Network Cable VALUE S/FTP (PiMF) Patch Cord Cat.6 RJ-45 1m Black

Network Cable VALUE S/FTP (PiMF) Patch Cord Cat.6 RJ-45 1m Black is a 1‑metre patch cable designed for wired network connections between devices. It uses a 4‑pair stranded construction with pair‑level aluminium‑clad polyester foil and a complete braid shield to reduce electromagnetic interference. Both ends have screened RJ‑45 plugs with gold‑plated contacts and moulded kink protection for improved durability and flexible routing in confined spaces.

Advantages

The S/FTP (PiMF) shielding provides high protection against crosstalk and external interference, supporting more reliable data transmission in environments with electrical noise. Gold‑plated contacts ensure consistent contact quality and corrosion resistance. The moulded kink protection and flexible cable jacket allow tight bends without damaging the internal conductors, making installation easier in racks, patch panels, and office layouts.

Suitable for

• Short horizontal connections between patch panels, switches and wall outlets
• Connecting networked devices such as computers, NAS, routers and VoIP phones
• Installations requiring enhanced shielding to limit EMI and crosstalk

When it may not be suitable

This 1 m patch cord is not intended for permanent in‑wall installation where cable must meet specific fire or building codes; it is primarily for patching and device interconnection. For longer runs between floors or distant rooms, a longer cable or fixed installation cabling with appropriate certification may be required.

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.6 (S/FTP, PiMF)
• Construction: 4‑pair stranded conductor
• Shielding: pair aluminium‑clad polyester foil + overall braid
• Connectors: screened RJ‑45 on both ends
• Contact plating: gold‑plated contacts
• Length: 1 m
• Colour: black

How to use

Plug each screened RJ‑45 connector into the corresponding network ports on your devices or patch panels until the latch clicks. Ensure shielded ports or chassis are used when relying on cable shielding for EMI protection; secure connector shields to the grounding point if required by your installation. Route the cable without sharp kinks and avoid excessive tension; the moulded strain relief reduces stress at the connector ends during normal handling.

What to consider before purchase

• Required length — this product is 1 m long
• Whether shielded cable is necessary for your environment to reduce EMI
• Compatibility with device ports (standard RJ‑45 ethernet ports)

Usage recommendations

Use the VALUE S/FTP Cat.6 patch cord for short, shielded connections in racks and desktop setups; pair with shielded patch panels or switches to maintain grounding continuity and optimal EMI protection.
