Verkkokaapeli Helos 3,0 m S/FTP Cat 6a — 3,0 m pituus, S/FTP-suojaus, Cat6a

Helos patch cable, 3.0 m length, S/FTP shielding and Cat 6a specification provide a compact, shielded connection for high-speed Ethernet links. This 3.0 m cable is built to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet over short runs while reducing electromagnetic interference through braided and foil shielding. The cable is suitable for structured cabling in racks, between switches and routers, or for connecting end devices in office and home LAN environments, offering stable data transmission and simple installation.

Advantages

The Helos Cat 6a S/FTP patch cable combines Category 6a performance with S/FTP shielding to minimize crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference. Its 3.0 m length provides flexibility for typical rack and desktop setups without excess slack. The construction supports higher bandwidths and improved signal integrity compared with lower-category cables, ensuring reliable 10 Gbps operation on compatible equipment. Connectors and cable geometry are optimized for consistent impedance and reduced packet loss in short-distance, high-speed networks.

Suitable for

• Short-distance 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in server rooms and network racks
• Connections between switches, routers and patch panels
• Office workstations and home LANs requiring stable high-speed connectivity
• Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is important

Key specifications

• Standard: Category 6a (Cat 6a)
• Shielding: S/FTP (braided shield with individual foil shielding for pairs)
• Length: 3.0 m
• Supported data rate: up to 10 Gbps for suitable channel configurations
• Conductor type: twisted pairs (four pairs)
• Typical use: horizontal cabling, patching between network devices

How to use

Connect the Helos Cat 6a S/FTP patch cable between the RJ45 ports of your network devices, such as switches, routers, patch panels or network interface cards. Ensure both endpoints support the intended data rates and that connectors are fully inserted until they click. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive mechanical stress; maintain minimum bend radius recommended for Ethernet twisted-pair cabling. For best shielding performance, avoid running the cable tightly alongside heavy power lines or sources of EMI, and ensure proper grounding of shielded patch panels or connectors where applicable.

Recommendations

Use this 3.0 m S/FTP Cat 6a cable for short, high-speed connections where EMI reduction is needed. Inspect connectors periodically and replace the cable if the outer jacket or plug is damaged. For full 10 Gbps performance across longer channels, verify the entire link (patch cables, horizontal cabling and termination) meets Cat 6a channel standards.
