Networking cable Flexline FL31-29025 Cat6a U/FTP (STP) 1 m RJ-45 gold-plated contacts

Flexline FL31-29025 is a 1 m Cat6a network cable with U/FTP (STP) shielding and RJ-45 connectors on both ends. Designed for high-speed wired connections, the cable supports data transfer rates up to 10 000 Mbit/s and is suitable for demanding LAN environments where reduced interference and reliable signal transmission are required. Gold-plated contacts improve corrosion resistance and ensure stable contact quality over time.

Advantages

The U/FTP (STP) shielding minimizes electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, improving signal integrity in congested cable environments. Cat6a performance enables 10 Gigabit Ethernet over short distances, while the compact 1 m length reduces excess cabling in rack, switch and desktop setups. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts provide enhanced durability and consistent electrical contact for long-term reliability.

Suitable for

• High-speed LAN and office network connections
• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch links in datacentres or server rooms
• Desktop PC and workstation connections requiring stable 1 Gbps–10 Gbps links
• Home networks where shielded cabling is needed to reduce EMI from nearby electronics

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: U/FTP (overall foil with individually foiled pairs — STP)
• Connector type: RJ-45 on both ends
• Contact plating: Gold-plated contacts
• Length: 1 m
• Maximum data rate: up to 10 000 Mbit/s (10 Gbps)
• Typical use: Ethernet 10/100/1000/10GBASE-T

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to the network port of your switch, router, or network interface card and the other connector to the corresponding device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. For optimal performance keep the cable free from tight bends, sharp kinks or heavy compression and avoid running the cable parallel to high-power electrical lines to reduce potential interference.

Recommendations

For best results in high-density installations, use shielded patch panels and properly grounded network equipment to maintain the effectiveness of the U/FTP shielding. Replace cables that show visible damage to the jacket or connectors to avoid degraded performance.
