Networking Cable Helos 120085 Magenta 2m Cat6a S/FTP

The Draka Helos 120085 Magenta 2m Cat6a S/FTP networking cable is a 2‑meter RJ‑45 patch cable designed for high‑speed data transmission and reduced electromagnetic interference. Built to the Cat6a standard with S/FTP shielding, the cable supports higher bandwidth and improved performance compared with lower category cables. Its magenta jacket provides clear visual identification in patch panels or cable runs while the molded connectors ensure a secure physical connection.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction combines an overall foil shield with individually shielded pairs to minimize crosstalk and external interference, improving signal integrity for demanding network environments. As a Cat6a cable, it is suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to the specified distance limits, offering consistent throughput for data center links, server connections and high‑performance workstations. The 2 m length balances reach and cable management needs and the RJ‑45 terminations are compatible with standard networking equipment.

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil + individually foil‑shielded pairs)
• Length: 2 m
• Connector type: RJ‑45 on both ends
• Conductor: twisted pair U/UTP pairs with individual foil shields (as per S/FTP construction)
• Color: Magenta
• Typical supported application: 10 Gigabit Ethernet at appropriate distances

How to use

Plug one RJ‑45 connector into the network port of a computer, switch or router and insert the other end into the corresponding port of the destination device. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks. Route the 2 m cable to avoid sharp bends, pinch points and sources of mechanical stress. For installations in patch panels or racks, use cable ties or Velcro straps to maintain orderly routing and prevent excessive tension on the connectors.
