Detailed Product Description
Conversely, the connector must also meet the mated connecting hardware pair-to-pair NEXT loss specification across the allowable Category 6 de-embedded test plug NEXT loss range. In the case of pair combination 3,6-4,5, the optimum performance is with a centered de-embedded plug of 37.0 dB at 100 MHz (shown in Graph 1) but the connector must also pass the mated connecting hardware pair-to-pair NEXT loss specification with test plugs ranging from 36.4 dB to 37.6 dB. When a plug is outside of this range, mated performance declines and is no longer compatible to the connecting hardware.
