InLine Patch Cable S/FTP PiMF Cat.6 250MHz PVC copper black 5m

The InLine Patch Cable S/FTP PiMF Cat.6 250MHz PVC copper black 5m is a 5‑metre Category 6 twisted-pair network cable for connecting devices with RJ45 ports. It supports Gigabit Ethernet (1 Gbps) at up to 250 MHz and is suited for linking switches, routers, sockets, patch panels and network cards. The cable features an S/FTP (shielded foil over twisted pairs with overall braid) design and a PVC jacket for mechanical protection and flexibility.

Advantages

The S/FTP PiMF shielding reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, improving signal integrity for high-speed data transfer. The Cat.6 specification and 250 MHz rating ensure reliable performance with Gigabit networks. The PVC outer jacket provides durability and flexibility while the 5 m length offers convenient reach for typical rack, desk and wall outlet installations. Black colouring allows discreet integration into most environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches and routers
• Patch panel to network device links
• Wall socket to PC or access point connections
• Office and home Gigabit Ethernet setups

How to use

Insert an RJ45 connector into the network port of each device (for example, a switch and a computer). Ensure connectors click into place to establish a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference. For permanent installations, verify connection quality with network diagnostic tools or a cable tester if available.

Recommendations

Use indoors and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures to preserve the PVC jacket. For best performance, keep the cable run within recommended lengths for Gigabit Ethernet and avoid running parallel to high-voltage power lines.
