Networking Cable Lanberg PCF6A-10CU-0025-S RJ45 Cat6a 0.25m Grey

The Lanberg PCF6A-10CU-0025-S RJ45 Cat6a 0.25m grey is a short patch cable designed for high-speed network connections where space is limited. It conforms to the Cat6a standard and uses S/FTP shielding to minimise electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. The cable's compact 0.25 m length and grey jacket make it suitable for neat, short-distance links between equipment in racks, patch panels, switches and network interface ports.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding construction provides effective protection against external interference and reduces pair-to-pair crosstalk, supporting reliable data transmission at higher frequencies. The Cat6a specification allows for 10 Gbps Ethernet over shorter runs, and the copper-plated connector contacts ensure consistent electrical contact and signal integrity. The short 0.25 m length minimises cable clutter and signal loss in tight installations while the grey jacket offers a neutral appearance for professional environments.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between switch ports and patch panels in server racks
• Direct links between network devices located close together (e.g., VoIP phones, switches, NAS)
• Clean cable management in crowded equipment cabinets and test benches

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with individually foil-shielded pairs)
• Length: 0.25 m
• Connector type: RJ45
• Colour: Grey
• Contact plating: copper-plated contacts

How to use

Identify the two network ports to be connected and verify they support the required network speed. Insert each RJ45 connector fully into the corresponding port until the latch clicks. Ensure the cable is routed without sharp bends and avoid placing it under heavy mechanical stress. For best performance, keep the short cable run between devices rather than routing through long intermediate paths.

Recommendations

For optimal results use this Cat6a S/FTP patch cable for short-distance 10 Gbps links and within dense rack environments. Avoid tight bends at the connector ends and maintain separation from high-power cables where possible to preserve shielding effectiveness.
