Lindy 47160 networking cable Red 0.3 m Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP)

The Lindy 47160 Networking Cable is a 0.3 m Cat6 S/FTP patch cable with RJ-45 connectors and gold-plated contacts. Designed for structured cabling and short-range connections, this red cable supports 10/100/1000Base-T(X) networks and provides data transfer rates up to 1000 Mbit/s. The S/FTP (shielded/foiled twisted pair) construction reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, making it suitable for installations where signal integrity is important.

Advantages

The cable’s Cat6 specification and S/FTP shielding deliver improved performance and lower error rates in crowded cable environments. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts ensure reliable mating and corrosion resistance for consistent connectivity. The short 0.3 m length is practical for patch panels, switch-to-switch connections in racks, or connecting devices in tight spaces while the red jacket provides clear visual identification in cable management scenarios.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between network equipment (switches, patch panels, routers)
• Rack and cabinet cable management where short, visible cables are required
• Workstation or device uplinks in dense networking environments
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference and stable Gigabit Ethernet links

How to use

Inspect both RJ-45 connectors and the cable jacket for damage before installation. Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network device port (switch, patch panel, router, or NIC) and the other connector into the corresponding port on the paired device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted and latched. Use the 0.3 m length for short runs inside racks, between adjacent ports, or where minimal cable slack is required. Avoid sharp bends near the connectors and do not strain the cable to prevent damage to the internal pairs and shielding.

Recommendations

For best performance, maintain proper cable separation from high-voltage lines and large power supplies. Use this Lindy Cat6 S/FTP cable for Gigabit Ethernet connections in short, controlled routes; when longer runs or different installation conditions are required, select an appropriate cable length and category. Label the red cable in your documentation or on patch panels to simplify maintenance and troubleshooting.
