Highest Protection Against Alien Crosstalk in a UTP Cable
10 MTP unshielded twisted pair (UTP) design provides industry-leading protection
from external cable noise sources, also known as alien crosstalk. Guaranteed +8
dB over TIA 568-C.2 Standard for both PSANEXT & PSAACRF.
Mosaic Crossblock™
Mosaic Crossblock is a thin metallic tape of segmented sections separated by
an insulating layer. Since there is no metal-to-metal contact, there is no path for
current to flow longitudinally, and thus, no need for grounding.
F E AT U R I N G
technology to support PoE applications
Proven MTP™ Technology
With over five years of successful installations,
Mosaic Crossblock and the MTP design have
proven reliable in the field.
Round Cable Profile for Easy Tray Cable Layout
The Internal Separator optimizes internal pair
geometry to yield superior electrical performance
and maintain flexibility. This unique cross-web
stabilizes each pair to create a smaller, round
cable profile.
