Networking Cable Telegärtner MP8 FS 500 LSZH 0.25m

The Telegärtner MP8 FS 500 LSZH 0.25m is a Cat6a networking cable with a 0.25 m length designed for high-speed Ethernet connections. It includes RJ-45 connectors with copper-plated contacts and SF/UTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference. The cable jacket and moulded strain relief boot are made from LSZH (Low Smoke, Zero Halogen) material and the product is available in several colours.

Advantages

The cable offers 360-degree plug shielding on shielded variants, flexible construction with moulded strain relief boot for improved durability and protection, and multiple boot styles including 90°, 180°, 270° and very short boots for use in confined spaces. LSZH jacket provides reduced smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire, and copper-plated contacts ensure reliable conductivity for data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s.

Suitable for

• High-speed Ethernet connections (up to 10 Gbit/s)
• Data centre patching and short interconnects
• Installations requiring low-smoke, zero-halogen materials
• Environments needing shielded cables to minimise interference

How to use

Connect the RJ-45 plugs to corresponding Ethernet ports on network devices, ensuring the latch engages for secure connection. Choose the appropriate boot style (angled or short) to fit rack or patch panel spacing and route the cable without sharp bends to preserve shielding and performance. For shielded installations, ensure proper grounding of the cable shields according to site grounding practices.

Recommendations

Use the LSZH variant in enclosed or public spaces where reduced smoke and halogen emissions are required. Select angled or very short boots for dense cabinet or patch panel layouts to reduce strain on connectors. Verify shield continuity and grounding when deploying SF/UTP cables to maintain optimal EMC performance.
