Questions buyers ask

Cat6 or Cat6A for a new office?
Cat6 supports 10GBASE-T up to about 55 m; Cat6A supports it to 100 m and has better alien-crosstalk margin. For new builds with long runs or future 10G upgrades, Cat6A is the safer choice.

Do you supply loaded or empty patch panels?
We supply loaded panels for fixed configurations and empty panels with keystone openings where the installer prefers to terminate on site. Specify the jack type and labeling scheme when ordering.
