Dexlan networking cable 858718 3 m Cat6a S/FTP Green

The Dexlan networking cable 858718 3 m Cat6a S/FTP Green is a 3-meter Ethernet patch cable built to Cat6a standards with S/FTP shielding and RJ-45 connectors on both ends. It supports high-speed data transmission for networks that require reliable Gigabit and 10 Gigabit performance over short to medium distances. The cable's green jacket provides easy visual identification within structured cabling or home networking environments and is suitable for connecting switches, patch panels, routers, and networked devices.

Advantages

Built to Cat6a specifications, this cable offers improved alien crosstalk performance and higher bandwidth compared with lower-category cables. The S/FTP (screened/foiled twisted pair) construction combines an overall braid with individually foiled pairs to reduce electromagnetic interference and improve signal integrity in electrically noisy environments. The RJ-45 connectors are compatible with standard Ethernet ports and provide tool-friendly installation and reliable contact.

Suitable for

• Connectors between switches, patch panels and routers in office networks
• High-speed desktop or workstation connections requiring Gigabit or 10GBase-T over short runs
• Home media centers, NAS devices, and gaming setups where reduced interference is required
• Structured cabling runs in data closets where color-coding improves cable management

Key specifications

• Length: 3 m
• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid + individually foiled pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Supported speeds: Gigabit Ethernet and 10GBase-T over appropriate distances
• Jacket color: Green

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to the Ethernet port of your network device (for example, a switch, router, or network interface on a PC) and the other end to the destination device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully seated and latch into place to establish a secure connection. For best performance, avoid sharp bends, kinks, or running the cable parallel to high-voltage wiring for extended lengths. Use appropriate cable management accessories such as cable ties or organizers to maintain neat runs and reduce physical strain on connectors.

Usage recommendations

For optimal 10GBase-T performance, keep the cable run within recommended distances for Cat6a installations and terminate into compatible network equipment. When installing in environments with significant electromagnetic interference, verify shielding continuity at both ends and use shielded connectors or patch panels where required.
