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

Alantec patch-cord S/FTP Category 6A, 1.0 m length with an LSOH jacket in yellow is designed for high-speed Ethernet connections and structured cabling. The cable meets Category 6A performance requirements to support 10 Gigabit networks over short links and uses S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference. Its low-smoke, halogen-free jacket reduces toxic emissions in case of fire, making it suitable for installations where safety and signal integrity are important.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction provides individual foil shielding for each twisted pair plus an overall braided shield, improving immunity to crosstalk and external EMI compared with unshielded solutions. Category 6A performance ensures bandwidth and headroom for 10 Gbps Ethernet at typical patch lengths. The LSOH (low smoke zero halogen) jacket lowers smoke density and corrosive gas release in fire scenarios. The 1.0 m length and bright yellow color simplify identification and short interconnects in racks, patch panels and wall outlets.

Suitable for

• Short interconnects between switches, patch panels and servers in data centers
• Connections in server racks and network cabinets
• Patch connections to wall outlets and floor boxes in structured cabling
• Environments requiring reduced smoke and halogen emissions

Key specifications

• Cable category: Category 6A (supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet)
• Shielding: S/FTP — individual pair foil plus overall braided shield
• Length: 1.0 m
• Jacket material: Low smoke, zero halogen (LSOH)
• Color: Yellow
• Connectors: Standard RJ45 terminations (8P8C)
• Typical applications: Patch cabling, short link Ethernet

How to use

Use the patch-cord to connect network equipment such as switches, servers and patch panels across short distances up to 1.0 m. Insert RJ45 plugs into compatible Ethernet ports until they click securely. Avoid sharp bends near the connectors and maintain the recommended bend radius to preserve performance. Route the cable to minimize parallel runs with high-voltage power cabling to reduce potential interference.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, verify that connected devices and permanent link components meet Category 6A or compatible specifications. Use the 1.0 m patch-cord for short interconnects to reduce excess cable slack in racks and cabinets and choose the LSOH jacket version where building codes or safety considerations require lower smoke and halogen emissions.
