Patch Cable InLine Cat.6A S/FTP Slim TPE (LSZH) PoE, green, 7.5 m

The InLine Cat.6A S/FTP Slim TPE (LSZH) PoE patch cable in green, 7.5 m, is a space-saving Ethernet cable designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks and PoE applications. Its slim profile with AWG28 conductors and S/FTP shielding provides full Cat6A performance up to 500 MHz while reducing occupied space in dense patch panels and racks. The flexible TPE jacket is low-smoke and halogen-free (LSZH), combining fire-safety properties with ease of routing in confined installations. The cable supports Power over Ethernet up to 87 watts (4PPoE) and reliable transmission over distances up to 30 metres.

Advantages

The slim design requires approximately 40% less space than conventional AWG26 patch cables, enabling higher port density and improved airflow in network cabinets. High-quality pure copper conductors and S/FTP construction reduce signal loss and electromagnetic interference, ensuring stable 10 Gbit/s performance within the specified range. The TPE (LSZH) sheath provides flame-retardant and halogen-free protection while remaining flexible for tight cable management. Material savings of about 25% lower weight and volume contribute to reduced transportation and manufacturing impact.

Suitable for

• High-density patch panels and network cabinets where space saving is required
• Office networks, server rooms and structured cabling installations
• Power over Ethernet devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points and VoIP phones (supports up to 87 W, 4PPoE)
• Environments requiring low-smoke halogen-free cabling for safety compliance

When it may not be suitable

This slim Cat.6A cable is optimized for short- to medium-length runs and dense installations; for permanent links exceeding 30 metres or specialized backbone runs you may require different cable types or structured cabling solutions rated for longer distances. Environments that mandate armored or outdoor UV-resistant cables are not addressed by this indoor LSZH jacket.

• Frequency range: up to 500 MHz
• PoE support: up to 87 W (4PPoE)
• Jacket material: TPE (LSZH - low smoke zero halogen)
• Outlet diameter: approx. 4.5 mm
• Operating temperature range: -20 °C to +75 °C
• Colour: green

How to use

Connect the RJ-45 plugs to the corresponding Ethernet ports on network devices or patch panels following the T568B wiring convention. Route the slim cable through patch panel openings, cable ducts or around rack equipment where higher port density is required; its flexible TPE jacket eases bending and positioning in confined spaces. Ensure connections are properly seated and secured to avoid mechanical strain on the connectors. For PoE devices, confirm the switch or injector supports the required power class and that cable lengths remain within recommended limits for the power delivered.

What to consider before purchase

• Required cable length and whether 7.5 m suits the intended run and cable management
• Compatibility of device ports (RJ-45) and adherence to T568B wiring
• Whether an indoor LSZH jacket is appropriate versus outdoor or armored cable needs
• Need for full Cat.6A performance up to 10 Gbit/s and 500 MHz within the planned distances (up to 30 m)
• PoE power requirements of connected devices (supports up to 87 W, 4PPoE)

Recommendations

For best results, use the cable in patching and horizontal connections inside network cabinets and office environments where space is limited. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or wet outdoor conditions, and keep bend radii above the minimum recommended by the rack or panel manufacturer to maintain consistent Cat.6A performance.
