Patch-cord Alantec S/FTP Category 6A LSOH 1.0 m red

Alantec S/FTP Category 6A patch-cord, 1.0 m length with a red LSOH jacket, is a shielded network cable engineered to meet Category 6A transmission requirements. The cable supports high-speed 10 Gigabit Ethernet and is built with S/FTP construction—an overall braided shield combined with individually foil-shielded twisted pairs—to reduce crosstalk and electromagnetic interference for stable data links in dense cabling environments.

Advantages

This Alantec patch-cord combines Category 6A performance with a low-smoke, halogen-free (LSOH) jacket for safer use in indoor installations. The S/FTP shielding improves signal integrity by suppressing alien crosstalk and EMI, while the 1.0 m length and color-coded red jacket simplify patch panel and switch organization. Connectors are factory-terminated to provide consistent contact quality and reliable mechanical fit in standard RJ45 ports.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links between switches and servers
• Patch panel to switch connections in server rooms and data centers
• Workstation or desktop network connections requiring Cat6A performance
• Cabling runs in environments where reduced smoke and halogen emissions are required

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6A (S/FTP)
• Shielding: Overall braid shield with individually foil-shielded pairs
• Length: 1.0 m
• Jacket material: LSOH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Color: Red
• Data rate: Supports up to 10 Gbps Ethernet
• Connector type: RJ45 compatible

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the network switch, patch panel or wall outlet and the other connector into the target device such as a server, workstation or network appliance. Ensure connectors are fully seated and that cable routing avoids sharp bends or crushing points. For best performance, keep the cable length within standard patch limits and maintain separation from high-voltage power lines and sources of strong electromagnetic interference.

Usage recommendations

Use this Cat6A S/FTP patch-cord for short interconnects in structured cabling setups where 10 Gbps performance and improved EMI protection are required. Select the red jacket for visible port identification or color-coded rack management. Inspect connectors before installation and replace cables showing visible damage to preserve signal integrity.
