CCA 케이블 당신이 알고 있는 것

Cutting corners will be tempting when network infrastructure budgets are restricted. One way to do that is lowering the quality of ethernet cables, to purchase copper clad aluminum (CCA) cables.

Is the CCA cable a good replacement for the network cabling or not? Let’s find out what the CCA cable is first.

CCA 케이블은 구리 피복 알루미늄 와이어입니다. 그들은 구리로 코팅된 알루미늄 전도체를 포함합니다. Wikipedia의 설명: 구리 클래드 알루미늄 와이어(CCAW 또는 CCA)는 내부 알루미늄 코어와 외부 구리 클래딩으로 구성된 전기 전도체입니다.

So the cost of CCA cables must be lower than the pure copper cables. The standard of IEC(International Electrotechnical Commission) or CENELEC(European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization) does not permit to use the CCA cables in the network cabling. And for the CAT5e and CAT6 specifications, the must use copper conductors but CCA cables.

This material CCA will cause more packets of data lost because it has higher attenuation properties than pure copper cable. A lower tensile strength will also damage the data transmission. You have to worry about the breaking when pulling.

Therefore, you must read the specifications carefully when you purchase and use CCA cables.
