Ethernet-patchkaapeli Lindy Cat6A S/FTP 7,5 m, RJ45–RJ45, harmaa, nikkeli/kultakontaktit

Lindy Cat6A S/FTP Ethernet patch cable, 7.5 m, with RJ45 connectors on both ends and nickel/gold plated contacts. This Cat6a cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBase-T) and an operating bandwidth up to 500 MHz. The S/FTP construction uses an overall braided shield plus foil around each twisted pair to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk. The grey TPE jacket provides greater flexibility and higher impact and tear resistance compared with standard PVC, while a snagless strain relief protects the connector latch during installation and removal. The cable is produced with recycled materials and holds GRS certification, with over 50% of its weight made from recycled content.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding and Cat6A specification deliver stable high-speed performance in environments with elevated EMI, making the cable suitable for demanding 10 Gbit/s networks. Gold-plated contacts improve corrosion resistance and connection reliability over time. The TPE jacket increases flexibility for tight routing in office or rack installations and offers a high flex rating for long-term durability. GRS certification and the use of recycled materials reduce environmental impact without compromising functional performance.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections (10GBase-T) in data centres and server rooms
• Office networks and structured cabling requiring reduced EMI and crosstalk
• Connections between switches, patch panels and network devices in racks
• Environments where flexible, durable cabling is needed for frequent reconfiguration

Key specifications

• Shielding: S/FTP — overall braid with individual foil-shielded pairs
• Bandwidth: up to 500 MHz
• Data rate: supports up to 10 Gbit/s (10GBase-T)
• Length: 7.5 m
• Connectors: RJ45 — male to male
• Contacts: nickel/gold plated
• Jacket material: TPE (flexible, high impact and tear resistance)
• Design: snagless strain relief for connector latch protection
• Environmental: GRS certified with >50% recycled material content

How to use

Position the cable so that the RJ45 connectors align with the ports on the network devices, ensuring the latch faces the correct direction. Gently insert each connector until it clicks into place. To remove, depress the latch and pull the connector straight out to avoid damaging the plug or port. Route the cable through trays or along racks, avoiding sharp bends and excessive torsion; the TPE jacket allows flexible routing but maintain the manufacturer’s recommended bend radius for best performance. For permanent structured cabling, verify termination and perform link testing to confirm 10G performance and signal integrity.

Recommendations

Use the Lindy Cat6A S/FTP cable for critical 10G links and in areas with high electromagnetic interference. Keep the cable away from strong sources of electrical noise where possible, avoid repeating tight sharp bends near the connectors, and perform network testing after installation to validate throughput and cable integrity.
