Networking Cable Helos CAT6 S/FTP (PIMF) 3m White

The Helos CAT6 S/FTP (PIMF) 3m White networking cable is a 3-metre Ethernet patch cable designed for Gigabit Ethernet connections. It uses CAT6 specification with S/FTP (overall foil shield plus individually foil-wrapped pairs, PIMF) shielding to minimise electromagnetic interference and maintain signal integrity. Both ends are terminated with RJ-45 connectors, offering straightforward plug-and-play connection for routers, switches, network cards and other Ethernet-enabled devices. The white jacket provides a neutral aesthetic suitable for visible installations in homes and offices.

Advantages

The cable's S/FTP shielding reduces crosstalk and external interference, improving reliability in environments with multiple network runs or nearby electrical equipment. Conformant with 10/100/1000Base-T(X) cabling technology, it supports Gigabit speeds for typical local area network use. The 3 m length balances flexibility and minimal excess cable in desktop and shelf-mounted setups. Standard RJ-45 terminations ensure compatibility with the vast majority of Ethernet ports.

Suitable for

• Wired connections between computers and network switches or routers
• Connecting network-attached storage (NAS) devices
• Home office and small business network setups
• Patch panel to switch links in server cabinets and racks

Key specifications

• Cable type: CAT6 S/FTP (PIMF) — overall foil shield with individually foil-wrapped pairs
• Length: 3 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 on both ends
• Cabling technology: 10/100/1000Base-T(X) — supports Gigabit Ethernet
• Outer colour: White

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of your network device (computer, switch, router or NAS) and the other connector into the corresponding port of the network endpoint. Ensure connectors click into place to confirm a secure physical connection. For best signal performance, avoid tight bends near the connector ends and do not run the cable parallel and close to mains power lines for extended lengths.

Recommendations

Use this CAT6 S/FTP cable for short to medium-length indoor runs where reduced interference is important. Route the cable along cable management channels or behind furniture to maintain a tidy installation. For permanent installations in cabinets or raised-floor environments, verify bend radius and strain relief at termination points to prevent connector damage.
