Lindy 47364 networking cable Red 2 m Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP)

The Lindy 47364 RJ-45 Cat6 2m Red networking cable is a shielded Ethernet patch cable engineered for reliable data transmission in wired networks. Built to Cat6 performance and S/FTP shielding, this 2 metre cable supports gigabit Ethernet speeds and reduces electromagnetic interference. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors provide consistent contact and corrosion resistance, while the red jacket makes the cable easy to identify in patch panels and structured cabling runs.

Advantages

The cable's Cat6 specification ensures support for 10/100/1000Base-T(X) networks and improved headroom for higher-frequency signals compared with lower category cables. S/FTP shielding combines overall foil with individually shielded pairs to reduce crosstalk and external interference in environments with multiple cables or nearby electrical equipment. Gold-plated RJ-45 plugs enhance conductivity and long-term contact reliability. The 2 m length offers a balance between reach and tidy cable management, and the red outer sheath provides visual distinction for easy tracing and organization.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers in home and office networks
• Patch panel and rack cabling in small to medium-sized installations
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference where shielded cabling is preferred
• Setups requiring color-coded cables for network segmentation and maintenance

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6
• Length: 2 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually shielded pairs)
• Supported cabling standard: 10/100/1000Base-T(X)
• Outer colour: Red

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector firmly into the corresponding network port on your device and network equipment until the plug clicks into place. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and pinching points; maintain a gentle bend radius to preserve internal pair geometry. For best performance, keep the cable separated from high-voltage power lines and strong sources of electromagnetic noise. Use the red colour to mark specific segments or functions in your cabling layout for simpler identification during installation and maintenance.

Recommendations

For consistent gigabit performance, use this Cat6 S/FTP cable for direct device-to-switch connections or in patch panel-to-switch runs. Avoid excessive cable stretching and sharp bends; secure with Velcro ties rather than metal clips to prevent conductor deformation. In long multi-segment installations, combine this cable with compatible shielded ports and patch panels to maintain shielding continuity.
