Networking Cable VALUE 15m S/FTP Cat.6a Red

The VALUE 15m S/FTP Cat.6a networking cable in red is a patch cable designed for Ethernet connections with data transfer rates of up to 10 Gbit/s and a bandwidth of 500 MHz. It uses a prepared shielded twisted pair (PiMF / S/FTP) construction with eight conductors and full braided shielding plus aluminium foil around pairs, and features RJ-45 connectors on both ends with 1:1 contact wiring in accordance with the EIA/TIA 568 standard. The cable is flexible, offers moulded kink protection, and has an impedance of 100 Ohm.

Advantages

The cable provides S/FTP shielding for reduced crosstalk and improved signal integrity, supports high-speed data transfer up to 10 Gbit/s, and a bandwidth of 500 MHz. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors increase contact reliability and resistance to corrosion. The moulded kink protection and flexible jacket enable use in confined spaces and help maintain long-term mechanical durability.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and patch panels in local area networks
• High-speed data links for servers and workstations
• Structured cabling installations requiring Cat.6a performance

Key specifications

• Length: 15 m
• Category: Cat.6a (S/FTP, PiMF)
• Maximum data rate: up to 10 Gbit/s (10,000 Mbit/s)
• Bandwidth: 500 MHz
• Impedance: 100 Ohm
• Connectors: RJ-45 — gold-plated, 1:1 wiring (EIA/TIA 568)
• Shielding: pairs shielded with aluminium foil plus full braided shielding
• Color: Red

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port on your devices (switch, router, network card, or patch panel). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch engages. Route the cable avoiding sharp edges and excessive bending; the cable’s flexible design and moulded kink protection allow installation in narrow routes and racks. For structured cabling, follow EIA/TIA 568 termination and patching practices.

Recommendations

Use this Cat.6a S/FTP cable for short to medium links within racks or between networking equipment where 10 Gbit/s performance and reduced electromagnetic interference are required. Avoid repeated tight bending below the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius and prevent exposure to liquids or extreme temperatures to maintain performance.
