InLine Patch Cable S/FTP PiMF Cat.6 grey AWG27 PVC CU 100m

InLine S/FTP PiMF Cat.6 patch cable on a 100 m reel provides Cat6 performance for horizontal and structured cabling. The cable features four twisted pairs with individual foil around each pair and an overall braided screen (S/FTP), AWG27 full copper conductors, and PVC insulation and jacket. Supplied on a 100 m reel in grey, this cable is intended for confectioning custom patch leads, permanent links or in‑wall installations where Cat6 specifications and shielded transmission are required.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction with pair‑in‑metal‑foil plus an overall braid reduces crosstalk and electromagnetic interference, improving signal integrity in environments with multiple cables or electrical noise. AWG27 copper conductors and Cat6 design support gigabit Ethernet and applications requiring higher bandwidth and lower return loss compared with lower category cables. The PVC jacket provides flexibility for routing and termination while maintaining mechanical protection during installation.

Suitable for

• Confectioning custom patch cables for network racks and switches
• Horizontal cabling runs in offices and data centers
• Shielded installations in environments with EMI concerns
• Gigabit Ethernet and PoE applications within Cat6 limits

Key specifications

• Conductor: 4 pairs, full copper, AWG27
• Shielding: individual foil per pair + overall braided screen
• Jacket and insulation material: PVC
• Length: 100 m reel
• Color: grey
• Application: Gigabit Ethernet, structured cabling

How to use

Cut required cable length from the 100 m reel and strip outer jacket carefully to preserve pair shielding. Terminate conductors with compatible Cat6 shielded connectors and ensure the braided screen is properly connected to the connector’s shield or the outlet grounding point. Maintain pair twist as close as possible to the termination point to preserve performance. Route the cable away from strong electrical noise sources where feasible and follow standard bend radius and installation practices for Cat6 cabling.

Recommendations

For reliable shield performance, install cable grounding at one point per shielded link and use shielded jacks or connectors designed for S/FTP cable. Observe manufacturer bend radius and avoid excessive pulling tension during installation. Use cable testers after termination to verify Cat6 performance and identify any pair or shielding issues.
