Networking Cable LogiLink C6A072S RJ-45 Cat6a 5m Grey

The LogiLink C6A072S RJ-45 Cat6a 5m Grey is a shielded Ethernet cable designed for 10GBase-T networks. With a 5 meter length and RJ-45 connectors on both ends, the cable supports high-speed data transfer while the S/FTP (shielded foil twisted pair) construction reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. The grey jacket provides a neutral appearance suitable for visible installations in home and office environments.

Advantages

The Cat6a specification and 10GBase-T compatibility enable stable transmission at higher frequencies and bandwidths compared with lower-category cables. S/FTP shielding delivers improved protection against alien crosstalk and external noise sources, which helps maintain signal integrity over the 5 m run. The RJ-45 connectors ensure broad compatibility with routers, switches, network interface cards and patch panels. The cable’s flexible jacket and standardized connectors make installation straightforward in racks, wall outlets or desktop setups.

Suitable for

• High-speed local area network connections (up to 10 Gbps)
• Wired desktop and server connections in home or office
• Patch panels and structured cabling in small to medium-sized networks
• Environments where shielding is required to minimise interference

Key specifications

• Cable length: 5 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Cabling technology: 10GBase-T (Cat6a)
• Shielding: S/FTP (shielded foil twisted pair)
• Colour: Grey

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (router, switch or network card) and the other end to the target device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks to establish a reliable connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference; keep some slack for maintenance and movement. For structured installations, follow standard cable management practices and label both ends if multiple runs are present.

Recommendations

Use the cable for runs up to 5 m within the same room or between adjacent cabinets to retain full Cat6a performance. Avoid tightly coiling the cable and maintain minimum bend radius to prevent signal degradation. When installing near power lines or heavy electrical equipment, keep separation or use additional shielding to minimise potential interference.
