InLine patch cable extension, S/FTP (PiMf), Cat.6, halogen-free, 2m

The InLine patch cable extension S/FTP Cat.6 halogen-free 2m is a 2-metre network extension cable designed for reliable Gigabit Ethernet connections. Constructed as S/FTP Cat.6 and fitted with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, the cable supports data transmission up to 1 Gb/s and a maximum frequency of 250 MHz. The halogen-free sheath reduces hazardous emissions in case of fire and is suitable for use in home and office environments.

Advantages

This S/FTP Cat.6 extension offers shielded pairs to minimise electromagnetic interference, maintaining signal integrity for high-speed data transfer. The halogen-free jacket improves safety and environmental compatibility. With standard RJ-45 plugs and a 2 m length, the cable provides a straightforward way to extend existing network connections without re-terminating cables.

Suitable for

• Extending wired Ethernet connections in home networks
• Extending office workstations or small office networks
• Connecting network devices that require Gigabit speeds (1 Gb/s)

Key specifications

• Standard: S/FTP Cat.6
• Length: 2 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Maximum data rate: 1 Gb/s
• Maximum frequency: 250 MHz
• Sheath: Halogen-free
• Colour: Black

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the existing network outlet or patch panel and the other into the network device (PC, switch, router or access point). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click and avoid sharp bends near the connector ends to preserve signal quality. Use the cable to bridge short gaps where the existing cable is too short or to create a clean, accessible patch point.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines and keep overall cable lengths within Ethernet guidelines. Inspect connectors for damage before use and replace the cable if the sheath or connectors are compromised.
