California Prop 65 Warning
For CA Residents Only.
California Proposition 65 Warning
Proposition 65, officially the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, is a law that requires warnings be provided to California consumers when they might be exposed to chemicals identified by California as causing cancer or reproductive toxicity. The warnings are intended to help California consumers make informed decisions about their exposures to these chemicals from the products they use. The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) administers the Proposition 65 program and publishes the listed chemicals, which includes more that 850 chemicals. In August 2016, OEHHA adopted new regulations, effective on August 30, 2018, which change the information required in Proposition 65 warnings.
• WARNING: Some cable, plastic, and metal products may contain chemicals known to the state of CA to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.

Paige Electric GameChanger Cable, 22AWG, UTP, Solid, CMR FT4, 1000ft Box
Application
GameChanger cabling is designed specifically for transmitting Ethernet and can support all 8 classes of Power over Ethernet. GameChanger Cable can deliver 2.5Gbps and 100W PoE up to 656 feet (200m). If your run needs to go farther, GameChanger Cable drops to 10Mbps and 100W PoE up to 850 feet (259m).
Connectors
GameChanger cables have 22 AWG conductors. So when punching down to a jack or a patch panel, any Cat6 connectivity will work. If you are using a RJ45 connector, check out this termination guide.

Part numbers, best practices and more...
Gauge sizes and OD’s
All GameChanger Cable conductors s are 22 AWG. OD’s range from “similar to a Cat 6” to “a little smaller than Cat6A” with the exception of the Class I, Division 1 construction.
Jacks and patch panels
All compliant Cat 6 or 6A jacks and patch panels support 22-26 AWG and should work with GameChanger

2.5 Gb/s at 656 feet? 10 Mb/s at 850 feet? Says who!?
Don't just take our word for it - You can certify it yourself with Fluke or other handheld testers! Want a 25 year warranty to go with that? No problem!
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, and much more.
What connectors should be used with GameChanger?
GameChanger cables have 22 AWG conductors. So when punching down to a jack or a patch panel, any Cat6 connectivity will work. If you are using a RJ45 connector, check out this termination guide.
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 as a critical part of their solutions for everything from airports to banks and parking structures to amusement parks.
What classes of POE are supported by GameChanger?
GameChanger supports Power over Ethernet Classes 1-8. Check out this voltage drop chart for more information.
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.
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.
How do I ensure reliability at maximum distance?
For a reliable, extra long distance run (greater than 200 meter / 656 feet) you should be using a managed PoE Switch. For any port connected to a longdistance GameChanger run, make sure it is set to 10 Mbps. Don't assume auto configuration will sufficiently detect the bandwidth and adjust. If you'reusing a network camera, you'll need to be sure your video stream is configured appropriately as well. If you're unsure how much bandwidth your video stream will use, you can consult an online tool like this.
