VALUE 0.5m S/FTP Cat.6a Network Cable

The VALUE 0.5m S/FTP Cat.6a networking cable provides a cost-effective solution for high-speed data transmission up to 10 Gbit/s with a bandwidth of 500 MHz. This patch cable is intended for networking connections between devices and uses a prepared shielded twisted pair (PiMF) construction with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. The cable is flexible and designed for narrow bending while the moulded kink protection increases durability. Impedance is 100 Ohm and contact wiring follows the 1:1 EIA/TIA 568 standard. Pairs are shielded with aluminium foil and the cable has complete braided shielding.

Advantages

The S/FTP Cat.6a design offers improved protection against electromagnetic interference, supporting stable high-speed transfers up to 10 Gbit/s. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts ensure reliable signal transmission and corrosion resistance. The short 0.5 m length suits compact setups and reduces cable clutter. Moulded kink protection and a flexible conductor allow installation in confined spaces without compromising durability.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and network interfaces over short distances
• Server racks and patch panels in dense cabling environments
• Workstations and home office setups requiring 10 Gbit/s links
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network ports on your devices (switch, router, NIC or patch panel) ensuring correct seating of the connector latch. The cable uses 1:1 contact wiring compliant with EIA/TIA 568, so no special wiring is required. Keep the cable routed to avoid sharp bends beyond its designed flexibility and ensure the moulded kink protection is not stressed during installation.

Recommendations

Use this S/FTP Cat.6a patch cable for short interconnects where 10 Gbit/s bandwidth is needed and where shielding against interference is beneficial. Avoid running the cable alongside high-voltage power lines and maintain bend radii consistent with typical Cat.6a cabling practice to preserve performance.
