Description

HCS DataLink 250 S/FTP modular cord series consists of 100 Ohm impedance, 4-pair S/FTP terminated cords for work area, jumper and patching in local area networks (LANs) ETL Verified at the component level. HCS DataLink 250 S/FTP modular cords feature a unique termination method, combining strength relief injection molding into the RJ-45 plug with a removable boot. This design provides the advantages of both molded and non-molded terminations. HCS DataLink 250 S/FTP modular cords exceed all ANSI/TIA-568.2-D and ISO/IEC-11801 (2nd Edition) Category 6 requirements and are specially designed to be backward compatible with all Category 5 and Category 5e jacks. HCS DataLink 250 S/FTP modular cords can be used with either T568A or T568B modular jacks. The standard jacket color is Grey RAL 7035. 10 different jacket & boot colors are available upon request.

Application
HCS DataLink 250 S/FTP modular cords support all presently available and future LAN applications, including the following protocols:
☑ 1000BASE-TX Gigabit Ethernet Over Category 6 TIA/EIA-854 ☑ 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet ☑ ATM 155 ☑ TP-PMD ☑ 100BASE-T "Fast Ethernet" ☑ 100BASE-T2 ☑ 100BASE-T4 ☑ 100BASE-TX ☑ Token Ring 100 Mbp ☑ ATM 52 ☑ ATM 25 ☑ 10BASE-T Ethernet ☑ Token Ring 4 Mbps and 16 Mbps ☑ Broadband and Baseband Video ☑ ISDN Basic and Primary Access ☑ 1BASE-5 Starlan ☑ ISALAN ☑ ITU V.21 and X.11
Qualifications and Approvals
All HCS DataLink 250 S/FTP terminated cords are tested at the component level and officially ETL verified for full compliance with ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6.

Benefits & Features

→ Testing every cord prior to shipment - providing the highest degree of quality assurance. → Unique double termination method - providing the advantages of both molded and non-molded terminations. → Exceptional material properties and cable design - providing the highest degree of reliability. → High Return Loss and NEXT Loss values - providing low BER (Bit-Error-Rate) in all applications. → Individual foil + overall copper braid - providing excellent EMC (Electro Magnetic Compatibility), minimizing radiation and maximizing noise immunity. → Revolutionary pair lay scheme - providing an extremely low delay skew. → Smooth and limp jacket - proving comfortable cord handling. → Unique DoubleSafe™ Quality Assurance Program providing lowest rejection rate available.
