Laird 10GX Series Category 6A 10 Gigabit Ethernet cables deliver the all-important backbone of your Video Over IP cable infrastructure in ST-2022, HDBaseT, HDBitT, DANTE, AES67 and similar environments. These cables meet stringent HD video and Digital Audio IP packetization bandwidth needs. Built Laird tough with Belden 4-pair, 23 AWG F/UTP copper 10GX cable and Neutrik etherCON RJ45 Connectors. Belden 10GX cable exceeds the ANSI/TIA-568-B.2-10 Category 6A standard and is ready for your high speed Local Area Networks (LANs), Server Farms, Storage Area Networks (SANs) and any other heavy data traffic environment. In addition to its super high bandwidth advantages, the Laird 10GX saves you up to 25% on space reducing the Rats Nest in your Data Center with its small diameter (0.295 inches!), lightweight and superior flexibility helping you make easy connections in high density applications. Plus, its reduced cross-talk helps protect your data in harsh EMI environments. The Laird 10GX cable is the perfect companion for Cat6a HDBaseT Ethernet Convertors and Extenders as well as being backwards compatible to perform perfectly with existing Cat6/5E components. Rest easy knowing your signal is always streaming with a Laird CAT6A high speed Ethernet cable.
10G Ethernet Max Distance
Laird certifies this Cat6a cable to 328 ft (100 m) for 10G Ethernet and 500 ft (152 m) for 1G Ethernet, validated through Bit Error Rate (BER) testing. IEEE 802.3 specifies a maximum of 328 ft (100 m) for Cat6a Ethernet applications; exceeding this threshold risks signal degradation and link failure. Supported signal types-including Ethernet, PoE, and AV-over-IP-each carry distinct distance limitations. Conductor gauge (AWG) affects signal attenuation, power delivery, and usable distance-higher AWG conductors may reduce maximum range. Always consult your application's specifications prior to deployment.
Laird Tech Note: Compliant with all PoE Specs, when installed according to TIA guidelines.
