The **A-MCSSP60100-Y-R** is a specific part number typically associated with **Modular Patch Cords** (Ethernet cables), often manufactured by companies like Assmann WSW Components. Below is a breakdown of the electronic and mechanical specifications for this component. --- ## 1. Part Number Breakdown Based on standard industry nomenclature for this series, the code represents: | Segment | Meaning | Specification | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **A-MCSSP** | Series Type | Modular Cable, Shielded (S/FTP or FTP) | | **60100** | Length | 10.0 Meters (1000 cm) | | **Y** | Color | Yellow | | **R** | Packaging/Revision | Retail/RoHS Compliant | --- ## 2. Technical Specifications ### A. Electrical Properties These parts are designed to meet high-speed data transmission standards (typically Category 6 or 6A). * **Contact Resistance:** Usually 20mΩ maximum. * **Insulation Resistance:** 500MΩ minimum. * **Dielectric Withstanding Voltage:** 1000V AC/DC. * **Data Rate:** Supports up to 1Gbps (Cat6) or 10Gbps (Cat6A) depending on the specific cable frequency rating (250MHz - 500MHz). ### B. Mechanical & Material Construction The "electronic" performance is heavily dependent on the physical shielding and conductivity: * **Conductor:** 24 AWG to 26 AWG Stranded Copper (provides flexibility and conductivity). * **Shielding:** * **S/FTP:** Individual foil shielding for pairs and an overall braid. * **Protection:** Reduces EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) and RFI (Radio Frequency Interference). * **Connectors:** 2x RJ45 (8P8C) plugs. * **Plating:** Gold plating (typically 3µ" to 50µ") on contacts to prevent corrosion and ensure signal integrity. * **Jacket:** PVC or LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen). --- ## 3. Key Applications * **Data Centers:** Connecting servers to patch panels in high-noise environments. * **Industrial Networking:** Where shielding is required to protect against motor or fluorescent light interference. * **Telecommunications:** High-speed LAN infrastructure. --- ## 4.
