Networking Cable ROLINE CAT.6a S/FTP Red 7 m

ROLINE CAT.6a S/FTP patch cord, 7 m, red. This prepared networking cable with screened RJ-45 connectors on both ends is designed for reliable high-speed data transmission in structured cabling and device-to-device connections. The cable construction includes four pairs of stranded copper conductors, full braid shielding and foil shielding around each pair (S/FTP), and gold-plated contacts for stable signal transfer.

Advantages

The cable provides full S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, supporting higher performance up to Cat6a specifications. Its moulded kink protection and flexible stranded conductor design ensure durability and easy routing in confined spaces. Connectors are high quality with gold-plated contacts and follow the EIA/TIA 568 1:1 pinout for straightforward plug-and-play installation.

Suitable for

• Device-to-device Ethernet connections (RJ-45 to RJ-45)
• High-speed network segments requiring Cat6a performance (up to 10 Gbps)
• Environments where reduced EMI is important (shielded installations)
• Cabling runs that need flexible routing and kink protection

Key specifications

• Brand: ROLINE
• Standard: Cat6a (Component Level)
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid + foil around each pair)
• Conductors: 4-pair stranded copper
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts, 1:1 EIA/TIA 568

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of your device and the other into the switch, router or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid placing it alongside strong power sources to maintain shielding effectiveness. The cable is ready to use and requires no additional configuration for standard Ethernet networking.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat6a S/FTP cable in shielded or grounded network installations and avoid repeated tight bending near the connectors. Keep cable runs within recommended lengths for the network equipment in use and terminate only with compatible shielded connectors or panels when extending or modifying the installation.
