Microconnect MC-SFTP6A005O networking cable Orange 0.5 m Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP)

The MicroConnect CAT6a Patch Cable (MC-SFTP6A005O) is a 0.5 m S/FTP networking cable with RJ-45 connectors designed for high-speed connections up to 10 Gbit/s and bandwidths up to 500 MHz. It features gold-plated contacts and 50µ" RJ45 connectors for improved signal transfer, S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference, latch protection to prevent clip breakage and meter markings on the boot for easy length identification. The cable comes in a bright orange color to help with visual cable management.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction provides strong protection against external interference, supporting stable high-speed data transmission. Gold-plated contacts and 50µ" connector plating improve contact reliability and reduce corrosion. Latch protection decreases the risk of accidental clip damage, and meter markings on the boot allow quick recognition of cable length during installation and maintenance.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbit Ethernet uplinks and server connections
• High-bandwidth workstation and switch connections (up to 500 MHz)
• Patching in data centers, server rooms and network racks
• Short-distance connections where compact cable routing is needed (0.5 m)

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6a
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Max data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall shield with individually shielded pairs)
• Connector plating: gold-plated contacts, 50µ" RJ45 connector plating
• Colour: Orange
• Weight: 0.019 kg

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (switch, router or NIC) and the other end to the corresponding port on the second device. Ensure latch protection is correctly seated to avoid stress on the connector clip. Use the cable for short patch runs, keeping bend radius within recommended limits for Cat6a to maintain performance.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, route the cable away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference and avoid tight bends. Use the orange colour to simplify identification in patch panels and keep cable runs short to match the 0.5 m length.
