D-CONNECT Category 6 cable is a high-performance, unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable designed to support Gigabit Ethernet and other high-speed network applications. It exceeds ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 and ISO/IEC 11801 Class E performance standards, delivering superior electrical performance with minimal crosstalk and EMI. Constructed with a central cross separator, the cable ensures enhanced signal isolation and stability, making it ideal for demanding data transmission environments. Fully compliant with IEEE 802.3 standards, including PoE, PoE+, and PoE++, D-CONNECT Cat 6 cable is also backward compatible with Cat 5 and 5e systems, offering versatile and future-ready network infrastructure.
