VALUE Cat6a 1.5m Grey S/FTP Network Cable

The VALUE Cat6a Networking Cable 1.5m (S/FTP) is a patch cable designed for data transfer rates up to 10 Gbit/s and a bandwidth of 500 MHz. It uses a prepared shielded twisted pair (PiMF) construction with RJ-45 connectors on both ends and moulded kink protection for increased durability. The flexible grey cable is suitable for installations with narrow bends and follows the EIA/TIA 568 contact wiring (1:1).

Advantages

S/FTP shielding (foil around each pair plus overall braided shield) reduces electromagnetic interference and supports stable high-speed connections. The cable's 100 Ω impedance and Cat6a specification ensure compatibility with network equipment that requires up to 10 Gbit/s performance. Molded strain relief at the connectors increases longevity and the compact, flexible design simplifies routing in confined spaces.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers, and networked devices in office and home LANs
• High-speed data links requiring up to 10 Gbit/s
• Environments where reduced interference is important (server rooms, workstations)
• Installations with limited cable bend radius

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to your network device (for example a switch, router or PC) and the other end to the corresponding port on the second device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a secure connection. Route the cable avoiding sharp edges and excessive tension; use cable management accessories if needed. The cable follows standard 1:1 wiring, so no special pairing or re-termination is required for typical network equipment.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable parallel to power lines or large electrical equipment to minimise electromagnetic interference. Do not exceed the recommended bend radius and prevent kinks; inspect connectors for damage before installation.
