Lindy 47626 networking cable Black 3 m Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP)

The Lindy 47626 RJ-45 Cat6a networking cable is a 3 m black U/UTP patch cable designed for high-speed wired connections. It supports 10GBase-T cabling technology and uses RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts to maintain stable signal transmission and resist corrosion. The U/UTP construction helps reduce alien crosstalk and electromagnetic interference, ensuring consistent throughput for demanding network environments at home or in the office.

Advantages

This Cat6a cable provides up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance over short distances, with gold-plated RJ-45 contacts for improved conductivity and long-term reliability. The unshielded over twisted-pair (U/UTP) design balances flexibility and interference reduction, while the 3 m length offers convenient reach between networking equipment without excess slack. The black jacket delivers a neutral appearance suitable for visible or concealed installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and patch panels in small office or home networks
• High-speed server-to-switch links within racks or network cabinets
• Workstation connections for data-heavy applications such as video conferencing and file transfers
• Temporary setups for events, testing labs or network troubleshooting

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Length: 3 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Cabling technology: 10GBase-T
• Shielding: U/UTP (unshielded with overall pair twisting to reduce interference)
• Colour: Black

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector firmly into the corresponding port on devices such as switches, routers or network interface cards until the latch clicks into place. Route the 3 m cable to avoid sharp bends and keep it away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference like large transformers or unshielded power cables. For best results, ensure both connected devices support Cat6a or 10GBase-T speeds and verify link activity via device indicators or network diagnostics.

Recommendations

Avoid running the cable parallel to mains power lines for extended distances to reduce potential interference. Use appropriate cable management such as clips or Velcro ties to prevent strain on connectors and to maintain signal integrity.
