Dätwyler unilan CAT 6a S/FTP Patch Cable, RJ45 to RJ45, 0.5 m, Grey, LSZH 653 503

Delivering 10 Gigabit Ethernet over a 500 MHz bandwidth, this Dätwyler unilan patch cable is built for high-density data centre and LAN environments. The 0.5 m length is ideal for short, tidy connections between patch panels and switches.

Overview

The cable features RJ45 male connectors on both ends, with pairs individually wrapped in metal foil (PiMF) and an overall braided shield (S/FTP) for superior crosstalk and EMI protection. The grey LSZH jacket is halogen-free, reducing toxic smoke and corrosive gases in the event of fire.

What stands out

• CAT 6a performance: supports 10GBASE-T up to 500 MHz
• S/FTP shielding: each pair shielded plus overall braid for maximum noise immunity
• Halogen-free LSZH jacket: safer for indoor use, low smoke and zero halogen
• Molded snagless boots protect the connector locking tab during installation
• Stranded bare copper conductors (AWG 26/7) provide flexibility for frequent patching
