Networking Cable EFB Elektronik RJ45 S/FTP Cat6 20 m Black

1 Gigabit Ethernet Cat.6 250 MHz patch cable with shielded RJ45 connectors and moulded strain relief boot. The cable uses S/FTP construction with four pairs of AWG27/7 conductors and PiMF (Pairs in Metal Foil) shielding, compatible with TIA/EIA 568B pinout and designed for low-smoke, halogen-free installations. It meets common flame retardant and emissions standards for safe use in confined spaces.

Advantages

The Cat.6 S/FTP design provides improved protection against electromagnetic interference compared to unshielded cables, supporting reliable 1 Gigabit Ethernet performance up to 250 MHz. Shielded RJ45 plugs (IEC 60603-7-5) ensure consistent connector shielding continuity. The LSZH (low smoke, halogen-free) sheath reduces toxic gas and smoke in case of fire, and the moulded strain relief with latch protection increases connector durability during installation and handling.

How to use

Connect each RJ45 plug to the corresponding network ports on devices or patch panels following the TIA/EIA 568B wiring standard. Ensure that metal shielding on connectors makes contact with the device chassis or shielded inlet to maintain effective grounding. Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid tight staples or compressive forces; the approximate outer diameter is 6.2 mm, so use compatible cable management. Do not exceed recommended bend radius specified by the equipment manufacturer.

Recommendations

For best performance, use this Cat.6 S/FTP patch cable in shielded network environments or where EMI is a concern. Verify that connected equipment supports shielded cabling and provide proper grounding. Inspect the moulded strain relief and connector latches after installation to ensure secure connections.
