Lindy 45374 networking cable Blue 1 m Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP)

The Lindy Cat.6 (A) SSTP RJ-45 1m Blue is a shielded Ethernet patch cable designed for high-speed network connections. It supports bandwidths up to 500 MHz and complies with ISO/IEC 11801 specifications, enabling reliable operation with 10GBase-T networks. The cable is terminated with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, features gold-plated contacts for corrosion resistance, and is finished in a blue LSZH sheath that reduces smoke and eliminates halogen emissions.

Advantages

Shielded S/FTP construction (braid overall shield with foil-shielded pairs) reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, supporting stable 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance. Gold-plated contacts provide durable, corrosion-resistant connections. The snagless connector design protects the latch during installation and removal. The LSZH (low smoke zero halogen) jacket lowers smoke output and avoids toxic halogen release, making the cable suitable for use in public and enclosed spaces.

Suitable for

• 10GBase-T network links in data centres and server rooms
• Office and home network connections between switches, routers, and workstations
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference
• Installations in public buildings or confined spaces where low smoke and halogen-free materials are preferred

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network port on your devices (switch, router, network interface card). Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; the snagless strain relief helps protect the connector during handling. For optimal performance, keep the cable away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference and avoid tightly bundling with power cables.

Recommendations

Use this Cat.6A SSTP cable for short to medium-length links where 10 Gigabit performance and EMI protection are required. For permanent installations, verify cable routing and secure strain relief at connection points. Do not exceed the manufacturer's bend radius and avoid crushing or kinking the cable to maintain signal integrity.
