Network Cable ROLINE S/FTP (PiMF) Patch Cord RJ-45 Cat6 7m Grey

Patch cable for networking connections between devices. The ROLINE S/FTP (PiMF) Patch Cord RJ-45 Cat6 7m Grey is a Cat6 patch lead with screened RJ-45 connectors on both ends, designed for reliable wired Ethernet connections over a 7 m length. The cable uses four-pair stranded copper conductors with pairwise aluminium-clad polyester foil and a complete braid shield to minimise electromagnetic interference, and the connectors are fitted with gold-plated contacts and moulded kink protection for durability and flexible routing.

Advantages

The S/FTP (PiMF) construction provides strong protection against crosstalk and external interference while maintaining signal integrity over typical local-area network distances. Gold-plated contacts ensure stable contact resistance and corrosion resistance. The moulded kink protection and flexible sheath allow easy installation through tight routes without damaging the cable. Connector wiring follows the EIA/TIA 568 1:1 contact standard for straightforward plug-and-play compatibility.

Suitable for

• Wired Ethernet connections between computers, switches, routers and network devices
• Office and home network patching where Cat6 performance is required
• Environments requiring enhanced shielding to reduce EMI and crosstalk
• Patch panels and wall sockets with RJ-45 ports

Key specifications

• Length: 7 m
• Category: Cat6
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid + foil-shielded pairs, PiMF)
• Conductor: 4-pair stranded copper
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Colour: Grey
• Contact configuration: 1:1 (EIA/TIA 568)

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to the network device (switch, router or computer) and the other RJ-45 connector to the corresponding port on the destination device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and excessive pulling; the moulded kink protection helps protect the connector area but standard cable handling rules still apply. For best performance, avoid running the cable in parallel with high-power electrical lines when possible.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6 S/FTP patch cord for short to medium-length Ethernet links (up to 7 m) where reduced interference and reliable RJ-45 connections are required; replace if connectors are visibly damaged or if performance degrades.
