Network Cable ROLINE S/FTP (PiMF) Patch Cord Cat.6 RJ-45 7.0m Yellow

ROLINE S/FTP (PiMF) Patch Cord Cat.6 RJ-45 7.0m Yellow is a shielded network patch cable designed for reliable data transmission between devices. The cable uses four-pair stranded copper conductors with complete braid shielding and pairs wrapped in aluminium-clad polyester foil, and it comes terminated with screened RJ-45 plugs on both ends. Contacts are configured 1:1 according to the EIA/TIA 568 standard and feature gold-plated contact surfaces for consistent connectivity. The moulded strain relief provides kink protection while the flexible jacket allows routing in confined spaces.

Advantages

Provides improved electromagnetic interference protection due to full braid shielding and foil-wrapped pairs (S/FTP). Gold-plated contacts and screened RJ-45 connectors ensure stable signal transfer and corrosion resistance. The flexible construction and moulded kink protection simplify installation in racks, patch panels and tight cable runs. Cable length and bright yellow jacket assist identification and organization.

Suitable for

• Network patching between switches, routers and patch panels
• Office and data center copper Ethernet links up to Cat6 performance
• Environments with moderate electromagnetic interference where shielded cabling is required

Key specifications

• Cable type: S/FTP (PiMF) Cat.6 patch cord
• Length: 7 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, screened
• Contacts: gold-plated, wiring 1:1 (EIA/TIA 568)
• Conductor: 4-pair stranded copper
• Shielding: complete braid + aluminium-clad polyester foil on pairs
• Colour: Yellow

How to use

Route the patch cord between the two network devices, ensuring both ends are fully inserted into the RJ-45 sockets until the connector latch engages. Avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling force; use the moulded strain relief to prevent kinking near the plugs. For best performance, connect shielded cable to properly grounded shielded ports or patch panels.

Recommendations

For optimal shielding effectiveness, terminate both ends to shielded RJ-45 ports and ensure the equipment chassis or patch panel provides a reliable earth connection. Do not exceed the recommended bend radius and avoid mechanical stress to maintain Cat6 performance.
