Long copper run and NVX


 

I have a run that will be about 275ft.? Shielded CAT6A connected to a 10G extreme switch.? I have a fiber there as well and will be prepared to use it.? But, just wondering if anyone has any feedback that has been in this situation.

I believe one retrofit project I did the network design/configuration/commissioning for we had one run (Cat5-pre-E) with a cable run in the ¡°it might have actually been slightly longer than 300 ft/100 meter¡± range and the NVX device at the end of the cable (pretty sure it was a D30) has had no issues. I think that might have even been with PoE but I¡¯m a little foggy on the physical details since that was largely beyond my responsibility.

?

Over that distance I¡¯d be more concerned about PoE if you were going to try to use it, particularly PoE++/UPOE-type power consumption than data integrity, but since you mentioned having fiber I can assume you¡¯re planning on locally powering anyway.

?

Of course using a proper cable certifier to make sure the cable and terminations are completely happy with the world is always a good idea.

In a related story, I would definitely recommend looking at the Belden REVconnect termination system.
We've been using it for a while and I think it really helps to remove most of the 'Subjective' aspects of the tech's skills with terminations...

I spec REVConnect for all HDBaseT cable runs.

We switched to Belden REVConnect as well and it has greatly increased our accuracy when terminating any kind of shielded category cable. Worth taking a look at if you're concerned about getting quality terminations.?
