LANBERG Cat6a S/FTP Ethernet cable PCF6A-10CC-1000-S, 10 m, Grey, CCA, 500 MHz, RJ-45

LANBERG PCF6A-10CC-1000-S Cat6a S/FTP 10 m RJ-45 Grey is a 10-meter network patch cable engineered for high-speed structured cabling. The cable uses Category 6a specifications with S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference, providing stable wired connections between switches, routers, network interfaces and other Ethernet-enabled devices. Both ends are terminated with female-standard RJ-45 connectors and the grey jacket offers a neutral, unobtrusive appearance suitable for home and office environments.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction combines an overall foil shield with individually shielded pairs, improving protection against crosstalk and external interference compared to unshielded alternatives. The Cat6a specification supports higher bandwidth and reduced alien crosstalk for reliable performance in gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications over short distances. A 10 m length gives flexibility for common patching scenarios while maintaining signal integrity through consistent manufacturing and quality connectors.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and patch panels in small office or home networks
• Desktop or workstation connections to network outlets
• Short-distance 1 Gbps and 10 Gbps Ethernet links within equipment racks or between adjacent rooms
• Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is required

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a (augmented)
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil + individually shielded pairs)
• Length: 10 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 on both ends
• Outer jacket colour: Grey
• Typical applications: Gigabit Ethernet, 10 Gigabit Ethernet (short runs), structured cabling

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of your switch, router or network interface and the other into the destination device. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; maintain gentle curves with a bend radius appropriate for patch cables. When used in shielded installations, ensure proper grounding of connected equipment and cable shields where applicable to achieve the intended interference protection.

Recommendations

For best results, avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines or sources of strong electromagnetic interference. Use this Cat6a S/FTP cable for short to medium patch runs up to 10 m and pair it with compatible, well-terminated networking hardware to preserve signal quality for gigabit and 10G links.
