Network Cable EFB Elektronik INFRALAN Cat.7A 1500 MHz AWG22 S/FTP 4P CPR Cca melon yellow RAL1028 100m

INFRALAN Cat.7A installation cable from EFB Elektronik is a 4-pair S/FTP network cable with AWG22 conductors designed for high-frequency data transmission up to 1500 MHz. Supplied on a 100 m reel and finished in melon yellow (RAL1028), the cable combines individually foil-shielded pairs with an overall braided screen to reduce crosstalk and electromagnetic interference. It is manufactured to meet CPR class Cca for fixed in-building installations and is intended for backbone, horizontal and data-center links that require enhanced shielding and stable signal performance.

Advantages

The combination of foil shielding around each twisted pair and an overall braid provides strong protection against external electromagnetic noise and pair-to-pair interference, supporting reliable high-bandwidth transmission. AWG22 conductors offer lower attenuation and improved signal integrity over longer runs compared with finer gauges. The 1500 MHz frequency specification supports advanced Ethernet standards and high-data-rate applications. A 100 m reel simplifies installation planning and inventory management for structured cabling projects.

Suitable for

• High-bandwidth Ethernet links (including 10G/25G/40G-ready infrastructure depending on system components)
• Backbone and horizontal cabling in commercial buildings
• Data center uplinks and inter-rack connections
• Environments with potential EMI where enhanced shielding is required

When it may not be suitable

This Cat.7A S/FTP cable is intended for fixed in-building installations; it is not designed for frequent flexing or continuous movement applications such as permanent connection to moving equipment or robotic arms. For outdoor, direct-burial, or riser/plenum trunk installations requiring different flame-retardant or UV-resistant jackets, select a cable specifically rated for those conditions.

Key specifications

• Conductor size: AWG22, solid or stranded variant suitable for installation use
• Pair shielding: Individually foil-shielded pairs (S/FTP)
• Overall screening: Braided shield for additional EMI protection
• Frequency rating: up to 1500 MHz
• Number of pairs: 4
• Length: 100 m reel
• CPR classification: Cca (suitable for fixed in-building use)
• Outer jacket color: melon yellow (RAL1028)

How to use

Plan the cable route and verify that the installation environment matches the CPR Cca rating and mechanical requirements. Terminate the cable with compatible Keystone jacks or shielded RJ45 plugs designed for Cat.7A / S/FTP cables, taking care to maintain shielding continuity by properly preparing and folding back the drain/braid and seating the foil. Use appropriate cable management such as trays, conduits or cable ties to avoid sharp bends; observe the minimum bend radius specified by the installation standards. Test each installed link with a Level III or better cable certifier to verify performance up to the specified frequency and ensure link compliance.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm that CPR Cca is acceptable for your building code and installation area.
• Ensure connector and patch panel components are compatible with S/FTP shielding and AWG22 conductor size.
• Verify whether an outdoor, plenum, or direct-burial rated cable is required instead.
• Plan for testing equipment capable of certifying performance up to the intended frequencies.

Usage recommendations

For best signal integrity, keep cable runs within recommended length limits for your network equipment, avoid tight bends and heavy compression, and preserve shielding continuity at terminations by using shielded connectors and proper grounding practices.
