Network patch cable LOGON TCF66F003BL Cat6a F/UTP (FTP) Black, 0.3 m, RJ-45–RJ-45

LOGON TCF66F003BL is a black Cat6a network patch cable with F/UTP (FTP) shielding and a 0.3 m length. The cable is fitted with shielded RJ-45 connectors on both ends and is built to meet Cat6a performance requirements for high-speed Ethernet links. It is intended for short connections between switches, patch panels and network devices where a compact, shielded cable is needed to maintain signal integrity and reduce electromagnetic interference.

Advantages

The foil-shielded F/UTP construction provides improved protection against external electromagnetic interference compared with unshielded alternatives, helping to preserve signal quality in electrically noisy environments. The 26/7 stranded conductor format and 100 ohm characteristic impedance support reliable transmission at Cat6a frequencies. Short 0.3 m length reduces cable clutter in rack and patch panel installations while maintaining plug-and-play usability through standard RJ-45 connectors and EIA/TIA 568 compatibility.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections in server rooms and network racks
• Connecting switches to patch panels or adjacent network devices
• Places where shielded cabling is required to reduce interference
• Tidy, space-constrained installations requiring a short, robust cable

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: F/UTP (foil-shielded pairs with overall drain)
• Conductor: 4 x 2 AWG 26/7 stranded twisted pairs
• Characteristic impedance: 100 ohm
• Connectors: RJ-45 male to RJ-45 male, shielded
• Sheath material: PVC
• Length: 0.3 m
• Colour: Black
• Standards: conforms to EIA/TIA 568 wiring

How to use

Ensure both network ports support the intended Ethernet speed and, if applicable, are properly grounded when using shielded cabling. Insert each RJ-45 plug into the corresponding port until the latch clicks to secure the connection. For short patch links, route the cable to avoid kinks and sharp bends; maintain the natural curvature of the cable and avoid excessive strain on the connectors. No additional configuration is required for basic link establishment beyond standard network settings on connected devices.

Recommendations

Use this 0.3 m LOGON Cat6a F/UTP patch cable for short, shielded links inside racks and patch panels where interference suppression and minimal cable length are important. Verify proper grounding of shielded systems and avoid running the cable alongside high-voltage power lines to preserve optimal signal performance.
