InLine Patch Cable S/FTP PiMF Cat.6A halogen free 500MHz red 100m

The InLine Patch Cable S/FTP PiMF Cat.6A halogen free 500MHz red 100m is a high-performance network cable designed for professional cabling in data centers and server racks. Supporting data transfer rates up to 10 Gbit/s, this 100 m cable uses S/FTP (shielded Foiled Twisted Pair with overall braid) construction and is halogen-free for safer installation in enclosed environments. Both ends are fitted with RJ-45 connectors and the red jacket improves visibility within structured cabling systems.

Advantages

This Cat.6A S/FTP cable provides enhanced protection against electromagnetic interference thanks to individual foil shields around each pair plus an overall braid. The 500 MHz bandwidth and certification for 10 Gbit/s make it suitable for gigabit and 10-gigabit Ethernet applications. The halogen-free jacket reduces toxic fumes in the event of a fire, and the 100 m spool length allows continuous runs without joins when planning rack-to-rack or cabinet-to-cabinet connections.

Suitable for

• Data centers and server racks
• Structured cabling installations requiring 10 Gbit/s
• High-density network environments
• Patch panels and horizontal cabling

Key specifications

• Cable type: S/FTP PiMF (shielded foil twisted pair with overall braid)
• Category: Cat.6A
• Bandwidth: 500 MHz
• Data rate: up to 10 Gbit/s
• Length: 100 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 – RJ-45
• Colour: Red
• Halogen-free jacket

How to use

Measure the required run and route the cable through cable management pathways or trays to avoid sharp bends and sources of interference. Terminate each end into RJ-45 ports on patch panels, switches or devices ensuring connectors are fully seated. For long permanent links, verify continuity and test performance with appropriate cable certification tools to confirm Cat.6A and 10 Gbit/s performance.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, maintain proper bend radius, separate power and data cabling where possible, and use compatible Cat.6A-rated patch panels and connectors. Use the red colour to mark specific circuits or critical links within racks and replace damaged sections rather than attempting improvised repairs.
