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

Alantec S/FTP Category 6A patch-cord, 1.0 m in green, is designed for high-speed Ethernet and reliable data transmission in structured cabling. The cable uses S/FTP shielding to isolate pairs and suppress external interference, while Category 6A performance supports higher bandwidth and reduced crosstalk compared with lower categories. The LSOH (low smoke, zero halogen) jacket provides improved safety in confined spaces by emitting less smoke and no halogenated gases in case of fire.

Advantages

The shielded S/FTP construction offers strong protection against electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference, improving signal integrity for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and other demanding applications. Category 6A performance ensures margin for higher frequencies and longer reach within typical patching environments. The LSOH jacket minimizes toxic and corrosive emissions, making the cable suitable for installation in offices, data centers and equipment cabinets where safety standards require reduced smoke and halogen-free materials. The 1.0 m length and standardized connector terminations simplify patching between switches, patch panels and active network devices.

Suitable for

• Patching between switches, routers and patch panels in LAN racks and cabinets
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections and high-bandwidth data links
• Structured cabling in offices, server rooms and telecommunications closets
• Environments that require low-smoke and zero-halogen materials for safety

Key specifications

• Category: Category 6A (Cat6A) performance for enhanced bandwidth
• Shielding: S/FTP – overall braid plus individually shielded pairs
• Length: 1.0 meter suitable for short patching runs
• Jacket material: LSOH (low smoke zero halogen) for reduced smoke and halogen emissions
• Color: green for easy identification in patch panels and cable runs
• Connector type: standardized RJ45 terminations for Ethernet equipment

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to the network switch, router or patch panel and the other end to the target device or port. Ensure connectors are fully seated and that the cable is routed without sharp bends or mechanical stress. Use the 1.0 m length for short patching runs inside racks, between adjacent devices, or from patch panels to nearby equipment. Verify link speed and duplex settings on connected devices after installation to confirm expected Category 6A performance.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, maintain separation from unshielded power cables and avoid tight bundling with active power conductors. Use cable management accessories to prevent strain on connectors and keep bend radius above manufacturer-recommended limits. In shielded installations, ensure proper grounding of equipment and cable shields to benefit fully from S/FTP construction.
