ACT 0.5m Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP) Black Network Cable (IB9200)

This 0.5-meter Cat6a patch cable delivers 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance with 500 MHz bandwidth, making it ideal for high-speed networking in data centers, offices, or home setups. Its S/FTP shielding (screened foiled twisted pair) with individually foil-wrapped pairs and an overall braided screen provides superior protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, ensuring reliable signal integrity even in electrically noisy environments.

Overview

The ACT IB9200 is a premium network patch cable engineered for demanding applications. It features 100% stranded copper conductors (AWG 26/7) for flexibility and durability, gold-plated RJ45 connectors (50µ) for corrosion resistance and optimal conductivity, and a snagless boot design to protect the locking tab during installation. The low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) jacket enhances safety in case of fire, making it suitable for public buildings and confined spaces.

What stands out

• Cat6a performance: Supports 10GBASE-T up to 500 MHz, future-proofing your network.
• Double shielding (S/FTP): Each pair is foil-wrapped, plus an overall braided screen, minimizing alien crosstalk.
• Premium construction: 100% copper stranded conductors and 50µ gold-plated contacts ensure long-term reliability.
• Compact length: 0.5 meters is perfect for short patch connections in racks or between adjacent devices.
• LSZH jacket: Low smoke and zero halogen for enhanced safety.
