Network cable XXX_Assmann (Digitus) 21.45.3239 Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP) 20 m Green RJ-45–RJ-45

Network cable XXX_Assmann (Digitus) 21.45.3239 Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP) 20 m Green RJ-45–RJ-45 is a 20-metre Cat6a patch cable designed for high-speed Ethernet connections. The cable uses S/FTP (overall braid with individually foil-shielded pairs) to minimise electromagnetic interference and preserve signal integrity over longer runs. Both ends are fitted with screened RJ-45 straight male connectors with gold-plated contacts and moulded bend protection. The jacket is made from recycled material and comes in green for easy identification in structured cabling environments.

Advantages

This Cat6a S/FTP cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet and is suitable for demanding network environments where reduced crosstalk and external interference are important. The double shielding and full braid provide consistent performance in data centres and office networks. Gold-plated contacts and moulded kink protection improve durability and connection reliability, while the stranded 4-pair copper construction maintains flexibility for installation in confined spaces. The recycled-material jacket offers an environmentally conscious option without compromising on build quality.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet backbone runs in data centres and server rooms
• Gigabit and Fast Ethernet connections in offices and commercial premises
• Structured cabling and patch panels requiring shielded Cat6a links
• Connections between switches, routers, NAS devices and workstations
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference where S/FTP shielding is beneficial

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to the network port of a switch, router or network device and plug the other end into the corresponding port on the target device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain the recommended bend radius at the connector area; the moulded bend protection reduces stress but good cable management improves long-term reliability. The cable is plug-and-play and requires no additional configuration for standard Ethernet networks.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines and keep it away from strong EMI sources. Use appropriate cable management such as cable trays or Velcro straps to prevent excessive bending or tension. When used in shielded installations, ensure proper grounding of connected equipment and patch panels to maintain the effectiveness of S/FTP shielding.
