Networking Cable Dätwyler Cat. 6a RJ45 - RJ45 3m

The Dätwyler Cat. 6a RJ45 - RJ45 3m networking cable is a shielded high-performance connection cable designed for structured cabling and point-to-point device links. With a length of 3 meters and S/FTP shielding, the cable supports data transfer rates up to 10 000 Mbit/s and is suitable for high-bandwidth applications where signal integrity and reduced electromagnetic interference are required. The blue jacket provides easy identification in cabling runs and standard RJ45 plugs on both ends ensure simple plug-and-play installation.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding combines an overall foil with individually shielded pairs to minimise crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference, improving signal quality at higher frequencies. The cable’s Cat. 6a specification allows for 10 Gigabit Ethernet operation over typical copper cabling distances, offering consistent throughput for servers, switches and network endpoints. A 3 m length gives flexibility for workstation and rack connections without excess cable slack.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers, laptops and networked peripherals to switches or routers
• Patch connections in server rooms, communication cabinets and data racks
• High-speed LAN environments requiring 10 Gbps data rates or enhanced interference protection
• Temporary or permanent point-to-point connections between network devices

Key specifications

• Category: Cat. 6a
• Connector type: RJ45 to RJ45 (8P8C)
• Length: 3 m
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually foil-shielded pairs)
• Maximum data rate: up to 10 000 Mbit/s
• Cable colour: blue
• Suitable frequency range: supports up to 500 MHz performance (Cat. 6a standard)

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the network port of your device and the other into the corresponding switch, router or patch panel port. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and keep it separated from power cables and sources of strong electromagnetic interference where possible. For rack installations, use cable management accessories to maintain organized runs and reduce stress on connectors.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat. 6a S/FTP cable in environments where 10 Gigabit Ethernet or high immunity to interference is required. Avoid repeated sharp bends and excessive pulling force during installation. When deploying multiple cables, maintain proper separation from mains power and follow local installation standards for structured cabling.
