Nitrotel EngineerPro® Augmented Cat6 Modular Plug allow customers to meet performance requirements in ISO 11801 Class EA, IEEE 802.3an-2006 and ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6A standards to support transmission at speeds up to and including 10GBASE-T. This modular plug is designed to terminate directly to CAT6a and CAT6 large diameter solid conductor cabling. Typical modular plugs are designed for use on patch cable assemblies and therefore are designed to terminate to stranded conductors of wire sizes from AWG 24 through AWG 28. However, in many direct connect, or consolidation point applications where link lengths exceed 10 Meters, a horizontal cable type is specified. Horizontal cable is normally made with solid conductor copper wire in the diameter range of AWG 23 through AWG 24. This larger copper size translates into larger conductor diameters which make terminating to a traditional modular plug problematic. EngineerPro® cat6A Modular Plug design accommodates this large diameter cabling in the form factor of a standard RJ45 plug.
