Category 6A

Category 6A is a standard for high-performance Ethernet cables used in wired computer networks. It supports data transmission speeds up to 10 gigabits per second over distances up to 100 meters, making it suitable for demanding applications like large business networks and data centers. The "6A" stands for "Augmented 6," signifying an enhanced version of Category 6 cables, with better shielding to reduce interference and improve reliability. This standard ensures faster, more stable network connections, especially in environments with many electronic devices operating simultaneously.
