EFB Elektronik RJ45 Patch Cable S/FTP Cat.6 LSZH 0.15m Yellow

EFB Elektronik RJ45 Patch Cable S/FTP Cat.6 LSZH 0.15m Yellow is a short, shielded network cable designed for high-speed Ethernet connections in confined or dense cabling environments. The cable supports Category 6 performance with S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference, and gold-plated RJ45 connectors ensure stable contact and corrosion resistance. The LSZH (low smoke zero halogen) jacket reduces harmful emissions in case of fire, making the cable suitable for indoor installations where safety regulations are important.

Advantages

The cable's S/FTP construction combines an overall foil shield with individually screened pairs to provide improved protection against crosstalk and external interference compared with unshielded options. At 0.15 m length, the patch cable enables tidy connections between adjacent ports or equipment in patch panels and networking racks without excess cable slack. Gold-plated contacts improve signal reliability and reduce oxidation over time, while the yellow jacket provides clear visual identification in structured cabling systems. The LSZH sheath minimizes toxic smoke and halogen emissions, supporting compliance with safety-sensitive environments.

Suitable for

• Patch connections between switches, servers, and patch panels in racks
• Short interconnects in telecommunications cabinets and data centres
• Environments requiring reduced smoke and halogen exposure (indoor)
• Situations requiring improved EMI/RFI protection for Cat6 links

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.6 (Class E)
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually screened pairs)
• Length: 0.15 m
• Connectors: 8P8C (RJ45) on both ends with gold-plated contacts
• Jacket type: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Colour: Yellow

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to the network device or patch panel port and the other RJ45 plug to the corresponding port on the second device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a secure mechanical and electrical connection. Use the short 0.15 m length for direct port-to-port connections to avoid excess cable loops; avoid tight bends at the connector entry to maintain shielding and pair integrity. Inspect connectors and cable jacket for damage before installation.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat.6 S/FTP patch cable in shielded installations where grounding practices are observed. Maintain bend radii greater than the cable diameter, and avoid routing alongside high-voltage power lines where possible. Select cable colour coding, such as yellow, to match your site’s labeling scheme and simplify network identification and maintenance.
