Siemon Z-MAX Shielded Modules
The Siemon CAT6A Modules provide the foundational hardware for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T) infrastructure in modern data centers and enterprise networks. These components utilize a hybrid design to support both flat and angled mounting orientations. This versatility simplifies inventory management for network installers. The internal architecture minimizes alien crosstalk by isolating individual pairs within a die-cast zinc housing. Consequently, the hardware exceeds all TIA and ISO/IEC requirements for Category 6A performance. The shielding provides 360-degree protection against electromagnetic interference. Therefore, these units maintain signal integrity in high-density environments near power cables or wireless equipment.
