Networking cable ROLINE CAT.6a S/FTP connector S-STP 7m Black

S/FTP Patch Cord Cat.6A, Component Level, LSOH, black, 7.5 m. The ROLINE CAT.6a S/FTP networking cable is a 7 m shielded twisted-pair patch cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, designed for connecting network devices and supporting high-bandwidth Ethernet applications. It features full braid shielding and individually foil-shielded pairs to reduce electromagnetic interference, a stranded 4-pair copper conductor, moulded kink protection and gold-plated contacts for reliable connections.

Advantages

The cable provides prepared double-shielded Twisted Pair construction with screened RJ-45 connectors on both ends and complete braid shielding for improved signal integrity. It is durable thanks to moulded kink protection, flexible for use in narrow bends, and fitted with high-quality plugs with gold-plated contacts. Contact wiring follows the EIA/TIA 568 1:1 standard. Construction consists of 4-pair stranded copper wire with pairs shielded by aluminium-clad polyester foil.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and patch panels in LAN installations
• Workstation and server connections requiring Cat6a performance
• High-bandwidth applications such as Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet over short runs
• Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is needed

Key specifications

• Cable standard: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (S‑STP) — overall braid plus foil-shielded pairs
• Length: 7 m (product listing indicates 7 m; header text also referenced 7.5 m)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Conductor: 4-pair stranded copper
• Jacket: LSOH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Colour: Black

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network ports on devices such as switches, routers, patch panels or networked computers. Ensure connectors are seated fully to establish contact. Route the cable without sharp kinks and avoid tight pinches; the moulded kink protection and flexible jacket allow routing in confined spaces. For installations requiring specified channel lengths or compliance testing, verify overall link length and perform appropriate network tests after installation.

Recommendations

Use this ROLINE CAT.6a S/FTP patch cable for short to medium-length runs inside racks, patch panels and work areas where shielding against electromagnetic interference is beneficial. Avoid running the cable parallel and close to high-voltage power lines to maintain optimal performance.
