Lindy 47417 networking cable Black 7.5 m Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP)

The Lindy 47417 Black 7.5m Cat6a S/FTP networking cable provides a reliable wired connection for devices requiring high-speed data transfer. Constructed to Cat6a standard with S/FTP (shielded foil twisted pair) design and fitted with gold-plated RJ-45 connectors, this 7.5 metre cable reduces crosstalk and electromagnetic interference while maintaining consistent signal quality. Its black jacket offers a discreet appearance suitable for both visible and concealed installations in home and office environments.

Advantages

The cable's Cat6a classification supports higher bandwidth and improved performance compared with legacy Ethernet cables. S/FTP shielding adds protection against external interference and minimizes near-end crosstalk, which is beneficial in environments with multiple networked devices or other electronic equipment. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors enhance contact reliability and resist corrosion, helping to preserve stable throughput over time.

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the network ports of the devices to be linked, ensuring a secure click into place. Use this cable to connect computers, switches, routers or other Ethernet-enabled equipment. Route the cable along cable management channels or through conduit where necessary to prevent strain on connectors and to maintain tidy installation. Avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling force to preserve cable integrity and signal performance.

Recommendations

For best performance, use this Cat6a S/FTP cable in installations where reduced interference and higher bandwidth are required. Keep cable runs within recommended lengths for structured cabling environments and avoid running the cable parallel and close to mains power lines. Periodically inspect connector seating and replace the cable if visible damage or persistent connection issues occur.
