Network cable LANBERG PCF6A-10CC-2000-BK Cat6a S/FTP RJ-45 20 m Black

LANBERG PCF6A-10CC-2000-BK Cat6a S/FTP RJ-45 20 m Black is a 20-meter network patch cable designed for Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet environments. The cable uses Cat6a construction with S/FTP shielding and RJ-45 terminations to provide reduced electromagnetic interference and improved signal integrity over longer runs compared with lower-category cables. The black outer jacket gives the cable a discreet, professional appearance suitable for visible installations in offices and data closets.

Advantages

The S/FTP design combines overall screening with individually shielded twisted pairs to limit crosstalk and external EMI, supporting stable high-speed data transmission. Cat6a performance allows reliable operation in 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, 1000BASE-T and 10GBASE-T networks over short to medium distances. Pre-terminated RJ-45 connectors ensure compatibility with switches, routers, patch panels and network interface cards. The 20 m length reduces the need for intermediate patch points and helps maintain tidy cable runs in larger rooms.

Suitable for

• Office and home network connections between devices and switches
• Patch panel to switch connections in network cabinets
• High-speed workstation links and server uplinks
• Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is required

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually shielded pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Length: 20 m
• Colour: Black

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network device (PC, switch, router or patch panel) and the other plug to the corresponding port on the remote device. Ensure connectors are fully seated and locked into the ports. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference; keep separation from power cables where possible. For permanent installations, secure the cable along cable trays or racks using appropriate fasteners without compressing the jacket.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat6a S/FTP cable in conjunction with shielded network equipment or properly grounded racks when operating in environments with significant EMI. Avoid excessive bending radius and repeated flexing; store and handle the cable to prevent kinks. For runs longer than 20 m to reach 10GBASE-T performance, consult link budget and infrastructure requirements.
