What is the latest trend in structured cabling in terms of technology and new category of cables?
We have a range of Cat 7-shielded cables with data transmission frequency of up to 1200 MHz. However, Cat 6a (10 Gigabit) shielded solution is the latest trend in the structured cabling industry. There is significant growth (approximately 30%) for Cat 6a shielded deployment for high bandwidth applications. Due to fast changing technology, the need and demand for high bandwidth applications is increasing very fast too. There is a significant growth for the Cat 6a (10 G Ethernet) solution especially for data centers, NOC, R&D labs, etc. As Cat 6a standards will mature, there is more likelihood of Cat 6a replacing the Cat 6 for the LAN to desktop. Due to better NEXT performance characteristics, shielded Cat 6a is gaining more popularity than unshielded Cat 6a solution. Shielded Cat 7 cables at 1200 MHz are the new upcoming solution in the cabling industry but it is still in its infancy. R&M offers full range of products for the shielded and unshielded solution.
