Lindy 0.5m RJ45 S/FTP LSZH Network Cable, Grey

Network Cable Lindy 0.5m RJ45 S/FTP LSZH Grey is a 0.5 m patch cable using Cat.7 S/FTP conductor construction with a low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) grey jacket and gold-plated RJ45 connectors. The cable supports operating frequencies up to 600 MHz, full braided and foil shielding for each pair and is designed for Ethernet standards up to 10GBase-T. It is manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801 and supplied individually in a polybag.

Advantages

The S/FTP (braided overall shield plus foil per pair) construction provides strong protection against electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, suitable for data centre and server-room environments. Gold-plated contacts offer corrosion-resistant, reliable connections over long service periods. The connector features a snagless strain-relief design to protect the latch during installation and removal. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and hazardous gas emission in case of fire.

Suitable for

• Server rooms and data centres
• Rack-mounted network and control cabinets
• 10GBase-T Ethernet connections
• High-interference or densely cabled environments

Key specifications

• Cable length: 0.5 m
• Conductor / shielding: Cat.7 S/FTP (braided overall shield + foil per pair)
• Rated frequency: up to 600 MHz
• Connectors: RJ45 – gold-plated contacts
• Jacket: LSZH (grey)
• Standards: manufactured and tested to ISO/IEC 11801

How to use

Plug RJ45 connectors into corresponding network ports on switches, routers or network interfaces. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks; the snagless strain relief protects the latch during handling. Use the 0.5 m length for short patching between adjacent ports in racks, patch panels or desktop equipment. Avoid sharp bends and kinks near the connector to preserve shielding integrity and signal performance.

Recommendations

For optimal performance in high-density or high-interference installations, route the cable with minimal bend radii, avoid running parallel to high-voltage power lines, and keep cable lengths appropriate for the link budget. Inspect gold-plated contacts periodically and replace the cable if the jacket or connectors show visible damage.
