Product Features
Technical Overview
This Category 6 cable supports data transfer rates up to 1 Gbit/s, meeting the performance requirements for modern Ethernet networks. The S/FTP (Shielded/Foiled Twisted Pair) shielding provides effective protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), which is critical in environments with high electrical noise or dense cabling.
The cable uses 24 AWG stranded copper conductors, offering a balance of current capacity and flexibility for patch applications. Features like Near End Crosstalk (NEXT) suppression and EMI/RF protection ensure stable signal quality, while support for Power over Ethernet (PoE) allows it to deliver both data and power to compatible devices.
Key Product Advantages
This patch cable combines robust construction with practical features to enhance network reliability and ease of use. The lockable boot design secures connectors in place, reducing the risk of accidental disconnections in high-traffic areas.
Enhanced Durability
The damage-resistant PVC jacket and stranded conductors withstand repeated bending and handling, making this cable suitable for frequent reconfigurations in dynamic IT environments.
- Rugged PVC jacket
- Stranded conductors for flexibility
- Snagless boot protects connectors
Superior Signal Integrity
Gold-plated contacts and S/FTP shielding minimize signal loss and interference, ensuring consistent gigabit performance even in electrically noisy settings.
- Gold contact plating reduces corrosion
- S/FTP shielding blocks EMI/RFI
- NEXT suppression for clear signals
Deployment / Use Cases
This cable is engineered for patch applications in structured cabling systems, providing a reliable link between network infrastructure and end devices. Its 10-foot length is optimal for connecting equipment within racks, under desks, or between adjacent wall plates.
Common use cases include connecting patch panels to switches in data center cabinets, linking wall outlets to computers in office setups, and interfacing network devices in server rooms. The CM-rated jacket is suitable for use in plenum spaces where fire safety is a concern, while PoE compatibility supports devices like IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points that require both data and power over a single cable.
Data Center and Server Room
Ideal for high-density patching in racks and cabinets, where shielded construction prevents crosstalk between adjacent cables and snagless boots facilitate easy management.
Office and Commercial Networks
Perfect for connecting workstations to network outlets, with the black color blending discreetly into office environments and the lockable feature preventing accidental unplugs.
