The cat6a doubles data transmission bandwidth from 250 to 500 mhz.
Cat 6 augmented.
The standard extends the frequency of cat 6a cables to 500 mhz requires cat 6a cables to support up to 100 meters and adds requirements for alien crosstalk.

Category 6a operates at frequencies of up to 500 mhz and can support transmission speeds at 10 gigabits per second gbps.
Category 6 cable cat 6 is a standardized twisted pair cable for ethernet and other network physical layers that is backward compatible with the category 5 5e and category 3 cable standards.
This standard sets forth the requirements necessary for enhanced performance of augmented category 6 cat 6a cables.
The cable standard specifies performance of up to 250 mhz compared to 100 mhz for cat 5 and cat 5e.
The a stands for augmented and is a nod to cat6a s improved specifications compared with its predecessor the category 6 or cat6 cable.
And provides superior reliability and transmission.
The category 6a or cat6a cable is the latest iteration of gigabit ethernet cabling.
Augmented category 6 6a category 6a cable is the latest twisted pair cable type defined in february 2008 under the newest version of the tia 568 b standard 568 b 2 10.
Decreases the chance of crosstalk interference.
Cat 6 supports 10 gigabit ethernet only up to 164 feet of cable length.
Cat 6 has to meet more stringent specifications for crosstalk and system noise than cat 5 and cat 5e.
