HB-DIGITAL 10 m Cat 7 installation cable, AWG23/1 solid, S/FTP, LSZH, Eca

Not a patch cord at all but a length of installation cable, and the only listing on this shelf that publishes a conductor gauge — AWG23/1, a solid core, in a halogen-reduced sheath with a fire class printed beside it.

Category
Cat 7 — stated in the title and the first bullet, with an operating frequency of up to 600 MHz and support for 10 Gbit/s Ethernet. PoE compatibility is named separately, to IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at
Conductor material
A copper mix — stated in the first bullet, which names the conductors as a copper compound rather than as pure copper. It is the only listing on this shelf to describe the metal as a mixture, and no proportion is given
Conductor construction
Solid — stated as AWG23/1 in the first bullet, where the figure after the stroke is the conductor count per core. It is the only conductor construction published on this shelf
Shielding code
S/FTP — stated in the first bullet as an overall screen with foil around each pair
Length
10 m — stated in the title. The cable is sold as a simplex run rather than as a made-up cord
Sheath material
LSZH — stated in the fourth bullet as a halogen-reduced outer sheath with reduced smoke and gas emission in a fire, and given a construction-products class of Eca
Boot type
Not published on the listing — there are no plugs on this cable and therefore no boots. The fifth bullet names what the ends are meant to meet instead: punch-down terminals, keystone modules, patch panels and network outlets
Connector plating
Not published on the listing — nothing is fitted to either end. Whatever plating the link ends up with comes from the modules or plugs an installer terminates it into

  • The only listing on this shelf that publishes a conductor gauge, and it publishes the construction with it
  • Names a sheath material and a fire class, which nothing else here does
  • It is not a patch cord: nothing is fitted to either end, and the buyer supplies the termination

Best for: A fixed run being pulled through a wall or a trunking and terminated into keystone modules or a panel at both ends.

On the listing

A 10 m Cat 7 run in orange, described as installation cable with AWG23/1 conductors of a copper compound, an S/FTP overall screen and foil around each pair; support stated for 10 Gbit/s Ethernet at an operating frequency up to 600 MHz; PoE compatibility named to IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at for access points, IP cameras and VoIP telephones; a halogen-reduced LSZH outer sheath with reduced smoke and gas in a fire, given the construction class Eca; and a simplex cable offered for walls, floors, trunking and cabinets, said to suit punch-down terminals, keystone modules, patch panels and network outlets.

AWG23/1, which is the whole story

The figure after the stroke is the one that decides everything downstream. AWG23/1 is one conductor per core — a solid wire — at gauge 23. Every other listing on this shelf leaves both halves unwritten, and this is the only one of the seven that names a gauge at all.

Solid conductors belong in a fixed run. They are punched down into insulation-displacement contacts, in a keystone module or on a panel, where the blades straddle a wire that does not move again. They are the wrong thing at the end of a lead that gets coiled, dragged out from behind a desk and plugged in twice a week, because a single core work-hardens where it flexes. That is not a criticism of this cable; it is a description of the job it is sold for, in the maker’s own fifth bullet.

A copper mix, named as a mix

The first bullet calls the conductors a copper compound rather than copper. That wording is unusual and it is worth reading exactly: it is neither the claim of pure copper that three cords on this shelf make, nor the copper-clad aluminium that one of them admits to. What proportion of what, the listing does not say, and this page has no way to find out.

A sheath with a class printed on it

LSZH and Eca are the second thing that separates this product from the six cords beside it. The sheath material is named, and a reaction-to-fire class is printed with it. Four of the other listings on this shelf never name a sheath material at all, and none of them prints a class of any kind. Whether a particular class is required somewhere is a matter for local rules and for the person responsible for the installation.

Before ordering

Buy this expecting to terminate it. Nothing is fitted to either end, and what goes on those ends has to accept AWG23 solid conductors — which is a line printed on the packet of a keystone module or a plug, and never on its photograph. If you were looking for a cord to run from a switch to a machine, this is not it, and one of the six made-up cords on this shelf is.
