What is the difference between Cat6 and Cat6a cabling?

Cat6 supports Gigabit Ethernet with bandwidth up to 250 MHz. Cat6a supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet with bandwidth up to 500 MHz and improved shielding, making it suitable for high performance networks.

Should businesses install Cat6 or Cat6a?

Cat6 is suitable for most office networks. Cat6a provides higher bandwidth and supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet, making it a more future-proof option for organisations installing new network infrastructure.

How long does Cat6 or Cat6a installation take?

Installation times depend on the number of network outlets and building layout. Smaller office installations may take a few days, while larger commercial installations may take longer depending on project complexity.
