Crosstalk (NEXT), and Far-End Crosstalk (FEXT). Additionally, unlike the cables for 100BASE-TX, the 1000BASE-
T cables must pass tests for Equal-Level Far-End Crosstalk (ELFEXT) and Return Loss.
When testing your cabling, be sure to include the patch cables that connect the switch and other end devices to the
patch panels on your site. The patch cables are frequently overlooked when testing cable and they must also
comply with the cabling standards.
Note on 10GBASE-T cable requirements
The Category 6 networking cables that work for 1000BASE-T connections may work for 10GBASE-T, as long as
the distance is less than 30m and the cable installation has been tested for compliance to IEEE requirements. But,
for the most robust connections, you should use cabling that complies with the Category 6A or Category 7
specifications, as described in the TIA-568-C (ANSI/TIA-568-C.2) and ISO/IEC 11801 standards. 10GBASE-T is a
sophisticated technology that relies upon high quality cable installations. It is sensitive to Alien Near End Crosstalk
(ANEXT) which can arrive upon the cable due to cables placed in close proximity to the data cables. It is
recommended that cable dressing be done carefully and in compliance with recommendations in the TIA TSB-
155A.
Like 1000BASE-T, 10GBASE-T requires testing of all the crosstalk and return loss parameters described above,
and also ANEXT.
In addition to ANEXT, 10GBASE-T is more sensitive to external electrical noise in the environment. It is
recommended that radio transmitters and other sources of high frequency continuous wave radio frequency be
kept away from LAN cables.
When testing your cabling, be sure to include the patch cables that connect the switch and other end devices to the
patch panels on your site. The patch cables are frequently overlooked when testing cable and they must also
comply with the cabling standards. For 10GBASE-T, Category 6 patch cables are sensitive to movement once link
has been established, and could cause link to drop if moved. Therefore, Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends
using Category 6A patch cables, or using cable management options to tie down (dress) the Category 6 patch
cables so they cannot move.
For Conducted and Radiated Immunity in accordance with EN55024, the Aruba switch is limited to Performance
Criteria A with shielded cables (CAT6A).
