Networking Cable Renkforce RF-3829260 15m Cat6a S/FTP

The Renkforce RF-3829260 15m Cat6a S/FTP networking cable delivers a high-performance wired connection for local area networks, workstations, servers, and network appliances. Constructed to Cat6a specifications with S/FTP shielding, this 15-metre cable supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is fitted with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. The grey jacket provides a neutral appearance suitable for office or home installations while the cable construction reduces crosstalk and electromagnetic interference for stable signal transmission.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding combines an overall foil shield with individually shielded pairs to minimise external electromagnetic interference and pair-to-pair crosstalk. Cat6a performance enables 10 Gigabit Ethernet over the full 15 m length, making it suitable for high-bandwidth applications. The pre-terminated RJ-45 plugs ensure simple plug-and-play installation and the durable outer jacket resists wear from regular handling and routing through cable channels.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections between switches, routers, and servers
• High-speed connections for NAS devices, workstations, and gaming PCs
• Structured cabling in offices, data cabinets, and media rooms
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference from nearby equipment

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a (augmented Category 6)
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually shielded twisted pairs)
• Length: 15 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 on both ends
• Maximum supported speed: up to 10000 Mbit/s (10 Gbps)
• Color: grey
• Typical use: horizontal and patch cabling for high-speed networks

How to use

Route the cable between network devices ensuring the path avoids sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference. Insert the RJ-45 connectors firmly into the corresponding ports until they click. For rack or cabinet installations, secure the cable along cable management channels to prevent strain on the connectors. If trimming or custom termination is required, perform it only with appropriate tools and by trained personnel, as this product is supplied pre-terminated.

Recommendations

For optimal 10 Gigabit performance, use the cable for connections of up to 15 m within the same structured cabling environment and pair it with Cat6a-compliant network equipment. Avoid tightly coiling the cable or running it in parallel with high-voltage power lines to reduce the risk of interference.
