Q:Why did all CAT 6 cable used to have a spine, and now is offered without
one?
A: All the CAT 6 cable products which includes UTP CAT 6 cable, FTP CAT
6 cable and SFTP CAT 6 cable used to have a spine to increase the separation
between pairs and also to maintain the pair geometry. This additional
separation improves NEXT performance and allows CAT 6 cable compliance
to be achieved. With advances in technology, manufacturers have found
other ways of meeting CAT 6 cable requirements. The bottom line is the
internal construction of the cable does not matter, so long as it meets
all the transmission and physical requirements of CAT 6 cable. The standard
does not dictate any particular method of cable construction.
If you want to get more information about the CAT 6 standard, please
buy and download the CAT 6 cable standard from Global Engineering Documents.
