BELDEN 7815A 24 AWG CAT6 FTP
Belden 7815A is a high-performance Category 6 (Cat 6) cable featuring F/UTP (Foil over Unshielded Twisted Pairs) construction. Designed for environments where electromagnetic interference (EMI) is a concern, it utilizes an overall foil shield to protect data integrity, making it superior to standard UTP cables in noisy industrial or commercial settings.
Product Description
7815A is an excellent choice for installations where high-speed data transmission must coexist with electrical noise, such as near power lines, motors, or heavy machinery. By adding an overall foil shield, it effectively blocks high-frequency interference that can cause data errors or dropped packets in standard unshielded network cables.
Key Technical Specifications
Conductor Construction: 4 pairs of 24 AWG solid bare copper conductors.
Shielding Architecture:
Overall Foil Shield: A Beldfoil® aluminum/polyester foil shield covers all four pairs, providing 100% coverage against high-frequency electromagnetic interference (EMI).
Drain Wire: Includes a tinned copper drain wire to ensure consistent ground contact and simplify termination to shielded connectors.
Internal Geometry: Like most high-quality Cat 6 cables, it utilizes a central spline to keep the twisted pairs separated, which minimizes crosstalk and maintains the cable's high-frequency performance (rated up to 250 MHz).
Jacket: Features a durable, flame-retardant PVC jacket, suitable for general-purpose building and horizontal cabling installations.
Primary Applications
Noisy Environments: Ideal for commercial and industrial office areas where high-voltage lighting or electronic machinery might induce interference on standard UTP cables.
High-Speed Networking: Fully supports 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet) and provides the necessary shielding to maintain stability in dense cabling environments where alien crosstalk (AXT) is a factor.
Secure Installations: The addition of a shield can also provide minor protection against signal emanation, often preferred in environments where network security and data integrity are higher priorities.
