| Revew | Excel Cat6A F/FTP Patch Lead 1m VioletThe Excel 100-242 is a Category 6A patch lead, 1m long, in violet, from Excel, the structured cabling range of UK-based Mayflex. It is specified to 500MHz and suits 10 Gigabit 10GBase-T networks and PoE++ power delivery. The F/FTP construction gives each of the four twisted pairs its own foil screen inside a low smoke, zero halogen (LSOH) outer sheath. Both ends carry shielded RJ45 plugs with slim colour-matched moulded boots that fit densely populated switches and patch panels. 
Key features- Cat6A performance to 500MHz - Designed to current ISO and TIA standards for Class EA performance, ready for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBase-T) in racks and at the desk.
- F/FTP screening on every pair - An aluminium/polyester foil tape screens each pair individually, and both ends use shielded RJ45 plugs to reduce interference and crosstalk between adjacent leads.
- Slim boot for high density - The blade style moulded strain relief boot with clip protector is narrow enough for closely spaced switch and panel ports, and its colour makes the circuit easy to identify.
- PoE++ ready - Suitable for networks that power cameras, access points and IP phones over PoE++.
- LSOH sheath - Low smoke, zero halogen, flame retardant sheath tested to IEC 60332-1-2 and IEC 61034-2, suitable for buildings and server rooms.
