Aps Cat 7A Cable FTP
by APC
APS Cat 7A cable (FTP) is a high-performance networking cable designed to meet the requirements of advanced data transmission systems. It belongs to the Category 7A (Cat 7A) standard, which is the highest category for Ethernet cables commonly used in local area networks (LANs) and data center environments.
- Construction: APS Cat 7A cable is constructed with four individually shielded twisted pairs (FTP - Foiled Twisted Pair). Each pair consists of two insulated copper conductors twisted together to minimize crosstalk and electromagnetic interference (EMI). The overall cable is further protected with an overall foil shield, which enhances its performance in high-noise environments.
- Bandwidth and Speed: Cat 7A cables are designed to support bandwidths of up to 1,000 MHz, which is significantly higher than lower-category cables like Cat 6 or Cat 6a. This increased bandwidth allows for higher data transfer rates and supports transmission speeds of up to 10 Gigabits per second (10 Gbps) over distances of up to 100 meters.
- Shielding: The APS Cat 7A cable features individual shielding for each twisted pair, which reduces crosstalk and minimizes interference between the pairs. Additionally, the overall foil shield provides excellent protection against external EMI and ensures reliable data transmission even in electrically noisy environments.
- Backward Compatibility: APS Cat 7A cables are backward compatible with lower-category cables such as Cat 6, Cat 6a, and Cat 5e. This means that you can use a Cat 7A cable in an environment where lower-category cables are already installed, and it will work seamlessly.
- Applications: APS Cat 7A cables are suitable for various applications that require high-speed and reliable data transmission. They are commonly used in data centers, server rooms, enterprise networks, and environments where high bandwidth and low latency are critical, such as video streaming, gaming, and multimedia applications.

Aps Cat 7A Cable FTP
APS Cat 7A cable (FTP) is a high-performance network cable designed for Ethernet applications that require fast and reliable data transmission. It belongs to the Category 7A (Cat 7A) standard, which is an enhanced version of the Cat 7 standard.
The "A" in Cat 7A stands for "Augmented," indicating that it provides improved performance compared to Cat 7 cables. Cat 7A cables are designed to support even higher frequencies and bandwidths, making them suitable for demanding applications such as data centers, high-speed LANs, and other professional networking environments.
The "FTP" designation stands for "Foiled Twisted Pair." It refers to the cable's construction, which consists of four individually shielded twisted pairs. Each pair of wires is wrapped with a metal foil shielding to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk between the pairs. The overall cable is then wrapped in an additional outer shield for further protection.
Key features and characteristics of APS Cat 7A (FTP) cable:
-
Performance: APS Cat 7A (FTP) cable supports transmission frequencies of up to 1000 MHz, providing a higher bandwidth compared to previous cable categories. This increased bandwidth allows for faster data transfer rates and better signal integrity.
-
Shielding: The individual shielding for each pair and the overall outer shield provide excellent protection against EMI and crosstalk. This shielding helps maintain signal quality and reduces the risk of data loss or corruption.
-
Backward compatibility: While Cat 7A is designed to support higher frequencies, it is also compatible with lower category cables such as Cat 6 and Cat 6A. This ensures compatibility with existing network infrastructure and devices.
-
Construction: APS Cat 7A (FTP) cables typically have a thicker and more robust construction compared to lower category cables. This helps minimize signal degradation and provides added durability.
-
Connectors: APS Cat 7A (FTP) cables often use shielded connectors, such as RJ45 connectors with additional shielding elements. These connectors ensure proper grounding and maintain the cable's overall shielding effectiveness.
