Networking Cable ROLINE Cat.6a S/FTP Blue 7 m 21.15.2846

S/FTP patch cord Cat.6A, component level, LSOH, blue, 7 m. The ROLINE Cat.6a S/FTP networking cable is a 7-metre shielded twisted-pair patch cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, designed for high-speed Ethernet links and professional network installations. It uses four pairs of stranded copper conductors and full braid shielding with individually foil-shielded pairs to reduce crosstalk and electromagnetic interference.

Advantages

The cable is a prepared patch cable for networking connections between devices, featuring double shielding (S/FTP) and screened RJ-45 connectors on both ends. It is durable thanks to moulded kink protection and has a flexible jacket suitable for narrow bends. High-quality plugs include gold-plated contacts and contact wiring follows the 1:1 EIA/TIA 568 standard. The construction uses 4-pair stranded copper wire with aluminium-clad polyester foil around each pair and complete braid shielding.

Suitable for

• 10 Gbps Ethernet links in offices and server rooms
• High-performance LAN connections between switches, routers and workstations
• Structured cabling environments requiring shielded Cat6a cabling
• Installations where LSOH jackets are required

Key specifications

• Cable standard: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid + individually foil-shielded pairs)
• Connector 1 / Connector 2: RJ-45 / RJ-45
• Cable length: 7 m
• Conductor: 4-pair stranded copper
• Contacts: gold plated
• Jacket: LSOH (low smoke zero halogen)

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network device (switch, router or network port on a PC) and the other plug to the corresponding port on the second device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable avoiding tight bends and strong mechanical stress; use cable management accessories if required. The cable adheres to the EIA/TIA 568 pinout (1:1) for straightforward installation.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable parallel and close to high-power electrical lines. Use shielded patch panels and properly grounded equipment in installations that require the S/FTP shielding to be effective.
