Slim Specs

Safe, Low-Smoke LSZH Construction

This cable uses a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket. In the event of a fire, it produces minimal smoke and no corrosive halogen gases. This improves visibility for safe evacuation. It is a smart choice for offices, schools, and public buildings where safety compliance is a priority.

Certified 10GbE Performance

It supports 10GBase-T over a 500MHz bandwidth. The S/FTP shielding protects against electromagnetic interference (EMI). This ensures stable signal integrity even near power cables or in electrically noisy environments. It is ETL verified to ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standards.

High-Power PoE++ Ready

This cable supports IEEE 802.3bt (PoE++). It delivers up to 100W to power-hungry devices. Use it for Type 4 PoE devices like high-performance wireless access points, PTZ cameras, or digital signage. It eliminates the need for separate power adapters.

Snagless Boot with Strain Relief

The snagless molded boots protect the RJ-45 tab during installation. This prevents accidental damage when pulling the cable through cable management. Integrated strain reliefs reduce stress at the connector junction. This minimises the risk of internal wire breakage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this cable suitable for UK office ceilings?

A: Yes. The LSZH jacket produces low smoke, making it suitable for suspended ceilings and risers in UK commercial buildings.

Q: Does it support Multi-Gigabit speeds?

A: Yes. It is backward compatible with 1GbE and supports 2.5G and 5GBase-T standards, not just 10GbE.

Q: Is the connector shielding metal or plastic?

A: The input specifies “Connector shielding: Yes.” You should verify if this is a metal shield or the plastic boot for your specific interference requirements.

Q: Is this cable shielded?

A: Yes, it uses S/FTP (Shielded Foiled Twisted Pair) construction to minimise interference.
