LCS 2 THE CATEGORY 6A GUARANTEE GLOBAL SPECIALIST IN ELECTRICAL AND DIGITAL BUILDING INFRASTRUCTURES

Legrand is one of the global leaders in data communication networks in the development and design of the most advanced and highest performing structured cabling systems and solutions. They support multimedia networks, applications and emerging technologies.

from technical room to workstation Complete systems with a 20-year guarantee. The new LCS 2 cat. 6A (up to 500 MHz), cat. 6 (up to 250 MHz) and cat. 5e (up to 100 MHz) systems have been designed as coherent entities to optimise their performance. The systems are suitable for fibre optic cables as well as copper cables. WWW.LEGRAND.COM 1

category 6A the high performance solution performances: > 5dB / TIA or 3dB / ISO crosstalk > 3dB / ISO-TIA return loss. Guaranteed category 6A LINK The category 6A solution was designed to significantly exceed all category 6A application requirements in order to offer optimum performance in future applications. With Category 6A, Legrand guarantees installed channel performances exceeding all category 6A crosstalk requirements by 5dB /TIA* or 3dB /ISO* and exceeding all category 6A return loss requirements by 3dB /ISO-TIA* for configurations and installations conforming to standards, as well as on-site testing conducted by verified testing agents. * Depending on the degree of accuracy offered by the tester atthetestpoint.

category 6A performances The results of independent trials shown below allow comparison of worst performance obtained from a 100-metre channel with 4 connectors conforming with ISO standard category 6A specifications. The significant margins shown for each measured parameter demonstrate the technical superiority of the category 6A solution. These performance margins are consistent across the ISO/TIA standard tested frequency range and even beyond. Fréq. (MHz) Fréq.
