Network cable Alcasa Cat6 S/FTP (S‑STP) 1 m, RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold contacts, orange

Alcasa Cat6 S/FTP (S‑STP) 1 m patch cable with RJ-45 connectors and gold-plated contacts is designed for short-range wired network connections. The cable conforms to Cat6 performance parameters for gigabit Ethernet and combines an overall braided shield with individually foil-shielded twisted pairs (S/FTP) to minimize crosstalk and electromagnetic interference. The compact 1 m orange jacket makes the cable suitable for tidy patching between switches, routers, patch panels and wall sockets in confined spaces.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction provides enhanced protection against external EMI and reduces near-end and far-end crosstalk compared with unshielded cables. Gold-plated contacts improve contact reliability and resist corrosion for consistent signal transmission. The short 1 m length reduces excess cable clutter and signal attenuation for high-speed LAN links in server racks, desktop setups or home network cabinets. The orange jacket enables easy identification among multiple runs.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches and patch panels in network racks
• Patching routers to wall ports or modems in home and office environments
• Short Ethernet runs between desktop PCs and wall outlets
• Temporary or permanent connections in structured cabling where shielded cable is required

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6
• Shielding: overall braided shield with individually foil‑shielded pairs (S/FTP / S‑STP)
• Connector type: RJ‑45 male to RJ‑45 male
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Length: 1 meter
• Color: orange
• Intended data rates: gigabit Ethernet (up to 1 Gbps, subject to network equipment)

How to use

Insert each RJ‑45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port until the latch clicks to ensure a secure mechanical and electrical connection. Use the 1 m Alcasa Cat6 S/FTP cable for short patching runs; avoid excessive bending near the connectors and maintain the cable within recommended bend radius to preserve shielding integrity and signal quality. For installations in shielded environments, ensure both ends are properly terminated to shielded ports or use appropriate grounding practices on network equipment.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, use the Alcasa Cat6 S/FTP cable within a structured cabling system that supports shielded cabling and ensure connectors and networking devices are compatible with shielded RJ‑45 terminations. Avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines for long distances to minimize interference. Store unused cables coiled loosely and avoid kinking or tight knots.
