also cause EMI. Therefore, shielded twisted pair cables that fit those complex environments are normally regarded as an excellent choice for industrial environments and healthcare facilities.

Once you have terminated both ends of your cable run, it is time for testing. There are a number of tools to accomplish this, and the easier and more informative the test is, the more expensive it will be. Take a look at this blog for tips on dealing with issues: Basic Network Cable Troubleshooting: What Did I Do Wrong? Ethernet crossover cable on the other hand is used for connecting two types of the same device together e.g. two computers. When Do I Need Cat6 Plenum Cable? A Cat6 patch lead or cable, also known as a straight-through cable, is used for connecting devices of different types, like a computer to a switch or hub.

fits and has been performance tested with the entire line of trueCABLE shielded Cat6 and Cat6A Ethernet cable (even the big direct burial stuff) Using a flat head screwdriver tip, press the “wings” downward to get the crimp started. Place the plug into the ground tab crimp cavity at the rear of the termination tool. We will demonstrate this termination with trueCABLE Cat6A Shielded Riser Ethernet cable. This cable has been fitment and performance tested when using our Cat6/6A Shielded Pass Through Plug . All lined up in T568B sequence. Once lined up then flush cut. Keep the conductors lined up at all costs during this process.

Plenum cable is used in spaces generally reserved for HVAC areas, usually under raised floors or above suspended ceilings within buildings. It has special insulation giving it smokeless and low flame characteristics. You may already have decided that you need Category 6 Cable. Buying Cat6 cable means you will be able to receive up to 1 Gbps Ethernet transmission. Plus, Cat6 is essential for 1000 Base-T style networks. So far, so good.After starting the crimp with the screwdriver, place the plug into the crip cavity at the rear of the tool latch side down. Step 17: Cat 6 cable consists of four twisted pairs of copper wires that are tightly wound together to minimize signal interference. Each pair of wires is color-coded and insulated, and the pairs are also individually twisted to further reduce crosstalk. The cable typically has an RJ-45 connector at each end, which is the standard connector used for Ethernet connections. Advantages of Cat 6 Cable
