In order to solve the dilemmas of Near-End Crosstalk, simple termination and overall performance, OCC released a new Category 6A field terminable plug. This simple-to-terminate plug has been designed to terminate without any specialized tooling, through a snap-on connector housing and guided termination module.   ![describe the image](https://www.accu-tech.com/hs-fs/file-405544055-png/images/occ1.png?width=300&height=214&name=occ1.png)   These new Cat6A field terminable plugs were designed to support the high performance requirements of 10 gigabit networks, direct attach devices and wireless access points. OCC's field term plugs meet ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 Category 6A standards for component performance, and can be used in Cat 5e, 6 or 6A links or channels. The TIA 568C standard addresses structured cabling standards for design and implementation, while the C.2 subsection focuses on balanced twisted-pair telecommunication cabling and components standards.   ![describe the image](https://www.accu-tech.com/hs-fs/file-401465023-png/images/occ3.png)   If you are interested in learning more about OCC's Cat 6A Field Terminable Plugs, or if you are curious about any other OCC products, [contact your local Accu-Tech sales representative](https://www.accu-tech.com/contact) today. - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) Topics: [OCC](https://www.accu-tech.com/accu-insider/topic/occ) [Cat 6A](https://www.accu-tech.com/accu-insider/topic/cat-6a) ### Subscribe To Our Blog ### Additional Information ### About Accu-Tech Accu-Tech is a national distributor of Voice, Data, AV, Wireless, and Security solutions.
