Product Features
Technical Overview
This Cat6 patch cable supports data transmission up to 550 MHz, meeting industry standards for Gigabit Ethernet and other high-speed network applications. The S/FTP shielding combines individual foil shielding for each pair with an overall braided shield, providing robust protection against crosstalk and external interference.
Constructed with 26 AWG stranded copper conductors, the cable maintains flexibility while ensuring reliable signal integrity. The gold-plated contacts on the RJ45 connectors enhance conductivity and resist corrosion, supporting consistent performance over time.
Key Product Advantages
This shielded patch cable delivers enhanced network reliability through its advanced construction and thoughtful design features. The combination of S/FTP shielding and quality components makes it suitable for environments where signal integrity is critical.
Superior Interference Protection
The S/FTP shielding configuration provides comprehensive protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), ensuring clean signal transmission in electrically noisy environments.
- Individual foil shielding for each twisted pair
- Overall braided shield for external protection
- Reduces crosstalk between adjacent cables
Durable Connection Design
Gold-plated RJ45 contacts maintain optimal conductivity while resisting oxidation, and the snagless molded boots prevent accidental disconnection during cable management activities.
- 50-micron gold plating on contacts
- Reinforced boot strain relief
- Molded one-piece construction
Deployment / Use Cases
This Cat6 shielded patch cable is ideal for connecting network equipment in professional settings where reliable connectivity and interference protection are essential. Its 15-foot length provides flexibility for various installation scenarios without excessive cable slack.
Common deployment scenarios include connecting switches to patch panels in server rooms, linking workstations to wall outlets in office environments, and interconnecting network devices in data centers. The green color coding helps with visual organization in complex cable management systems.

FAQ
What type of shielding does this Cat6 cable use?
This cable features S/FTP (Shielded/Foiled Twisted Pair) shielding, which combines individual foil shielding around each twisted pair with an overall braided shield. This dual-layer approach provides comprehensive protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), making it suitable for environments with significant electrical noise or where cables run in close proximity to power sources.
What are the benefits of gold-plated connectors on this patch cable?
The gold-plated RJ45 connectors on this patch cable offer several advantages. Gold provides excellent conductivity while resisting oxidation and corrosion, ensuring consistent electrical performance over time. The plating also creates a more reliable connection with reduced insertion loss, which is particularly important for maintaining signal integrity in high-speed network applications. This feature enhances the cable's durability and long-term reliability in professional installations.
How does the snagless boot design improve cable management?
The snagless molded boots feature a low-profile design that prevents the connector latch from catching on rack components, other cables, or cable management hardware during installation and maintenance. This design reduces the risk of accidental disconnection when moving cables in dense installations and helps maintain organized cable runs. The boots also provide strain relief at the connection point, protecting the internal wires from damage during repeated plugging and unplugging cycles.
What network applications is this 15-foot Cat6 cable suitable for?
This 15-foot Cat6 shielded patch cable supports Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T) and other high-speed network applications up to 550 MHz. It's ideal for connecting network switches to patch panels, linking workstations to network outlets, interconnecting servers in data centers, and connecting various network devices in office environments. The 15-foot length provides flexibility for routing around obstacles while minimizing excess cable that can create management challenges.
