Networking cable LOGON APR6A050G Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP) RJ-45–RJ-45 5 m green

LOGON APR6A050G is a 5 m Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP) patch cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends and a green outer jacket. Designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and high-speed LAN links, this cable combines individually foil-shielded twisted pairs with an overall braided shield to reduce electromagnetic interference and maintain stable signal integrity across short to medium runs. The cable uses standard 8P8C (RJ-45) plugs and a low-smoke, halogen-free (LSOH) jacket suitable for indoor installations where reduced smoke and toxic emissions are preferred.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction provides enhanced protection against crosstalk and external interference compared with unshielded cables, improving reliability for demanding network environments. The Cat6a specification supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet over typical horizontal cabling distances, while the 5 m length is convenient for patch panels, switches, and desktop connections without excess cable clutter. The green jacket allows easy visual identification in dense cable runs or colour-coded network setups.

Suitable for

• Patching between switches, patch panels and network devices in data cabinets
• Connecting routers, switches, network interface cards and NAS devices
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links within server rooms, offices and lab environments
• Colour-coded installations where visual identification is needed

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector firmly into the corresponding network equipment port until the latch clicks. Use the 5 m LOGON Cat6a cable to link patch panels to switches, to connect a switch to a wall outlet, or to join a router to a network device. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and excessive tension; maintain bend radii recommended for Ethernet cables and avoid placing the cable parallel and close to power lines to minimize interference. For installations in cabinets, secure the cable with Velcro straps or cable management ties to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

For best performance, use this Cat6a S/FTP cable in shielded or grounded environments where possible, and pair it with compatible shielded connectors and patch panels. Do not exceed recommended bending radius or subject the cable to heavy mechanical stress. Replace the cable if outer jacket damage or connector deformation is observed.
