Cat6 cables are designed for operating frequencies of up to 250 MHz. They are used for signal transmission at high data rates (1 Gbps). Due to the high signal frequencies, careful handling is required during installation and assembly, especially at the connection points of the wires. The individual pairs of wires in Cat6 cables are twisted with varying tightness, which reduces susceptibility to interference even more than in Cat5e. Applications for Cat6 cables include voice and data transmission as well as multimedia and ATM networks. Even more powerful are cables according to Cat6e (500 MHz) and Cat6a (625 MHz). A significant advantage of slim patch cables is their use in wiring racks and 48-port switches. Their extremely thin design and great flexibility help prevent cable clutter and maintain organization. A Wirewin Cat6 Slim Tough cable features a flexible and wide connector protection as well as a robust nylon jacket. They are the optimal solution for connecting IP phones to your network. Thanks to the nylon jacket, the cables can be easily untangled, making them well-suited for mobile applications, such as connecting a laptop or as a travel companion.
