High-Speed 25G/40G Performance
This cable supports 25 Gigabit and 40 Gigabit Ethernet. The 2000MHz maximum frequency handles demanding bandwidth. It is ideal for high-density switches and servers. This ensures minimal latency for critical applications.
Superior Shielding for EMI Protection
The S/FTP (S-STP) construction shields each pair. This uses aluminium-mylar foil and tinned copper braid. It protects against electromagnetic interference. So, signal integrity remains stable in noisy environments.
Pure Copper Conductors for Reliability
It uses 26AWG pure bare copper wire. This offers low resistance and improved conductivity. Consistent performance is maintained across different temperatures. Therefore, you get minimal signal loss over the full 5m run.
LSZH Jacket for Safer Installations
The Low Smoke Zero Halogen jacket is flame-retardant. It emits low smoke and toxic fumes if exposed to extreme heat. This is suitable for confined spaces. For example, use it in offices, trains, or aircraft where safety standards are strict.
Durable Snagless Connectors
The gold-plated RJ45 connectors resist corrosion. The snagless boot protects the clip during installation. They are rated for over 750 mating cycles. This ensures a long service life for your network patch cord.
