Networking Cable Dexlan 858738 2m Cat6a S/FTP Black

The Dexlan 858738 2m Cat6a S/FTP networking cable is designed for high-speed wired connections between network devices. With Cat6a specification and S/FTP shielding, this 2-metre cable supports reliable data transmission and reduced electromagnetic interference. The cable has RJ-45 connectors on both ends and comes in a black finish that suits both home and office environments.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding provides protection against both overall electromagnetic interference and individual pair crosstalk, improving signal integrity over longer runs. The Cat6a standard enables higher bandwidth and supports applications that require 10 Gigabit Ethernet at appropriate distances. The 2 m length offers flexibility for typical desk-to-switch or patch-panel connections while the RJ-45 connectors ensure compatibility with standard network ports. The black jacket offers a discreet appearance for visible installations.

Key specifications

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of your device and the other into the switch, router, or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click to establish a secure mechanical and electrical connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and avoid running it parallel to large power cables for extended distances to reduce potential interference. For fixed installations, secure the cable with appropriate clips or cable ties while maintaining the cable's bend radius.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6a S/FTP cable for short to medium runs where higher bandwidth and improved shielding are required. For optimal performance, verify network equipment supports required speeds and avoid excessive bending or crushing of the cable during installation.
