May 15, 2018 — General Cable recently added the Category 6A cable to its line-up of GenSpeed outside plant category cables for outdoor applications. The new cable allows the extension of 10GB Ethernet networks to outdoor environments.

The Category 6A version also features a gel-filled construction to prevent moisture migration in outdoor applications. The UV- and abrasion-resistant jacket and wide temperature range makes it usable in extreme weather environments. Additionally, the cable can be paired with Panduit’s NetKey Category 6A UTP jack modules.
