CAMARILLO, Calif., March 25, 2014 - Platinum Tools, the leader in solutions for the preparation, installation and hand termination of wire and cable, is proud to announce the launch of the new 10Gig Termination Kit, a complete turnkey field kit (P/N 90170) that includes 10-Gig Cat6A shielded connectors, the Tele-Titan Xg Cat6A crimp tool, cable stripper and external crimper. Now shipping and available to the security market, the new system, which exceeds 10-Gig performance standard requirements for streaming high bandwidth across Cat6E, Cat6A, and Cat7 cable, will be featured at 2014 ISC West, held in Las Vegas, Nev. from April 2-4 at the Sands Expo and Convention Center, booth 4045.
“Streaming media traffic, whether security data, audio or video, is on a sharp rise and networks are demanding more bandwidth,” explained John Phillips, Platinum Tools, Inc. product manager. “That means bigger and usually shielded cable, such as Cat6E, Cat6A and Cat7. Our new 10Gig Kit terminates larger cable to meet 10-Gig standards.”
The connector choice is critical. In today’s security world, it needs to be at least 10-Gig rated, cable compatible, and field-terminate capable. “Our 10-Gig Cat6A shielded connector not only meets, but exceeds these requirements,” Phillips added. “Used along with the Tele-TitanXg Crimp Tool, our cable stripper and external shielded crimper you achieve an optimal termination every time.”

- Max cable OD: 8.5mm/0.335in.
- Max conductor OD: 1.35mm/0.053in.
