InLine 100pcs. Bulk-Pack Patch Cable S/FTP Cat.6 copper halogen free grey 0.5m

The InLine B-76950 0.5m Cat6 S/FTP RJ-45 Grey patch cable is a short-length network cable engineered for reliable gigabit Ethernet connections. With Cat6 performance and S/FTP shielding, the cable supports data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s while reducing crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference. The halogen-free jacket makes this cable suitable for installations where low-smoke and low-toxicity materials are required. Both ends are fitted with RJ-45 connectors for straightforward plug-and-play use in routers, switches, patch panels and network devices.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction combines an overall foil shield with individually braided and/or foil-shielded pairs to provide effective protection against electromagnetic interference and near-end crosstalk. Cat6 category performance ensures stable transmission at gigabit speeds over short distances, and the short 0.5 m length minimizes signal loss in patching scenarios. The halogen-free outer jacket reduces hazardous gas emissions in case of fire and is suited to environments with stricter material-safety requirements. Standard RJ-45 terminations guarantee compatibility with common networking hardware.

Suitable for

• Short patch links between switches, routers and patch panels in data cabinets
• Connecting network devices in small server rooms or office desks
• High-density patching where cable length must be minimized
• Environments requiring halogen-free cabling for safety compliance

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6
• Length: 0.5 m
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil + individually shielded pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 on both ends
• Maximum supported data rate: 1000 Mbit/s
• Jacket material: halogen-free
• Colour: grey

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to the port of a switch, router or network device and the other connector to the corresponding port on the patch panel or device you wish to link. The cable is intended for short patching tasks; avoid stretching the cable tightly or bending it sharply near the connectors to maintain signal integrity. Ensure ports are powered down if required by your site’s cabling procedures before insertion or removal to prevent accidental network disruptions.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this 0.5 m Cat6 S/FTP patch cable in short intra-rack or desk-side connections where minimal length reduces crosstalk and attenuation. Keep the cable away from high-power electrical cables and maintain gentle bend radii to preserve shielding effectiveness and connector reliability.
