Lindy 47167 networking cable Red 7.5 m Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP)

The Lindy 47167 networking cable is a Cat6 Ethernet cable with a length of 7.5 m in a red jacket, designed for reliable wired network connections at speeds up to 1000 Mbit/s. It features S/FTP (S-STP) shielding and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors to ensure stable signal transmission and reduced electromagnetic interference in home, office, and data-centre environments.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable combines S/FTP (S-STP) shielding with gold-plated RJ-45 plugs to provide improved protection against crosstalk and external interference compared with unshielded cables. The 7.5 m length allows flexible placement between devices without the need for additional patching. The red outer jacket makes cable identification easy in multi-cable installations and helps maintain organized cabling runs. The cable supports 10/100/1000Base-T(X) networking standards for compatibility with common Ethernet devices.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs, switches and routers within an office or home network
• Linking networked printers or NAS devices to a local network
• Patch cabling in structured cabling racks and wall ports
• Environments where visual cable identification and reduced interference are needed

How to use

Inspect both RJ-45 connectors and the cable jacket for visible damage before installation. Connect one end to the Ethernet port of your device (PC, switch, router or NAS) and the other end to the corresponding network port. Ensure connectors click securely into place. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference. For permanent installations, use appropriate cable management such as trays or clips and avoid over-tightening around corners.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat6 cable within typical Gigabit Ethernet runs (up to 100 metres total for horizontal cabling) and keep shielded terminations properly grounded when integrating with other shielded infrastructure. Use the red colour to mark specific network segments or critical device connections for easier maintenance and troubleshooting.
