GigaLAN® Category 6
 

Features and Applications

GigaLAN is the one of the highest performance unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable available today. The FlexWeb® construction isolates the pairs throughout the length of the cable, while providing an installer-friendly cable. The unique GigaLAN FlexWeb construction isolates the cable pairs and enhances the pair-to-pair balance for superior crosstalk, LCL and LCTL performance. Compact cable design meets the diameter requirements specified in TIA/EIA-568-B, providing flexibility and ease of installation. Electrical performance is ETL verified to TIA/EIA 568-B.2-1 Category 6.

5 year Warranty (available with MAC program)

Tested to 750 MHz – with verified stability

34% increase in power due to lower insertion loss characteristics at 100 MHz and greater than 50% at 250 MHz than Category 6

dB Minimum – Improvement in Near End Crosstalk vs. Category 6 NEXT

33 dB Minimum ACR @ 100 MHz and positive ACR to 460 MHz

Application – Proven support for Gigabit Ethernet / 1000BASE-T / IEEE 802.3ab, ATM up to 155 Mbps, IEEE 802.3af Power Over Ethernet for VoIP, 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet / 100BASE-T / IEEE 802.3, ANSI.X3.263 FDDI TP-PMD, Ethernet / 10BASE-T / IEEE 802.3, 4 & 16 Mbps Token Ring / IEEE 802.5, T1/E1, xDSL, ISDN, 550 MHz Broadband Video and standards under development such as ATM at 622 Mbps, 1.2, 2.4 and 4.8 Gbps

Enhanced Performance Parameters – All electrical characteristics proven to exceed TIA/EIA 568-B.2-1 and ISO/IEC 11801 Category 6 requirements: including NEXT and ELFEXT (Pair-to-Pair and Power Sum), Insertion Loss, Return Loss, and Delay Skew
