METZ CONNECT 1308450A33-E Cat.6A S/FTP Patch Cable, 10G, AWG26, Grey, 0.25m

Cat.6A patch cable delivering 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance in a compact 0.25 m length. The S/FTP shielding and AWG26 stranded copper conductors ensure reliable, high-speed data transmission with excellent protection against electromagnetic interference.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding (foiled twisted pairs plus overall braid) provides superior immunity to crosstalk and external noise, making it ideal for high-density installations. Supports PoE up to PoE++ for powering devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones. Grey PVC jacket is durable, flexible, and easy to route in tight spaces. Compact length reduces clutter and signal loss in patch panels and equipment racks.
