eXtreme CAT 6+ Shielded Patch Cords exceed all performance requirements for internal parameters up to 250 MHz. Shielded patch cords protect critical data from EMI (electromagnetic interference) and RFI (radio frequency interference). The patch cords are part of the Leviton shielded solution for use in healthcare, transportation, government, military, manufacturing, casinos and other environments where EMI/RFI may be a concern. Shielded solutions are Rockwell Automation Encompass™ approved. The CAT 6 shielded patch cord shall meet or exceed applicable electrical performance standards for all internal parameters up to 250 MHz. The patch cord shall be a 26-gauge FTP construction with stranded conductors to provide greater flex-life.
