- 35. 35 • Goal: help you promote Category 6A • Summary: Panduit recommends Cat 6A for new permanent installations – There are new applications where Category 6A is not required but recommend • Applications recommending Cat 6A – 10GBASE-T – Next generation PoE++ – Wireless access points – Category 8 shows life beyond Cat 6A Introduction
- 36. 36 Cat 6A Growth in Enterprise
- 37. 37 POE Enables More Applications Up to 100 Watts • 100 million POE capable switch ports have shipped • 100 watt standard in 2016 • 6A standard of choice
- 38. 38 What Makes Category 6A Special? Alien crosstalk Noise from external cables Not specified for Cat 5E or 6 10GBASE-T requires Cat 6A! Equipment cannot compensate for alien crosstalk! Cabling system must meet it by design!
- 39. 39 Power over Ethernet Roadmap Cat 5E and 6 work fine on PoE and PoE+ Limited on bundle size for PoE++ Cat 6A is recommended for PoE++ Cat 6A recommended for new standards with 49W+ of power Clue!
- 40. 40 PoE Standards for Cabling For cable: Key is temperature rise in bundles TIA TSB-184-A is in draft Temperature rise in bundle center < 15o Temperature rise can cause: Signal degradation Physical damage to cable
- 41. 41 Less Power Lost with Category 6A Category 6A cable is more efficient with PoE Category 6A cable uses (slightly) bigger wires Bigger copper wires = less resistance Resistance turns power into heat Less resistance = less heat = less power lost 27% more power is lost with Category 5e. Install Category 6A! Clue!
- 42. 42 No PoE Bundle Limits with Cat 6A Only Category 6A works!
- 43. 43 PoE Cable Bundle Size Guidelines 96 cable bundle Alternative 96 cables with 4 x 24 bundles * Guideline only goes up to 100 cable bundle ** Preliminary TIA Guideline
- 44. 44 Connectivity Concern with PoE • Arcing (spark) occurs when plug is removed – Does not occur when plug is inserted • Carbon buildup may prevent data transmission • Jack must be designed to handle

- 50. 50 Wireless Access – Increased Bandwidth and Growth • CAGR 14% until 2020 • NG BaseT • 6A standard of choice
- 51. 51 Port Growth by Technology
- 52. 52 Drive to 802.11ac (and Cat 6A…) • 802.11ac needs 10GBASE-T / Category 6A – Wave 1 (available now) = up to 1.3Gbps – Wave 2 = eventually up to 6.9Gbps – For reference, 802.11n only 450Mbps • 802.11ac is better than 802.11n – Longer battery life – More bandwidth = faster downloads – More density = more users – 802.11ac backwards compatible with 802.11n • Expect fast adoption of 802.11ac
- 53. 53 Recommended layout wireless access cells in commercial buildings 60’
- 54. 54 TSB 162-A Cabling Recommendations • Pre-cable using square grids • Max. 18.3x18.3m sq. cells • Dense environments – Smaller cell or – 2 AP in cell • 2 Category 6A to each WAP • Max link length = 80 m Lmax = R = 0.707 X Lmax = equipment cord length R = cell radius X = length of side of cell
- 55. 55 NGEABT = 2.5 and 5GBASE-T • Higher BW Ethernet for WAP • IEEE standard 802.3bz in development – 2.5G over legacy Cat5e/6 – 5G over legacy Cat6 – Recommend Cat6A for new Installations • Feasibility in progress – Alien crosstalk – Bandwidth • Auto-negotiation concern NGEABT imposes requirements in RED regions
