Dexlan Cat. 6A S/FTP (PiMf) Ultra-Thin LSZH Patch Cable, 0.5 m, Grey 858701

Engineered for 10 Gigabit Ethernet with a 500 MHz bandwidth, this Dexlan patch cable delivers high-speed connectivity in a remarkably slim 3.8 mm profile. The S/FTP (PiMF) shielding—each pair wrapped in metal foil plus an overall braid—provides superior protection against alien crosstalk and EMI, ensuring reliable performance even in dense network environments. The ultra-thin, halogen-free LSZH jacket adds safety and flexibility, while the snagless latch protection prevents accidental disconnections. Ideal for data centers, LANs, and high-density patching where space and performance are critical.

Overview

This 0.5 m Cat. 6A patch cable from Dexlan is built to support 10GBASE-T networks with full compliance to TIA/EIA-568B standards. The cable features four twisted pairs of 28 AWG stranded copper conductors, each individually shielded with foil (PiMF) and wrapped in an overall braid for maximum signal integrity. The low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) jacket is not only environmentally friendly but also flame-retardant, making it suitable for enclosed spaces. The grey colour blends seamlessly into most rack setups, and the ultra-thin design reduces clutter and improves airflow in high-density installations.

What stands out

• Ultra-thin 3.8 mm outer diameter saves space and improves airflow in racks.
• S/FTP (PiMF) shielding with foil per pair and overall braid for excellent crosstalk immunity.
• Halogen-free LSZH jacket for low smoke and toxicity in case of fire.
• Snagless latch protection on RJ45 connectors prevents damage during installation.
• Supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 500 MHz, ideal for high-speed networking.
