Patch cable helos Ultra Slim 50 cm SFTP CAT 6a

helos Ultra Slim patch cable, 50 cm length with SFTP shielding, provides CAT 6a performance in a reduced-diameter jacket. Designed for short runs between patch panels, switches and network devices, this slim cable minimizes clutter in dense rack and desktop environments while supporting high-speed Ethernet applications up to 10 Gbps over appropriate infrastructure. The SFTP construction offers braided and foil shielding to reduce electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference, improving signal integrity in installations with multiple adjacent cables and active equipment.

Advantages

The slim profile reduces cable bulk and allows neater routing in confined spaces without compromising the electrical characteristics required for CAT 6a performance. SFTP shielding increases resistance to external interference and crosstalk, which helps maintain stable throughput. A 50 cm length is suitable for short patching tasks where cable excess must be avoided. The connector and jacket are designed for flexibility and easy handling during installation and reconfiguration.

Suitable for

• Patching between switches and patch panels in network racks
• Connecting network devices in office or data center environments with limited space
• Short Ethernet runs behind desktops, wall outlets, or inside communication cabinets

Key specifications

• Category: CAT 6a performance suitable for 10 Gbps Ethernet on short distances
• Length: 50 cm
• Shielding: SFTP (foil plus braided shield) for enhanced EMI and RFI protection
• Jacket: slim-profile jacket for reduced diameter and improved cable management
• Conductor: twisted pair copper suitable for high-frequency signal transmission

How to use

Use this helos Ultra Slim 50 cm SFTP CAT 6a patch cable to create short connections between network equipment such as switches, patch panels and endpoints. Insert RJ45 connectors firmly into the corresponding ports until they latch. Avoid sharp bends near the connectors and maintain the cable bend radius recommended for twisted-pair cables to preserve signal quality. For installations in shielded environments, ensure proper grounding of the shield at the patch panel or device end where required.

Recommendations

For best performance, use the patch cable for short interconnects within racks or cabinets and combine it with compatible CAT 6a-rated infrastructure. Keep the cable away from high-power electrical lines where possible and ensure shield continuity by using shielded connectors and grounded panels when deploying in environments with significant electromagnetic interference.
