InLine 74955 networking cable Grey 0.5 m Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP)

Space-saving design for maximum port density: Approx. 40 % less space required than conventional AWG26 patch cables – ideal for network cabinets and server rooms.
High-quality copper conductors for maximum performance: Full Cat.6A transmission quality with up to 10 Gbit/s over lengths of up to 30 meters.
PoE support up to 87 watts (4PPoE): Enables energy-efficient operation of IP cameras, access points or VoIP telephones without additional power supply units.
Sustainable & economical: Approx. 25% material savings reduce transportation and manufacturing costs and improve the CO2 balance.
Flexible, safe TPE sheath (LSZH): Flame-retardant, halogen-free and particularly flexible for narrow installation paths.

The InLine® Slim Cat.6A S/FTP patch cable seriescombines highest network performance with maximum space and energy efficiency. Thanks to the particularly slim design with AWG28 conductors, these cables enable a significantly higher port density in network cabinets and ensure improved air circulation, which increases cooling and efficiency.

In contrast to conventional, thinner AWG32 cables, this cable supports full Cat.6A transmission quality at up to 500 MHzand 4PPoEwith up to87 watts. This makes it the ideal solution for professional applications where a combination of space-saving, PoE capability and high performance is required.

The use of high-quality copper conductors minimizes signal loss and ensures a reliable network connection - even over distances of up to 30 metres. The S/FTP double shielding reliably protects the cable from electromagnetic interference.

In addition to its technical performance, this cable also offers ecological benefits: Approx. 25% less material usedreduces transportation costs and, in the long term, environmental taxes in accordance with future Green Law requirements.

The TPE sheath (LSZH)combines flexibility with fire protection: It is halogen-free, flame-retardant and ensures minimal smoke development in the event of fire – ideal for safety-critical applications.

How to use

Connect the moulded RJ‑45 plugs to the corresponding Ethernet ports on your switches, patch panels or devices following the T568B wiring. Route the cable through the cabinet or rack, taking advantage of its slim 4.1 mm diameter and flexible TPE jacket to pass through narrow gaps. Ensure connectors are fully inserted and latched to establish a reliable link. For PoE devices, verify that the switch or injector supports 4PPoE and the required power budget before connecting.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid tight bends near the connector and maintain separation from high-voltage power lines to reduce interference. Use in short patching runs up to 0.5 m as intended for high-density cabinet interconnections; for longer runs up to 30 m, verify attenuation and device compatibility. Store and install the cable within the specified temperature range (-20 to +75 °C).
