DSIT CAT 6a S/FTP LSOH Ethernet Patch Cable, 2m, Violet, 10 Gbps, 500 MHz, RJ45

Engineered for 10 Gigabit Ethernet, this DSIT CAT 6a patch cable delivers a 500 MHz bandwidth over a 2-meter S/FTP shielded run, ensuring error-free data transfer in high-density network environments. The violet LSOH jacket adds a distinct colour for easy identification while meeting strict fire safety standards.

Overview

This DSIT CAT 6a network cable is built for professional networking where performance and safety are paramount. The S/FTP shielding—individual foil around each twisted pair plus an overall braided screen—provides superior protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, making it ideal for data centres, server rooms, and office installations. The low smoke zero halogen (LSOH) jacket reduces toxic emissions in case of fire, complying with IEC 60332-1, IEC 61034, and IEC 60754.

What stands out

• Supports 10GBASE-T Ethernet for high-speed data transfer up to 10 Gbps.
• 500 MHz bandwidth exceeds CAT 6a requirements for stable performance.
• S/FTP shielding minimises alien crosstalk and EMI in noisy environments.
• LSOH jacket is flame-retardant and low-smoke, enhancing safety.
• Violet colour aids in cable management and port identification.
• Stranded 26 AWG copper conductors offer flexibility for patching.
