The **A-MCSSP60300-G-R** is a specific part number typically associated with **Modular Patch Cables** (often categorized under ASSMANN WSW Components). This specific model refers to a high-quality, shielded Ethernet networking cable. --- ### 1. Technical Specifications Below are the primary electronic and physical characteristics of this component: | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Category** | Cat6 (Category 6) | | **Connector Type** | RJ45 (8P8C) to RJ45 (8P8C) | | **Shielding Type** | S/FTP (Shielded Foiled Twisted Pair) | | **Length** | 3.0 Meters (~9.84 feet) | | **Color** | Green (indicated by the "-G" in the suffix) | | **Conductor Gauge** | 27 AWG | | **Jacket Material** | LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) | | **Gold Plating** | 3µm (on contacts) | --- ### 2. Breakdown of the Part Number The alphanumeric code follows a specific logic used by the manufacturer: * **A-MCSS:** Series prefix for Category 6 Shielded Modular Patch Cords. * **P:** Denotes "Patch" cable. * **60:** Represents Category 6 (Cat6). * **300:** The length in centimeters (300cm = 3 meters). * **G:** Color code for **Green**. * **R:** Indicates RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliance. --- ### 3. Electronic Design Features #### A. S/FTP Shielding Unlike standard UTP (Unshielded) cables, this part features **S/FTP** architecture. * **Individual Shielding:** Each of the four pairs is wrapped in foil to prevent "Crosstalk" between internal wires. * **Overall Braid:** An outer tinned copper braid surrounds all pairs to protect against external **EMI (Electromagnetic Interference)** and **RFI (Radio Frequency Interference)**. #### B. LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) Jacket In the event of a fire, the electronic insulation of this cable is designed to emit limited smoke and no toxic halogens. This is a critical safety requirement for data centers and poorly ventilated industrial spaces. #### C. Performance Capability * **Frequency:** Rated for up to **250 MHz**. * **Data Rate:** Supports up to **1 Gbps (Gigabit Ethernet)** over the full 3-meter length. * **Strain Relief:** Features a molded "Snagless" boot to protect the RJ45 clip from breaking during installation. --- ### 4. Typical Applications * **Data Centers:** High-density patching where EMI from neighboring cables is a concern. * **Industrial Automation:** Connecting PLCs or industrial PCs in environments with electrical noise. * **Server Racks:** Interconnecting switches, routers, and patch panels.
