DataLink 500A Category 6A S/FTP 100 Ohm Outdoor LAN Cables
Description
HCS DataLink 500A outdoor cable series consists of 100 Ohm impedance, 4-pair S/FTP cables jacketed with heavy-duty, black,UV-resistant PE compound for horizontal outdoor installations in local area networks (LANs). All cables fully conform to and provide a substantial margin above all Category 6A requirements of ANSI/TIA-568.2-D and IEC 61156-5. All cables fully support all IEEE 802.3 PoE applications including Type 1, 2, 3 & 4, CISCO UPoE & UPoE+ and HDBase-T PoH.
