Lindy 47355 networking cable Blue 0.3 m Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP)

The Lindy Cat.6 S/FTP RJ-45 3m Blue networking cable provides a shielded Ethernet connection for reliable high-speed data transmission over a 3 metre run. Built to the Cat6 specification, the cable uses S/FTP (screened foil twisted pair) shielding to reduce crosstalk and external interference, and fitted RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts to maintain consistent signal integrity. The cable’s blue jacket makes it easy to identify within structured cabling installations at home or in office environments.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding improves protection against electromagnetic interference and limits pair-to-pair crosstalk compared with unshielded alternatives, which helps maintain higher throughput and lower error rates. The gold-plated RJ-45 contacts resist corrosion and provide a stable connection in frequent plug/unplug scenarios. At 3 m length the cable offers flexibility for desk-to-switch or patch panel connections without excess slack. Compliance with Cat6 performance characteristics supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds over copper cabling.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs, printers or VoIP phones to network switches
• Patching between wall outlets and network equipment in small offices
• Home network connections between routers, modems and smart devices
• Temporary or permanent desk wiring where reduced interference is required

Key specifications

• Cable length: 3 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Cabling technology: 10/100/1000Base-T(X) compatible
• Shielding: S/FTP (screened foil over twisted pairs)
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Colour: Blue

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the device network port and the other into the switch, router or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch engages. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and high-EMI sources such as transformers or fluorescent fixtures; keep the cable untwisted near the connector to preserve performance. For permanent installations, secure the cable with appropriate cable clips or cable management to prevent strain on connectors.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat6 S/FTP cable for runs up to the intended length and avoid exceeding bend radius or subjecting the cable to continuous mechanical stress. When installing near potential sources of interference, maintain separation from power cabling or use additional conduit to preserve signal quality.
