Networking Cable Helos 333085 7.5m Cat6a S/FTP RJ-45 Blue Yellow

The Helos 333085 7.5m Cat6a S/FTP RJ-45 Blue Yellow networking cable is a shielded twisted-pair Ethernet cable designed for demanding wired connections. Compliant with Cat6a performance, the cable supports high transfer speeds and reduced crosstalk thanks to its S/FTP shielding and high-quality RJ-45 connectors with gold plating. The dual-colour jacket (blue and yellow) provides easy visual identification in patch panels and cable runs, while the 7.5 m length allows flexible placement between devices.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction combines an overall shield with individually foil-shielded pairs to minimise electromagnetic interference and improve signal integrity in environments with multiple adjacent cables or electronic equipment. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure stable contact and corrosion resistance for long-term use. Cat6a specification provides headroom for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over the recommended distance and helps maintain consistent performance for high-bandwidth applications.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections in office and home networks
• Connecting network switches, routers, and patch panels
• High-bandwidth workstations for video editing, large file transfers, and servers
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference from nearby equipment

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall shield + individually foil-shielded pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Connector plating: Gold-plated contacts
• Length: 7.5 m
• Rated data transfer: up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Colour: Blue and Yellow jacket

How to use

Route the Helos Cat6a cable between network devices ensuring the connectors are fully inserted into RJ-45 ports until they click. Avoid sharp bends and kinks; maintain the cable bend radius recommended for Ethernet cables to preserve signal quality. When used with patch panels or keystone jacks, align the clip orientation as required and secure the cable to prevent strain on the connector. For permanent installations, consider using cable management such as ties or trays to keep runs organised and reduce mechanical stress.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid running the cable parallel and close to mains power lines or large electrical equipment. Use the cable within its length rating for 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications and verify connectors and ports are free of dust and debris before connection. Colour-coded jackets can help maintain tidy infrastructure and speed up troubleshooting in multi-cable environments.
