Network cable DELOCK 80256 Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP) RJ-45–RJ-45, 2 m, black

DELOCK 80256 is a 2 m Cat6a S/FTP (S‑STP) Ethernet patch cable with RJ‑45 connectors on both ends. It is specified for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and high‑speed LAN connections and combines individual pair foil shielding with an overall braided shield to reduce crosstalk and electromagnetic interference. The cable is suitable for connecting switches, routers, patch panels and workstations in structured cabling environments. The product includes coloured secure clips for identification and a locking mechanism with key to prevent unauthorised removal when used in jacks or panels.

Advantages

The S/FTP (S‑STP) construction provides individual foil shielding for each twisted pair plus an overall braid, improving resistance to external EMI and minimising pair‑to‑pair crosstalk for reliable 10 Gigabit performance. With a 2 m length and moulded RJ‑45 connectors on both ends the cable is easy to route and install in rack, desktop or wall‑mounted setups. Coloured secure clips allow visual identification and cable management, while the lockable RJ‑45 plug adds physical security for connections in cabinets or access points.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet backbones and high‑speed LAN links
• Connecting switches, routers and patch panels in server rooms
• Workstation and desktop network connections where shielding is required
• Environments with elevated electromagnetic interference where S/FTP shielding is beneficial

How to use

Insert the RJ‑45 connector into the corresponding jack on a switch, patch panel, router or network interface until the latch clicks. To identify and organise connections, attach a coloured secure clip to the plug boot. If physical locking is required, engage the lock on the RJ‑45 plug into a compatible jack or panel socket and secure it using the supplied key; to unlock, insert the key and release the mechanism. Route the cable with appropriate bend radius and secure with cable management accessories to avoid strain on connectors.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat6a S/FTP cable in shielded or grounded installation areas and avoid tight bends or excessive pull force. Use the coloured clips to label connections and the locking feature when ports require restricted access.
