A network technician is installing a high-density 10GBASE-T Ethernet link between two core distribution switches located 75 meters (246 feet) apart in an industrial facility. The cable path must pass directly alongside heavy electrical machinery and high-voltage power conduits. Which cable category and physical construction must be specified to maintain 10 Gbps throughput across this distance while mitigating potential data corruption from electromagnetic interference?

Cevap
Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) Category 6a terminated with RJ45 connectors
Category 6a cabling is engineered to support 10GBASE-T Ethernet speeds up to a maximum distance of 100 meters (328 feet). Additionally, selecting Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) foil/braided shielding protects signal integrity against external electromagnetic interference (EMI) induced by industrial power conduits and heavy machinery running parallel to the cable path.
