The Atlas-X1 Cat 6A Component-Rated Shielded QuickPort Connector supports 10GBASE-T networks. The shielded connector provides superior alien crosstalk (AXT) suppression and protects critical data from potential EMI/RFI (electromagnetic interference/ radio frequency interference). The connector is part of a complete Atlas-X1 Cat 6A shielded system ideal for government, healthcare, manufacturing, transportation, gaming, and other environments where EMI/RFI and/or security may be a concern. 

• Independently tested and guaranteed to exceed all component, permanent link, and channel margins
• Patented Retention Force Technology (RFT) protects against tine damage and increases system longevity
• For Power over Ethernet, RFT maintains contact force between plug and connector, preventing arcing from intermittent disconnects
• Shielding provides EMI/RFI protection, signal isolation, and excellent alien crosstalk (AXT) suppression
• Unique design supports tool-free termination/re-termination and requires no specialized termination tool
• Short connector design supports a wider range of applications (e.g. shallow boxes, enclosures, bend radius, etc.)
• Terminates from 26 to 22-gauge solid or stranded conductors for use on various cable types
• Robust IDCs can withstand 20 re-termination cycles and connector contacts are tested for 750 plug-mating cycles to ensure system longevity
• Available in 13 ANSI/TIA-606-B compatible colors
• Connector supplied with interchangeable icons (voice, data, A/V, and blank, color coded to match the connector face) for easy identification and tracking of data, voice, or other functions
• Connector with internal shutter protects against dust and debris
• Solid metal body dissipates 53% more heat than traditional plastic, minimizing damage from excess heat in PoE applications
• Tine geometry prevents arcing damage where plug and connector make contact
