TERA Category 8.2 Outlets

Originally designed as the interface for category 7A/class FA that has long been ahead of its time as the highest-performing twisted-pair copper cabling system available, Siemon’s innovative TERA outlet has been newly characterized to support Category 8.2. When installed as part of a TERA 8.2 solution, these outlets deliver transmission performance up to 2 GHz to support two-connector, 30-meter channels in high-speed 25 Gigabit (25GBASE-T) and 40 Gigabit (40GBASE-T) applications for switch-to-server connections in the data center. The TERA outlets are easily installed in Siemon’s TERA-MAX® patch panels. The TERA outlet is backwards compatible with Category 7A/Class FA cabling systems supporting full 100 meter, 4 connector channel implementations.
