Networking cable LOGON APR6A200B Cat6a S/FTP (S‑STP) Blue 20 m RJ‑45–RJ‑45

LOGON APR6A200B Cat6a S/FTP (S‑STP) Blue 20 m is a shielded Ethernet patch cable with RJ‑45 connectors on both ends. Engineered to meet Cat6a performance, this 20‑metre cable supports high‑speed wired Ethernet links between switches, routers, patch panels and workstations. The S/FTP (S‑STP) construction combines individually foil‑shielded twisted pairs with an overall braided drain to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, ensuring stable signal transmission in environments with adjacent cables or electronic equipment.

Advantages

The cable’s Cat6a rating provides performance for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over copper at appropriate channel lengths while the S/FTP shielding improves noise immunity compared with unshielded variants. With RJ‑45 connectors on both ends and a 20 m length, it offers flexible routing options for home and office networks without the need for intermediate patch points. The blue jacket makes physical identification simple in multi‑cable installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches and routers in LANs
• Patch panel to wall outlet or workstation connections
• High‑speed data links for servers and NAS devices within 20 m
• Environments with moderate electromagnetic interference requiring shielded cabling

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding type: S/FTP (individually foil‑shielded pairs with overall braid)
• Connector type: RJ‑45 male – RJ‑45 male
• Length: 20 m
• Color: Blue
• Application: Ethernet networking up to Cat6a performance

How to use

Connect one RJ‑45 plug to the network port on a switch, router or patch panel and the other plug to the target device such as a PC, NAS or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks and avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable that could impair performance. When routing the cable near sources of strong interference, orient the shielded cable to maintain continuity with grounded patch panels or shielded connectors where available.

Recommendations

For best results, use this shielded Cat6a cable in installations where end‑to‑end shielding continuity can be maintained (shielded connectors or grounded patch panels). Keep bend radius above the manufacturer’s recommended minimum (typically four times the cable diameter) and avoid running parallel to mains power cables for long distances to minimize residual interference.
