Network cable LOGON APR6030R Cat6 S/FTP (S‑STP) Red, 3 m, RJ‑45 to RJ‑45

LOGON APR6030R Cat6 S/FTP (S‑STP) Red, 3 m, RJ‑45 to RJ‑45 is a 3-metre patch cable designed for Gigabit Ethernet and structured cabling in home and office environments. The cable features four individually shielded pairs plus an overall braided shield to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. With RJ‑45 connectors on both ends and Cat6 performance, it supports high-speed data transfer for short-distance connections between routers, switches, wall outlets and networked devices.

Advantages

The S/FTP (S‑STP) construction combines foil shielding for each twisted pair with an overall braided shield, improving noise immunity in environments with multiple electronic devices. The 26 AWG conductor size balances flexibility and signal integrity for patching applications. A red outer jacket provides clear visual identification in bundled cable runs or patch panels. The cable is suitable for Gigabit Ethernet and offers performance consistent with Cat6 specifications for short patch segments.

Suitable for

• Connecting routers, switches and modems in home and small office networks
• Patching between wall ports and patch panels or network equipment
• Short horizontal runs in structured cabling and equipment racks
• Environments requiring improved protection against EMI and crosstalk

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6
• Shielding: S/FTP (foil‑shielded pairs + overall braided shield)
• Conductor gauge: 26 AWG, 4 pairs
• Length: 3 m
• Connector type: RJ‑45 male to RJ‑45 male
• Jacket colour: Red
• Sheath material: LSOH (low smoke zero halogen)

How to use

Plug one RJ‑45 connector into the network port of a router, switch or wall outlet and the other RJ‑45 connector into the target device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Use the 3 m length for short patch runs, between adjacent racks, or to connect devices within the same room. Avoid tight bends near the connectors and keep the cable away from high‑power electrical wiring to maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat6 S/FTP cable for Gigabit Ethernet links and short structured cabling segments. When installing in rack or cabinet environments, label both ends and route the cable to avoid sharp bends; maintain separation from mains power cables to minimize EMI. The LSOH jacket makes it suitable for indoor installations where low smoke and halogen emissions are required.
