specifications
Category 6A/Class E
A
, S/FTP keyed patch cords shall be constructed
of 26 AWG shielded twisted pair stranded copper cable with keyed modular plug
on one end and a non-keyed modular plug on the other end. Keyed modular
plugs shall be mechanically keyed with color-specific positive and negative
keying features to prevent unintentional mating with unlike keyed or non-keyed
jack modules. Copper conductors in patch cable shall be twisted in pairs and
separated by a quadrant separator. All four pairs shall be surrounded by a foil
shield and flame retardant jacket. Patch cord cable shall be offered in multiple
colored S/FTP cable for design flexibility with a black strain relief boot on each
modular plug. All patch cords shall be compatible with both T568A and T568B
wiring schemes. The TX6A
