Networking cable Datwyler Cat6 3.0 m S/FTP (S‑STP) RJ‑45 — Yellow

Datwyler Cat6 3.0 m S/FTP (S‑STP) RJ‑45 — Yellow is a pre-terminated network patch cable designed for reliable Gigabit Ethernet connections. The cable follows Cat6 performance parameters and features S/FTP (S‑STP) shielding that combines an overall braid with individually foil-shielded pairs to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk in dense installations. Both ends are fitted with RJ‑45 male plugs, and the bright yellow jacket ensures easy identification in patch panels, cable trays and server cabinets.

Advantages

The S/FTP (S‑STP) construction provides enhanced protection against external noise while preserving signal integrity over the specified length. A 3.0 m length offers flexibility for standard patching between switches, patch panels and workstation outlets without excessive cable slack. The cable is pre-terminated with standardized RJ‑45 plugs for immediate plug-and-play use and consistent contact quality. The yellow outer jacket improves cable management and visual tracing in multi-cable environments.

Suitable for

• Gigabit Ethernet connections between switches, routers and NICs
• Patching between network equipment and patch panels in data cabinets
• Office workstation connections to wall outlets or desktop switches
• Environments with moderate electromagnetic interference where shielding is required

• Termination: Factory‑terminated for immediate use

How to use

Connect one RJ‑45 plug to the network device (switch, router, patch panel or computer) and the other plug to the corresponding port on the remote device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends, tight loops and proximity to high‑power electrical lines to maintain signal performance. For installations in cabinets or racks, use appropriate cable management accessories to prevent strain on the connectors.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use this Datwyler Cat6 S/FTP cable for short‑range patching up to 3.0 m within structured cabling enclosures. Avoid repeated high‑force bending at the connector ends and maintain separation from mains power cables where possible. Verify port settings and link status on network devices after connection to confirm Gigabit link negotiation.
