CAT 6 GIGA BIX CROSS-CONNECT WIRE

GIGA BIX CROSS-CONNECT WIRE

Use this cross-connect wire between two BIX or Giga BIX cross-connect fields. The Giga BIX cross-connect wire exceeds performance in the proposed Cat6 cabling standard, providing additional margin to support gigabit applications.

GigaBIX Cross-Connect Wire is intended for use between GigaBIX cross-connect fields in aTelecommunications room or at a main distribution frame. Using GigaBIX Cross-Connect Wire allows for very flexible and cost-effective installations.

The cut-to-length jumper eliminates need for slack management and guarantees permanent installation aesthetics.  The GigaBIX Cross-Connect Wire offers transmission performance that goes beyond Category 6 when installed as part of aBelden IBDN 4800LX System to provide additional margin to support gigabit applications.
