Category 6A - Modular Jacks

General Info
The Category 6A jack is a core component of the Category 6A solution and utilised at the outlet and within the patch panel. The key to delivering a high performing jack is to reduce the insertion loss and alien crosstalk that are prevalent at high frequencies associated with 10 Gigabit Ethernet. A high performance PCB within the jack, together with carbon cap to mitigate alien crosstalk, have produced a leading edge component necessary to deliver the high performance demanded. The Category 6A jack utilises punchdown terminations onto LSA-PLUS® contacts to ensure swift installation.
