Opterna 4-pair shielded category 6 solid cables (SF/UTP) has been designed for indoor applications
and suitable for flawless 1G Ethernet networking, fully supporting the more demanding office and
industrial communications requirements including voice, data, VoIP, Video Conferencing, security, IP
based cameras and other demanding real-time applications.
The cable covers the category 6 requirements for shielded twisted pair cables of 100 Ω and is
characterized up to 250 MHz suitable for transmitting data over local area networks (LANs).
The cable’s 8 conductors (4-Pairs) are of solid bare copper with high density polyethylene (HDPE)
insulation and a PVC/LSZH jacket. Two insulated conductors are twisted together to form a pair and
the four pairs with its unique pair lay are laid up to form the basic cable unit.
The four pairs are separated with a cross web or “X” shape central spacer that add physical separation
between the four pairs and reduces crosstalk between pairs. All four pairs are wrapped with a polyester
backed aluminium foil shield and an outer braided shield which protects the twisted pairs from electromagnetic interferences
