Ethernet patch cable InLine Cat6 S/FTP PiMF AWG27 PVC, 100 m, blue

InLine Cat6 S/FTP PiMF AWG27 PVC patch cable on a 100 m spool in blue is a bulk network cable intended for cable assembly and structured cabling. The cable features S/FTP shielding — an overall braided shield combined with foil around each twisted pair (pair in metal foil, PiMF) — and AWG27 copper conductors with a PVC outer jacket. It is designed to support Gigabit Ethernet and maintain signal integrity across standard Cat6 distances for office, server room and home network installations.

Advantages

The combination of an overall braid and individually foil-shielded pairs reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, improving performance in electrically noisy environments. AWG27 full-copper conductors provide stable conductivity for data transmission while the flexible construction facilitates routing and termination. Supplied on a 100 m spool, the cable is suitable for on-site confectioning, allowing custom patch cable lengths and clean installations.

Suitable for

• Confectioning custom patch cables and patch panels
• Gigabit Ethernet networks in offices and small data centers
• Structured cabling installations in commercial and residential buildings
• Environments requiring improved EMI protection

Key specifications

How to use

Cut required lengths from the 100 m spool and strip the outer PVC jacket to access the four twisted pairs. Maintain pair twist as much as possible when preparing terminations. Terminate with Cat6-compatible RJ45 plugs or punch down into keystone jacks or patch panels using proper tools for shielded cable: ensure the overall braid and pair foil are connected to the connector or chassis grounding point to preserve shielding effectiveness. Test each assembled cable with a suitable network tester to verify continuity, pair mapping and performance.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, route shielded Cat6 cables away from high-voltage power lines and sources of interference. Use compatible shielded connectors and ensure proper grounding of the cable shield. Observe maximum recommended Cat6 horizontal run lengths (typically up to 100 m for structured cabling) and avoid sharp bends or excessive pulling tension during installation.
