What is the brain difference between aluminum (CCA) and copper (Cu) in network cable?
Network cable is one of the most important components of a computer network and is a kind of data communication platform in the network. In fact, the network cable is used to connect one device to another in the network.
The heart is inside the cable, the brain is inside. Network cable manufacturers control the cost of producing their cables by changing components such as the LAN cable core.
CCA cable:
This term stands for Copper Clad Aluminum, which means copper-clad aluminum. The CCA cable uses an aluminum core as the conductor.
A copper cladding is placed around this core, which brings the impedance of this wire closer to that of an all-copper wire through the skin effect at high frequencies.
The coating is welded along the seam and encloses the entire aluminum core. This type of core is more suitable for cables used in small businesses and does not carry critical information.
CCC Cable:
CCC cables are standard network cables that use a copper core and plating. These cables have high data transmission speeds and are flexible, do not corrode, and can support PoE capability.
The all-copper cable is also highly secure, as it does not produce much heat. CCC cable is usually used for long distances. In some brands, this type of cable is also called cu cable.
