Patch cable EQUIP Cat.6A S/FTP Outdoor 0.25 m, RJ-45 — Black

The EQUIP Cat.6A S/FTP Outdoor patch cable, 0.25 m in length with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, is designed for outdoor network links and short patch connections. Its S/FTP (S‑STP) shielding and stranded bare copper conductors provide protection against electromagnetic interference and support data rates up to 10 Gbit/s. The black LDPE jacket is moisture-, UV- and oil-resistant and the cable is suitable for use in demanding outdoor and industrial environments.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding (foil and braid with PIMF) reduces EMI/RFI and crosstalk, improving signal stability for high-bandwidth applications. The cable supports 500 MHz performance and 10 Gbit/s transmission, and is compatible with PoE and PoE+ power delivery. A molded boot with strain relief and a snagless design simplify installation and protect the RJ-45 plugs during deployment. The construction meets ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173 standards and is RoHS compliant.

Suitable for

• Outdoor network links and short external patch connections
• Outdoor surveillance and CCTV camera connections
• IoT devices and industrial networking requiring shielded cabling
• High-speed data applications such as video streaming, gaming, and cloud services

How to use

Connect the RJ-45 plugs to the corresponding network ports on devices or patch panels. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch engages. For outdoor installations, route the cable in protective conduits or along mounting paths that limit mechanical stress; use appropriate gland fittings where the cable passes through enclosures to maintain splash water protection. Verify link speed and PoE settings on network equipment after installation.

Recommendations

For reliable outdoor performance, avoid prolonged exposure to direct mechanical abrasion and secure the cable to prevent repeated bending at the connector. Use the cable for short outdoor links and patch connections (0.25 m) between weatherproof enclosures or between an external device and a protected interface. Regularly inspect connectors for corrosion if installed in harsh environments.
