InLine Patch cable, Cat.6A, S/FTP, TPE flexible, white, 10m

The InLine Patch cable Cat.6A S/FTP TPE flexible white 10m is a shielded network cable designed for reliable high-speed data transmission over distances up to 10 metres. It uses S/FTP shielding to minimise electromagnetic interference and features gold-plated RJ-45 connectors for stable contact and reduced signal loss. The outer jacket is made from TPE (thermoplastic elastomer), providing improved flexibility and mechanical resilience while the white finish maintains a neat appearance in office or home network installations.

Advantages

The cable's S/FTP construction provides individual pair shielding plus an overall shield, improving protection against crosstalk and external noise. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors enhance contact reliability and corrosion resistance. TPE jacket material combines flexibility with durability, allowing the cable to be routed through tight spaces and moved without damage. The 10 m length covers mid-range connections between switches, patch panels, and workstations while maintaining Cat.6A performance for high-bandwidth applications.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs or workstations to switches or patch panels
• Small office and home office network cabling
• High-speed Ethernet links up to Gigabit and beyond within 10 m
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference where shielded cabling is preferred

How to use

Plug one gold-plated RJ-45 connector into the network port of your switch, router or patch panel and insert the other connector into the device requiring network access. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the locking tab snaps into place. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference. For fixed installations, use gentle cable ties or clips to secure the cable without compressing the jacket; for temporary connections, coil excess length to prevent strain on connectors.

Recommendations

For best performance, keep cable bends above the minimum bend radius and avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines. Use shielded patch panels and properly grounded equipment when deploying S/FTP cables to maintain shielding effectiveness. Inspect connectors periodically for contamination or wear and replace the cable if mechanical damage to the jacket or connectors is visible.
