ETHERLINE® CAT.6A Y FLEX FC
Ethernet cable; Flexible; Ethernet, ETHERNET/IP, EtherCAT; Cat.6A; SF/UTP; PVC; green
Benefits
- The "Fast Connect" design, including inner sheath and cross separator, significantly reduces the cable assembly time, by eliminating the time-consuming removal of the pair screening. It also provides undiminished screening of the core pairs.
- Additional protection against electromagnetic interference thanks to double overall screening made of aluminium-laminated foil and copper braided screening with a high degree of coverage (SF/UTP).
- UL certification according to technical data enables the product to be used on the North American market.
- Fast information exchange through Ethernet technology.
- Cat. 6A performance up to 10 Gbit/s.
- For transmission of analogue and digital signals in the frequency range up to 500 MHz.
- Available with robust PVC or halogen free FRNC outer sheath.
Applications
- Also suitable for EtherCAT and EtherNet/IP applications.
- The “FLEX” version with reduced conductor cross-section is suitable for applications with limited space.
- For flexible use.
- Can be used in dry, damp or wet environments.
- Suitable for many applications, depending on the sheath material.
