Category 5 SFTP 100 Ohm Modular Cords

Description

HCS DataLink 100 modular cord series consists of 100 Ohm impedance, 4-pair overall foil + braid (SFTP) shielded terminated cords for work area, jumper and patching in local area networks (LANs).
HCS DataLink 100 modular cords feature a unique termination method, combining strength relief injection molding into the RJ-45 plug with a removable boot. This design provides the advantages of both molded and non-molded terminations. 
The HCS DataLink 100 modular cords have been designed to provide mated performance that exceeds the TIA/EIA-568-A Category 5 requirements in shielded cabling systems where improved noise immunity is required.
The HCS DataLink 100 modular cords can be used with either T568A or T568B modular jacks. 
The standard color is Grey RAL 7032, but they are available in 10 different jacket colors and supplied with boots that match the color of the cord.

Benefits & Features
  • Unique double termination method - providing the advantages of both molded and non-molded terminations.
  • Exceptional material properties and cable design - providing the highest degree of reliability.
  • High Return Loss and NEXT Loss values - providing low BER (Bit-Error-Rate) in all applications. 
  • Extremely high pair-balance - providing excellent EMC (Electro Magnetic Compatibility), minimizing radiation and maximizing noise immunity.
  • End-to-end double-shield continuity - Providing a low transfer impedance, a high coupling-attenuation and improved EMC.
  • Revolutionary pair lay scheme - providing an extremely low delay skew. 
  • Smooth and limp jacket - proving comfortable cord handling.
  • Unique DoubleSafe™ Quality Assurance Program  providing lowest rejection rate available.
