Product Overview:

The Attac 3 Metre CAT6A Yellow Patch Lead is a high-specification Ethernet cable designed to meet the performance demands of modern 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) networks. With enhanced shielding and bandwidth capabilities, it provides exceptional signal integrity, reduced electromagnetic interference (EMI), and robust data transmission over short-to-medium distances. Whether you’re wiring a high-performance data centre, enterprise server room, or industrial networking setup, this shielded CAT6A patch lead ensures stable and consistent connectivity where it matters most.

Construction & Materials:

• Cable Length: 3 Metres
• Category: CAT6A (Augmented CAT6) – 500MHz bandwidth
• Conductors: 26AWG stranded copper (7×0.16mm)
• Insulation: High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) to reduce crosstalk and improve signal clarity
• Shielding: Foil Shielded Twisted Pair (F/UTP) for advanced noise suppression
• Connectors: 3U” gold-plated RJ45 plugs – corrosion-resistant and optimised for high-speed performance
• Outer Jacket: Flame-retardant PVC (UL-94-V2 rated), RoHS compliant
• Outer Diameter: Approx. 6.0 ± 0.2mm
• Colour: Yellow – ideal for structured cabling identification
• Rip Cord: Included for easy stripping during installation

Performance & Testing:

Each cable is 100% Fluke tested to ensure compliance with CAT6A standards. The patch lead supports full-duplex 10Gbps data transfer, offering low insertion loss (≤0.20dB), minimal return loss, and excellent NEXT (Near-End Crosstalk) suppression. This ensures clean, high-speed signal transmission for mission-critical systems.

Applications:

• 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) backbone links
• Data centres, patch panels, and server environments
• Enterprise networks and VoIP deployments
• Network switches, routers, and high-speed devices
• South African commercial, industrial, and professional networking installations
