SFTP CAT6A patch cable ACT Pink 25.00 meter

The ACT Pink 25.00 meter SFTP CAT6A patch cable is a high-performance network cable designed for reliable gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections. Constructed with S/FTP (shielded foil over pair with overall braid) protection and quality RJ45 connectors with gold-plated contacts, this 25 m cable provides stable signal transmission and reduced electromagnetic interference over longer runs. The snagless connector boots protect the plug latch during installation and the bright pink jacket makes cable identification simple in dense cabling environments.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding minimises crosstalk and external EMI, improving data integrity for demanding network applications. The cable's CAT6A specification supports higher bandwidth and lower return loss compared with lower-category cables, enabling consistent performance for high-speed data transfer. Gold-plated contacts ensure reliable contact resistance and corrosion resistance over time, while the snagless RJ45 boots protect connectors during repeated moves and reterminations. The 25 m length covers longer cable runs without the need for intermediate patch panels.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in server rooms and data closets
• Longer horizontal runs in offices and co‑working spaces
• Home networking where a visible, colour-coded cable is required
• Audio/video streaming and large file transfers demanding low interference

Key specifications

• Cable category: CAT6A (augmented)
• Shielding: S/FTP (foil on each pair + overall braid)
• Length: 25.00 m
• Connectors: RJ45 to RJ45, snagless boots
• Contacts: gold-plated
• Colour: pink
• Intended use: Ethernet networks up to 10 Gbps

How to use

Route the cable between network devices such as switches, routers, servers and wall outlets, avoiding tight bends and sharp edges to prevent damage to the internal pairs. Insert RJ45 plugs fully into corresponding ports until the latch clicks; the snagless boot protects the latch during insertion and removal. For best performance maintain recommended bend radius and avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines or sources of strong electromagnetic interference. Test the link after installation with appropriate network testers to verify continuity, pair mapping and performance parameters.

Usage recommendations

For optimal results use the cable in shielded or grounded installations where possible, terminate and connect to compatible shielded RJ45 ports, and ensure proper grounding of shields at one or both ends according to site practices. Store and handle the cable without kinking and inspect connectors for debris before mating to equipment.
