Lindy 47368 networking cable Red 10 m Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP)

The Lindy 47368 networking cable is a Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP) patch cable with a 10 m length and RJ-45 connectors. Designed for 10/100/1000Base-T(X) Ethernet, this red cable provides stable, shielded transmission for wired LAN connections where reduced electromagnetic interference and consistent gigabit speeds are required. Gold-plated contacts on the RJ-45 plugs help maintain reliable connections and resist corrosion, while the distinctive red jacket makes the cable easy to identify in structured cabling or desktop setups.

Advantages

The shielded S/FTP construction minimises crosstalk and external interference, supporting reliable data transfer across the full Cat6 bandwidth. The 10 m length offers flexibility for connecting devices across rooms or within server cabinets without the need for additional couplers. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure low contact resistance and long-term mechanical durability. The red outer sheath improves visibility for cable management and simplifies tracing in mixed-colour installations.

Suitable for

• Wired gigabit Ethernet connections in home networks
• Office desktop connections and networked printers
• Patch panels and switch-to-switch links within racks
• Environments where reduced EMI and crosstalk are required

Key specifications

• Length: 10 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Supported standards: 10/100/1000Base-T(X)
• Colour: Red

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (PC, switch, router or patch panel) and the other end to the corresponding port on the network equipment. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and tight kinks; maintain gentle curves and avoid running parallel to high-voltage power lines when possible to minimise interference. For permanent installations, use appropriate cable management such as clips, ties or trunking to prevent strain on connectors.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat6 S/FTP cable for gigabit Ethernet links up to its specified length and avoid excess bending near connector ends. When installing in areas with potential electromagnetic interference, keep the cable shielded termination intact and maintain separation from mains power cables. Colour-coding with the red jacket is useful for identifying uplinks or specific network segments during maintenance.
