Network cable LANBERG PCF6A-10CC-0050-BK Cat6a F/UTP RJ-45 0.5 m Black

LANBERG PCF6A-10CC-0050-BK Cat6a F/UTP RJ-45 0.5 m Black is a short patch cable designed for reliable high-speed Ethernet connections in compact installations. The cable features Cat6a performance with foil-shielded twisted pairs (F/UTP) and RJ-45 connectors on both ends. Its 0.5 m length and black jacket make it suitable for tidy patching between switches, patch panels and devices where short runs are required, supporting gigabit and 10G-ready links over short distances while reducing electromagnetic interference.

Advantages

The F/UTP construction provides screening of the twisted pairs to lower susceptibility to external electromagnetic interference, improving signal integrity in environments with nearby power or data cables. The Cat6a specification supports higher bandwidth and reduced crosstalk compared with lower category cables, enabling reliable gigabit and short-range 10G connections. A compact 0.5 m length minimizes cable clutter and simplifies cable management in racks, desktop setups and confined spaces.

Suitable for

• Short patching between switches and patch panels
• Direct switch-to-device connections in server cabinets and racks
• Desktop and office setups where space is limited
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: F/UTP (foil shield around twisted pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 on both ends
• Cable length: 0.5 m
• Colour: Black

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet ports on your network devices until the latch clicks. Use this 0.5 m cable for short, direct connections where signal quality and minimal cable length are important. Ensure both connected ports support the required network speed (gigabit or 10G where applicable) and avoid excessive bending or crushing of the cable to maintain shielding effectiveness and performance.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, route the cable away from large power sources and heavy electrical equipment. Use the cable for short-distance links inside racks, patch panels and workstations; for longer runs select a suitably rated Cat6a cable of appropriate length. Inspect connectors for secure seating and replace the cable if the outer jacket or connector latch is damaged.
