Category 6A

The Category 6A connectivity base on ISO/IEC 11801 & ANSI/TIA-568.2-D supports 10GBase-T. The transmission distance is 100m, and the bandwidth is up to 500MHz. For Keystone Jacks, the test transmission performance conditions are 2:

1. Permanent Link: as the below configuration, the test equipment includes two connectors and a patch cord.

2. Connecting hardware: ANSI/TIA and ISO/IEC ask for the requirements that apply to individual connectors and connector assemblies, which ensure the performance of connectors has minimal effects on cable performance. The requirements include return loss, insertion loss, NEXT loss, PSNEXT loss, FEXT loss, PSFEXT loss, TCL, etc.

So far, the Cat6A connectivities are applied widely in high-speed data centers, such as airports, hospitals, and some business buildings.
