Lindy 47180 networking cable Black 3 m Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP)

The Lindy 3m Cat.6A S/FTP networking cable provides a 3 m connection between Ethernet-enabled devices. Constructed with S/FTP shielding and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors, the cable is designed to support reliable wired networking with a nominal data transfer rate of 1000 Mbit/s. Its black outer jacket offers a discreet appearance suitable for home, office or equipment racks.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction combines an overall foil shield with individually foil-shielded pairs to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors help maintain consistent contact quality and resist corrosion. The 3 m length balances reach and reduced signal loss for typical desk-to-switch or equipment-to-switch connections. A robust outer jacket provides mechanical protection while keeping a neutral black finish that integrates into various installation environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs, laptops or printers to a network switch or router
• Linking networked AV equipment and media players in small installations
• Patch connections within office racks and patch panels

Key specifications

• Cable length: 3 m
• Cable category: Cat.6A
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually shielded pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Nominal data transfer rate: 1000 Mbit/s
• Colour: Black

How to use

Plug one gold-plated RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of your device and the other into the network switch, router or patch panel. Ensure connectors click into place to confirm a proper connection. For best performance, avoid tight bends near the connector ends and keep the cable clear of strong sources of electromagnetic interference. When routing through racks or cable trays, allow enough slack to prevent strain on connectors.

Recommendations

Use the Lindy Cat.6A S/FTP cable for short to medium runs where reduced interference and stable Gigabit-class performance are required. Do not exceed the cable's bend radius and avoid placing it in direct contact with high-voltage power lines to maintain signal integrity.
