Loops CAT6 SWA Steel Wire Armoured UTP Cable – Direct Burial Outdoor/Underground HDPE – 23 AWG Pure Copper Solid Core External Ethernet Data Reel/Drum – POE PE RJ45 LSZH

Product Information

Armoured CAT6A Cable Per Metre – Armoured ethernet cable / network cable constructed with a galvanised steel wire armour. The armour allows you to use this cable for outdoor and underground (direct burial) applications. This armour also helps protect against interference. Our kenable Cat7 S/FTP outdoor cable is designed with FULL COPPER 23AWG twisted pairs and each pair of cores has a foil shield as well as a foil braid inside the sheath to reduce interference and cross talk. This cable is capable of trasfering up to 10 gig at 600Mhz! Cat8 is designed for switch-to-switch communications in 25G and 40G networks. Residential and commercial projects outside the data center would be better using Cat6a cable. Not only is it less expensive, it's also easier and faster to install.

The Speed determines how much data (bandwidth) can be sent through the cable. Cat 7 cables have a maximum speed/bandwidth of 10 000 Mbit/s but Cat 6 carries a lower 1000Mbit/s and the cat 5e range of cables carry up to 1000Mbit/s. Cat6 and Cat6a cables are more expensive than Cat5e so it's important to know what you're getting for your money. For cable runs up to 50-ft, Cat6 is capable of 10 Gbps vs. 1 Gbps for Cat5e. For longer runs, Cat5e and Cat6 should give similar performance. Steel wire armour is only used on multicore versions of the cable. A multicore cable, as the name suggests, is one where there are a number of different cores. When cable has only one core, aluminium wire armour (AWA) is used instead of steel wire. This is because the aluminium is non-magnetic. A magnetic field is produced by the current in a single core cable. This would induce an electric current in the steel wire, which could cause overheating. This armoured cat 5e cable is cut to length so if you just simply put in the quantity how metres you need it will be cut to the exact length you require.

All good quality cables that have been tested and certified by the manufacturer for a certain bandwidth and data rate are essentially the same. Shielded Cat6 and Cat6a cable will give you better performance than unshielded, particularly when cables must be run in close proximity to power lines or large electrical equipment.

Armoured cable is used for submarine communications cable to protect against damage by fishing vessels and wildlife. Early cables carrying telegraph used iron wire armouring, but later switched to steel. The first of these was a cable across the English Channel laid by the Submarine Telegraph Company in 1851. [10] Many more telegraph, and later, telephone cables soon followed with multiple cores. Modern cables are fibre-optic cables rather than copper cores. The first transatlantic fibre-optic cable was TAT-8 in 1988. [11] See also [ edit ] SWA cable can be referred to more generally as mains cable, armoured cable, power cable and booklet armoured cable. The name power cable, however, applies to a wide range of cables including 6381Y, NYCY, NYY-J and 6491X Cable. In electrical power distribution, armoured cable usually means steel wire armoured cable ( SWA) which is a hard-wearing power cable designed for the supply of mains electricity. It is one of a number of armoured electrical cables – which include 11 kV Cable and 33 kV Cable – and is found in underground systems, power networks and cable ducting. [1] The PVC version of SWA cable, [5] described above, meets the requirements of both British Standard BS 5467 and International Electrotechnical Commission standard IEC 60502. [6] It is known as SWA BS 5467 Cable and it has a voltage rating of 600/1000 V. [7] If you are buying Ethernet cable for the first time, focus on these four features and you'll make a good decision. Other factors are worth considering in certain circumstances so if in doubt, read on.Plenum is the space above or below a room that provides a way for air to return to a building's HVAC system. A riser is a vertical shaft between floors for electrical wiring, water pipes, and voice or data cabling. In the event of a fire, it's critical that cabling in these areas does not promote the spread of smoke and toxic fumes. Armour: Steel wire armour provides mechanical protection, which means the cable can withstand higher stresses, be buried directly and used in external or underground projects. [4] The armouring is normally connected to earth and can sometimes be used as the circuit protective conductor ("earth wire") for the equipment supplied by cable. Our range of Cat7 Cables have a double shielding (S/FTP) to eliminate the chance of cross talk and interference from near by devices. These cables are FULL COPPER which is suitable for POE devices such as Access points WIFI Range extenders CCTV or networking switches that need to carry power via the Ethernet cable to a POE port.

Upgrading to Cat6 makes sense if the equipment on either end is capable of 10 Gbps. For example, core network connections between switches, routers or bridges would benefit from the higher bandwidth.Aluminium can also be used for armouring, and historically iron was used. Armouring is also applied to submarine communications cables. Christopher Shelton (2004). Electrical Installations. Nelson Thornes. pp.99–. ISBN 978-0-7487-7979-6.

Conductor: consists of plain stranded copper (cables are classified to indicate the degree of flexibility. Class 2 refers to rigid stranded copper conductors as stipulated by British Standard BS EN 60228:2005 [2]) There are two main factors to look at when comparing network cables. The first is the speed (bandwidth) and the other the frequency (MHz).Bedding: Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) bedding is used to provide a protective boundary between inner and outer layers of the cable.
