Several factors have contributed to the migration to Cat6a twisted-pair copper cabling, including support for 10GbE networks, Power over Ethernet (PoE) adoption, and wireless access point (AP) applications. It is also recommended for new installations in education, healthcare, and other industries, supporting wireless systems that rely on 10Gbe and providing enhanced performance for PoE. Cat6a connections are becoming more popular as users demand increased bandwidth and performance.

Lux’s cat6a structured cabling channel solution consists of cat6a bulk and patch Ethernet cable, patch panels, and keystone jacks. An independent third-party organization tests each component of the solution in an end-to-end channel to ensure optimal performance. This solution is also covered by our Lux 25-year warranty.
