The securityNET Category 6A F/FTP installation twisted-pair cable is a four-pair data transmission cable designed for indoor telecommunications and structured cabling installations. It is intended for connecting network devices such as computers, routers, switches, and IP CCTV cameras.
Double shielding, consisting of an individual foil shield around each pair and an overall foil screen, effectively reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. Solid copper conductors ensure stable data transmission and compliance with Category 6A requirements, including Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications. The cable is commonly used in LAN networks and IP surveillance systems.
The cable complies with the requirements of the ISO/IEC 11801, EN 50173, and EIA/TIA 568-C.2 standards.
Application
Cables designed for indoor installations are engineered to operate in stable environmental conditions typical of residential, office, and infrastructure buildings. Their construction, based on conductors made of 100% pure solid copper, ensures stable and consistent transmission performance along the entire cable length. The use of solid copper minimizes signal loss and supports compliance with the requirements of ICT systems. These cables are fully compatible with solutions used in structured cabling systems.
Category
Category 6A, corresponding to Class EA, is a structured cabling standard designed for data transmission speeds of up to 10 Gb/s (10GBASE-T). According to the standard, it operates at frequencies of up to 500 MHz, ensuring a high margin of transmission performance and stable operation in modern high-bandwidth networks.
Category 6A cabling is widely used in LAN networks, data centers, and IP surveillance systems, enabling reliable connections between devices such as switches, routers, servers, and IP cameras. In accordance with structured cabling standards, the maximum permanent link length should not exceed 90 meters, assuming the use of patch cords up to 5 meters long on both ends of the channel.
Shielding
F/FTP twisted pair cable features double shielding: an overall foil shield surrounding the entire cable and individual foil shields for each wire pair. This design provides very high resistance to electromagnetic interference and effectively reduces internal crosstalk.
The cable is designed for installations in environments with high levels of EMI, such as data centers, technical rooms, or routes running in close proximity to power installations. It requires consistent grounding of the shields and maintaining shielding continuity throughout the entire transmission path. It is well suited for installations with high demands for stability and transmission performance.
Sheath
The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath used in twisted pair cables is designed to provide enhanced fire safety. This material contains no halogens and, when exposed to high temperatures, emits minimal smoke without producing aggressive corrosive gases.
LSZH-sheathed cables are intended for indoor installations in environments with elevated safety requirements, such as public buildings, offices, data centers, and evacuation routes. Compared to PVC, the sheath is generally less flexible, but it provides better protection for people, infrastructure, and equipment in emergency situations.
CPR class
B2ca-class cables are characterized by a very limited contribution to fire development. This classification is based on test results in accordance with EN 50399 and EN 60332-1-2 standards, covering the assessment of heat release, fire growth rate, flame spread, and cable behavior under fire conditions.
The full class designation includes additional parameters: smoke production (s1, s2, s3), flaming droplets (d0, d1, d2), and the acidity of combustion gases (a1, a2, a3). B2ca cables are subject to the AVCP 1+ system for assessment and verification of constancy of performance, which requires production facility audits and periodic testing by a notified body.
Cables of this class are used in facilities with the highest fire safety requirements, such as hospitals, high-rise buildings, evacuation routes, and public buildings with high occupant density. In many EU countries, the B2ca class is required wherever evacuation is difficult or maximum protection against fire spread is necessary.
PoE
The PoE++ Type 4 standard, compliant with IEEE 802.3bt, enables power delivery to network devices with up to 90 W while simultaneously transmitting data. Power is supplied using all four wire pairs (4PPoE), allowing support for high-power devices without additional power sources. The maximum transmission channel length is up to 100 meters.
PoE++ Type 4 is used to power advanced Wi-Fi access points, high-power CCTV cameras including PTZ and heated models, access control systems, information kiosks, multimedia terminals, Video VoIP devices, and other active equipment requiring approximately 71–90 W of power, depending on the power class.
Color
A color used in higher-category cabling where rapid identification of transmission paths is essential. Its vivid appearance makes it easier to distinguish cables in routes and telecommunications cabinets, reducing the risk of service errors. It is ideal for professional installations, data centers, and high-density cabling environments.
