Networking Cable Helos CAT6 S/FTP (PIMF) 30m Magenta

The Helos CAT6 S/FTP (PIMF) 30m Magenta is a 30-meter Ethernet cable designed for reliable gigabit networking. Featuring individually shielded pairs with an overall braided shield (S/FTP) and RJ-45 connectors on both ends, this cable is suitable for structured cabling in home and office environments. Its magenta jacket provides easy visual identification when routing multiple cables in patch panels, racks, or behind workstations.

Advantages

This CAT6 S/FTP cable offers improved protection against electromagnetic interference and crosstalk due to its paired-in-metal-foil (PIMF) construction combined with an overall shield. The result is stable high-speed data transmission compatible with 10/100/1000Base-T(X) networks. The pre-terminated RJ-45 connectors allow immediate plug-and-play installation without the need for on-site termination tools. The 30 m length covers longer runs between devices and distribution points while the coloured jacket simplifies identification and cable management.

Suitable for

• Gigabit Ethernet connections between switches, routers and endpoints
• Home networking and home office setups
• Office patching and horizontal cabling
• Temporary installations and event networking where quick identification is needed

Key specifications

• Cable length: 30 m
• Cabling technology: 10/100/1000Base-T(X)
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with individually foil‑shielded pairs / PIMF)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Colour: Magenta

How to use

Route the Helos CAT6 S/FTP cable between network devices such as switches, routers, patch panels or computers. Plug the RJ-45 connectors into the corresponding Ethernet ports until they click. Avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force during installation to preserve shielding integrity and maintain signal quality. For permanent installations, secure the cable along cable trays or runs using appropriate clips or ties, ensuring the jacket is not compressed against sharp edges.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, keep this shielded CAT6 cable separated from strong power lines and large electrical equipment to reduce electromagnetic interference. When connecting to shielded network equipment, ensure proper grounding of shields at one end or both ends following your site’s grounding practices. Use the magenta colour to label and document the run for easier maintenance and troubleshooting.
