VCE (Gen 1) 25 PACK Cat7 Shielded RJ45 Connector Cat6A Modular Plug Blue

Product Information

Cat7 cables were originally developed for use in larger-scale industrial Ethernet networks - and, as such, they’re designed not only to provide high speeds and bandwidth capabilities, but also to withstand a broad range of environmental and mechanical hazards. This lack of approval and the use of the alternative connector means that networking hardware developers have focused their support for 10Gb Ethernet for the RJ-45 connector, leaving the GG45 and TERA connection options underdeveloped. One of the most important reasons is that the Cat7 specification is a proprietary standard developed by a group of companies.

In this guide, we’ll look at some of the key features and applications of Cat 7 cable, and how it builds on the previous capabilities of the preceding Cat5 and Cat6 Ethernet standards.Cat7 cables are also compatible with the TERA connector , although that has also seen very little use in the industry. That said, whether you’re building a new network or upgrading an older one, leave Cat7 well enough alone. Cat 8 is a true evolution of Cat 6A and the perfect upgrade path for anyone looking to expand their network’s capabilities.

Where you see Ethernet cable labelled as either Cat7(a) STP or FTP, these acronyms stand for Shielded Twisted Pair or Foiled Twisted Pair respectively, and they essentially mean the same thing. With its one-step termination process, this connector offers outstanding shielding performance and reduces external interferences.

Its stable and fast network transmission performance meets the high network speed requirements of video games, online offices, teleconferences, data rooms, etc. If in doubt, do a field test by taking any ethernet cable you happen to own and plugging it in the TV/router.

It is rated to support frequencies up to 2,000 MHz over up to 30 meters, giving it the official support for up to 40 Gbps over that shorter cable run.

All I need is a 10m Ethernet cable that will connect a Sony TV type KDL - 32WD752 to a Plusnet router which I think is the latest type.
