EXERTIS CONNECT Cat 6A S/FTP Patch Cable, Violet, 20 m, Slim Snagless, 10 Gbps 858524

Long cable runs in data centers and offices often suffer from crosstalk and interference, degrading network performance. This 20-meter Cat 6A patch cable from EXERTIS CONNECT solves that problem with S/FTP shielding: each twisted pair is wrapped in metal foil, and an overall braided screen protects the entire bundle. The result is reliable 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 500 MHz, even in electrically noisy environments.

Who is it for

Network administrators, IT professionals, and power users who need a dependable, high-speed connection over longer distances. Ideal for connecting switches, servers, patch panels, and PoE devices in structured cabling systems.
