Network patch cable EASYLAN Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP) 3 m, RJ-45 — grey

EASYLAN Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP) network patch cable, 3 m long with RJ‑45 to RJ‑45 connectors, is designed for reliable high-speed wired connections in home and office networks. The cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance and incorporates S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, ensuring stable data transmission for applications that require increased bandwidth and signal integrity. The grey jacket provides a neutral appearance suitable for visible installations or cable management in structured cabling environments.

Advantages

The S/FTP (S‑STP) construction combines an overall braided shielding with individually foil‑shielded pairs to provide enhanced protection against external interference and internal pair-to-pair crosstalk. With Cat6a specification and compatibility with RJ‑45 terminations, the cable supports up to 10 Gbps data rates over typical short-run horizontal connections and maintains consistent performance for high-density networking equipment. The 3 m length offers flexibility for desk-to-patch-panel or switch-to-workstation connections while minimizing excess cable slack.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers, servers, switches and routers in home or office networks
• Patch panel to switch or switch to wall outlet connections in structured cabling
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet short-run links and other high-bandwidth applications
• Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is required

Key specifications

How to use

Insert each RJ‑45 connector into the appropriate network port until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Use the 3 m EASYLAN Cat6a cable to link devices such as switches, routers, patch panels and workstations. For best performance, avoid sharp bends and excessive twisting of the cable, and keep the cable routed away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference such as large power transformers or unshielded power cabling. Verify network settings and link lights on connected equipment to confirm successful negotiation and data transfer.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat6a S/FTP cable in properly terminated RJ‑45 ports and within the specified length for 10 Gbps operation. If running multiple cables in parallel, maintain proper separation from high-voltage power lines and follow local cabling standards for grounding and shielding to preserve the cable's EMI protection.
