Microconnect MC-SFTP6A01 networking cable Grey 1 m Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP)

The MicroConnect MC-SFTP6A01 is a 1 m Cat6a patch cable designed for high-performance network connections. It supports data rates up to 10,000 Mbit/s and bandwidth suitable for demanding 10Gbit applications. The cable features S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and gold-plated RJ45 contacts for reliable connectivity. A grey jacket and meter markings on the boot make the cable easy to identify and install.

Advantages

The cable meets the Cat6a standard and is suitable for 10Gbit networking, offering up to 500 MHz bandwidth. S/FTP shielding minimises crosstalk and external interference, while gold-plated contacts and 50µ" RJ45 connectors improve signal transmission and durability. Latch protection helps prevent clip breakage and printed meter markings on the boot allow quick length identification.

Suitable for

• Server rooms and data centers requiring 10Gbit connections
• Office network cabling and patch panels
• High-bandwidth applications such as video streaming and large file transfers
• Home labs and pro-sumer network setups

How to use

Connect one RJ45 end to your network device (switch, router, NIC) and the other to the corresponding port on the patch panel or device. Ensure the connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Use the meter markings on the boot to confirm cable length during installation and route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong EMI. For permanent installations, secure the cable with appropriate clips or cable management accessories.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable parallel to power lines and maintain bend radius recommendations. Use the S/FTP Cat6a cable in environments that require 10Gbit throughput and where reduced interference is important. Inspect connectors periodically and replace the cable if any physical damage or connector wear is observed.
