Description

GameChanger Plenum Blue with White Stripe 1,000′ Box

The GameChanger cable from Paige is the easiest, fastest, and least expensive way to take your networking infrastructure well beyond the 100-meter limit!

A cable that pulls and terminates like a CAT6 but can deliver 1Gbps and PoE+ over 200 meters* – that’s a GameChanger!

Delivers 1Gbps performance and PoE+ over 200 meters
UL Verified GameChanger Cable is the first and only cable verified by UL to deliver 1Gb/s and PoE over 200m.

This cable consists of 4 pair solid bare copper; color-coded FEP insulation; overall LSFR-PVC jacket. RoHS-2 Compliant

Application
GameChanger cabling is designed specifically for transmitting Ethernet and can support all 8 classes of Power over Ethernet. Maximum transmission distance exceeds Category Rating limits, but varies with equipment and settings used.

Connectors
GameChanger cabling works with most Cat 6 jacks and patch cords, but is only recommended to work with Platinum Tools ezEX44 or ezEX48 RJ45 modular plugs.

Alternate Constructions
GameChanger cabling is also available with:
• 258300336 – Plenum, Blue w/ White Stripe
• 258300310 – Plenum, White
• 258330804 – OSP, Black
• 258340804 – OSP Shielded, Black

Frequently Asked Questions

WHAT’S THE MAXIMUM DISTANCE I CAN USE THE GAMECHANGER CABLE?
That depends on the power and bandwidth requirements of your application. At a minimum, you can expect
1Gbps at 200 meters (656 feet) and you can expect 10 Mb/s at 259 meters (850 feet.) You can also expect to
deliver 802.3at Type 2 “PoE+” up to 850 feet.

DOES THE GAMECHANGER WORK FOR ALL APPLICATIONS?
Yes, the GameChanger Cable is agnostic to the type of Ethernet traffic you are running. We have seen
customers using GameChanger to solve long-distance cabling issues for access points, surveillance cameras,
VoIP phones, point of sale devices, access control, digital signage, PoE lighting, and much more.

WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE GAMECHANGER AND A STANDARD CAT6?
The Gamechanger has been designed with an increased gauge size, carefully designed twisting and specialty
materials to be optimized for long-distance Ethernet applications.

WHO IS HAVING SUCCESS WITH THE GAMECHANGER TODAY?
Several of the world’s largest security integrators (6 out of the top 8) began deploying the GameChanger as
early as 2016. Consultants and Engineers around the world have specified the Gamechanger is a critical part
of their solutions for everything from airports to banks and parking structures to amusement parks.
