Networking cable LOGON APR6A150R Cat6a S/FTP (S‑STP) 15 m, RJ‑45, red

LOGON APR6A150R Cat6a S/FTP (S‑STP) 15 m is a shielded network patch cable finished in red with RJ‑45 connectors at both ends. Engineered for high-speed Ethernet and 10 Gigabit links, this Cat6a cable uses pair foil shielding with an overall braid to minimise crosstalk and electromagnetic interference. The cable is suitable for structured cabling, patch panels and direct device connections in environments where signal integrity and reduced interference are required.

Advantages

The S/FTP (S‑STP) construction provides both individual pair foil shielding and an overall braided shield, improving protection against external EMI and near‑end crosstalk compared with unshielded cables. At 15 metres length with standard RJ‑45 terminations on each end, the cable supports high bandwidth applications including 10GBASE‑T while offering a flexible form factor for routing in racks, conduits and under‑floor channels. The red jacket allows quick visual identification within dense cabling installations.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in data centres and server rooms
• Office and enterprise network patching between switches and workstations
• Structured cabling horizontal runs and patch panels
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference (industrial areas, near power equipment)

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (individual pair foil + overall braided shield)
• Length: 15 m
• Connectors: RJ‑45 male to RJ‑45 male (straight)
• Colour: Red
• Designed for: High‑speed Ethernet including 10GBASE‑T

How to use

Connect one RJ‑45 connector to the network port on a switch, router or server and the other connector to the target device or patch panel. Ensure connector latches are fully engaged to maintain proper contact. For shielded installations, verify that connected equipment and patch panels provide an adequate grounding path for the cable shield to benefit from EMI protection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and keep separation from high‑voltage power cables where possible.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6a S/FTP cable for critical links where interference reduction and consistent high throughput are required. For optimal performance, maintain bends above the cable's minimum bend radius, and use shielded connectors and grounded patch panels in end‑to‑end shielded topologies.
