ROLINE Cat.6 S/FTP PiMF Patch Cable, PoE, Blue, 0.3 m 21.51.1314

In the dense cabling of a server rack, every centimetre counts. This ROLINE Cat.6 patch cable stands out with its S/FTP PiMF construction: each twisted pair is individually wrapped in metal foil, and the whole bundle is protected by an overall braided screen. The result is exceptional immunity to electromagnetic interference, even when bundled with power lines or other network cables. At 0.3 m, it is the ideal length for neat, short connections between patch panels, switches, and servers, reducing clutter and improving airflow. The blue jacket provides quick visual identification in complex installations. Supporting Power over Ethernet up to 4PPoE (IEEE 802.3bt), it delivers both data and power to devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones, eliminating the need for separate power supplies.

Highlights

• Cat.6 (Class E) performance with up to 250 MHz bandwidth
• S/FTP PiMF shielding: foil per pair plus overall braid
• Supports PoE, PoE+, and 4PPoE (IEEE 802.3af/at/bt)
• Gold-plated RJ45 connectors for reliable, corrosion-resistant contacts
• Flexible stranded copper conductors (AWG 27/7) for easy routing
• Short 0.3 m length perfect for high-density patching

In daily use

Imagine a 48-port switch fully populated with patch cables. With ordinary unshielded cables, crosstalk and alien interference can degrade performance, especially at Gigabit speeds. This ROLINE cable's PiMF design keeps each pair isolated, ensuring consistent 10/100/1000 Mbps throughput and even 10 Gbps over short distances. The blue colour is not just aesthetic—it can be part of a colour-coded scheme to distinguish VLANs, departments, or device types. The slim, flexible jacket makes it easy to dress cables neatly, and the snagless boot protects the locking tab during frequent moves and changes. Whether you're setting up a new rack or tidying an existing one, these short cables are the unsung heroes of a clean, professional installation.
