advanCinG The PaTCh Cord
The weakest link in any channel is the patch cord. This is especially true under the high-frequency
operation of Augmented Category 6 systems.
When you build for the long term, you need patch cords as reliable as the cable behind the walls. That
is why ADC patch cords are made with stranded conductors for improved mechanical durability of the
much handled patch cord. This is no ordinary stranded cord because, in the manufacturing process,
ADC uses a machine die to compact individual strands into a form that resembles a solid conductor.
You get the best of both worlds—electrical performance of a solid conductor combined with the
flexibility and durability of a stranded conductor.
There is a reason we make our own patch cords. No one does it better.
