Networking Cable ROLINE CAT.6a S/FTP Blue 5 m

ROLINE CAT.6a S/FTP patch cable, 5 m, blue. This prepared networking cable features fully screened twisted pairs and RJ-45 connectors on both ends, designed for reliable high-speed data transmission in professional and home setups. The cable complies with Cat6a standards and uses a 4-pair stranded copper conductor with complete braid shielding and pair-level aluminium-clad polyester foil to reduce electromagnetic interference.

Advantages

The cable provides S/FTP (S‑STP) shielding for improved noise immunity and high-quality gold-plated RJ-45 plugs for stable contact. Its moulded kink protection increases durability while the flexible construction allows narrow bending. Contact assignment is 1:1 according to the EIA/TIA 568 standard, and the product uses stranded copper wire for reliable signal transport.

Suitable for

• Connecting network devices in office and home LANs
• High-speed Ethernet links up to Cat6a performance
• Connections requiring reduced electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Product: ROLINE CAT.6a S/FTP patch cord, Component Level
• Length: 5 m
• Cable standard: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (S‑STP) — overall braid plus foil-shielded pairs
• Conductor: 4-pair stranded copper
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Contact setting: 1:1 (EIA/TIA 568)
• Sheath: LSOH
• Colour: Blue

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of a network device (switch, router, PC) and the other connector into the corresponding port on the opposite device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted and clicks are engaged. Route the cable to avoid excessive twisting or tight bends; the flexible design accommodates narrow paths but maintain minimum bend radius where possible. No special termination is required as the cable is pre-assembled.

Recommendations

Use this CAT.6a S/FTP cable for Ethernet installations that require enhanced shielding and Cat6a performance. For permanent in-wall installations verify local building codes for LSOH suitability and avoid running alongside high-voltage power lines to minimize interference.
