Networking cable EASYLAN Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP) RJ-45–RJ-45 Grey 0.5 m (model CS1OAADAD0005)

EASYLAN Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP) RJ-45–RJ-45 patch cable, 0.5 m length in grey with LSOH jacket. The cable uses a screened foiled twisted pair (S/FTP) design and RJ-45 connectors on both ends, providing shielding against electromagnetic interference and reduced crosstalk. It is designed for high-speed LAN links including 10 Gigabit Ethernet and for short patch connections in racks or between network devices.

Advantages

The S/FTP (S-STP) shielding offers improved protection from EMI and near-end crosstalk compared with unshielded cables, supporting stable high-speed data transmission. With RJ-45 connectors on both ends and a short 0.5 m length the cable is convenient for patching in racks, connecting adjacent switches and servers, or other short links where minimal slack is needed. The grey LSOH jacket reduces smoke and toxic gas in case of fire, making it suitable for installations in confined or public spaces where low-smoke materials are preferred.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in structured cabling
• Rack patching between switches, patch panels and servers
• Short copper connections in data cabinets and network closets

When it may not be suitable

The 0.5 m length is intended for short patching tasks and is not suitable for long-distance runs. For installations that require longer point-to-point cabling or in environments where shielding is unnecessary, unshielded Cat6a or longer cables may be more appropriate.

Key specifications

• Length: 0.5 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 male – RJ-45 male
• Cable category and construction: Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP)
• Jacket: LSOH (low smoke zero halogen), grey
• Intended bandwidth: up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet (Class EA)

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to the network port of a switch, patch panel or server and the other connector to the corresponding port on the adjacent device. Route the short cable within the rack or cabinet to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress on the connectors. For best performance keep the cable away from large sources of electromagnetic interference and ensure connectors are fully inserted and latched.

What to consider before purchase

• Required cable length — 0.5 m is suitable only for short patching
• Whether shielded construction (S/FTP) is needed for your environment
• Compatibility with device ports (RJ-45) and required network speed

Usage recommendations

Use this EASYLAN Cat6a S/FTP RJ-45–RJ-45 cable for short, high-speed patch connections in racks and cabinets where shielding and LSOH jacket properties are desired; avoid using it for long runs.
