PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Brand-Rex 10GPlus product set is a premium quality, high performance, future proof, cabling system. 10GPlus is classified
as an Augmented Category 6 and Class EA product set which is fully backward compatible to Category 6 (Class E) and Category 5e
(Class D) solutions.
It is a product set which is designed to be compliant with the new IEC Class EA and Augmented Category 6 standards, ready
for the new application from IEEE, 10GBASE-T. The cabling system is available in screened and unscreened solutions, however
screened products are recommended because they are more robust against against electromagnetic noise and have improved
alien crosstalk performance.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
The 10GPlus Shielded Tool-free Snap-in-
Jack is easy and quick to install, its compact
construction and multiple cable-entry
options make it the most flexible product
of its type available. It is smaller and
shorter than traditional products, allowing
it to fit more comfortably into confined
spaces. The jack also features an adjustable
management element allowing for a rear,
top or side-entry cable termination.
Designed for use in all structured cabling
environments including the general office and
data centres, the jack can be installed in patch
panels, wall outlets and floor box modules
to provide a robust and versatile solution.
The 10GPlus system is an Augmented
Category 6 and Class EA solution set that is
fully backwards compatible to Cat6 (Class E)

Shielded and Unshielded patch panels offer a
port density which delivers 48 terminations in a
single U height with true Category 6 component
performance using a patented contact pin array
design. The robust and easy to install patch panel
employs a conventional termination method that
affords the installer the maximum punch down
accessibility for wire termination.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
The Cat6Plus Shielded Tool-free Snap-in-Jack is
easy and quick to install, its compact construction
and multiple cable-entry options make it the
most flexible product of its type available. It is
smaller and shorter than traditional products,
allowing it to fit more comfortably into confined
spaces. The jack also features an adjustable
management element allowing for a rear, top or
side-entry cable termination.
Designed for use in all structured cabling
environments including the general office and
data centres, the jack can be installed in patch
panels, wall outlets and floor box modules to
provide a robust and versatile solution.
The Cat6Plus system is a Category 6 and Class E
Brand-Rex Copper Connectivity – Cat6Plus Tool-free Jack solution set that is fully backwards compatible
Category 6 Shielded Tool-free Snap-in-Jack to Cat5e (Class D) products. The jack is fully
compatible with all our UK and Continental style
faceplates and patch panel products
