Networking cable LOGON TCF66F100R Cat6a F/UTP (FTP) Red 10 m RJ-45–RJ-45

LOGON TCF66F100R Cat6a F/UTP (FTP) Red 10 m RJ-45–RJ-45 is a 10-metre shielded Ethernet patch cable designed for high-speed network links. The cable meets Cat6a performance requirements for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and uses foil shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference. Both ends are fitted with shielded RJ-45 male connectors and the cable is sheathed in PVC for mechanical protection and flexible routing in installations.

Advantages

The foil-shielded design (F/UTP) provides improved immunity to external noise compared with unshielded cables, helping to maintain signal integrity in environments with adjacent power lines or dense cabling. Conductor construction of 4 pairs, 26 AWG stranded (26/7) and 100 ohm impedance ensures compliance with EIA/TIA 568 wiring standards and stable transmission at elevated frequencies. The 10 m length and plug-and-play RJ-45 termination allow quick deployment in data centers, office LANs or home networks without additional termination tools.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links requiring Cat6a performance
• Shielded connections in offices, server rooms and data centers
• Patch cabling between switches, routers and wall outlets
• Home network backbones where reduced EMI is desired

• Color: Red
• Compliance: EIA/TIA 568 wiring standard
• Installation: Plug-and-play terminated patch cable

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to a network device such as a switch, router or network interface and the other end to a patch panel, wall socket or endpoint device. Ensure both connected devices support the intended network speed (up to 10 Gbps over Cat6a where supported) and that shielding is properly grounded at least at one end if required by installation practices. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and excessive pulling; maintain minimum bend radius as recommended for Cat6a cables to preserve performance.

Recommendations

For optimal performance in environments with potential electromagnetic interference, use shielded terminations and ensure the cable’s foil drain or connector shield is bonded to chassis ground. Avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines and keep a separation distance where possible. For permanent in-wall installations, verify local codes—this PVC-sheathed cable is intended for patching and horizontal runs rather than in-wall plenum-rated installations.
