Equip Cat.6A S/FTP Outdoor Patch Cable, 50m, RJ-45, Black

The Equip Cat.6A S/FTP Outdoor Patch Cable is a high-performance networking solution engineered for reliable data transmission in challenging environments. With a length of 50 meters, this cable provides the necessary reach for connecting outdoor equipment, surveillance cameras, or remote network access points while maintaining a stable 10 Gbit/s connection speed. The cable is constructed with high-quality materials to ensure durability and consistent performance across various outdoor conditions.

Advantages

This cable features advanced S/FTP shielding, which combines individual pair shielding with an overall braid to effectively minimize electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. This ensures that data integrity remains high even in environments with potential signal noise. The rugged LDPE jacket is specifically designed to resist UV radiation, oil, and moisture, allowing the cable to function reliably within a wide temperature range. The inclusion of molded boots with strain relief further protects the connectors from physical stress, ensuring a long service life for your network installation.

Suitable for

• Outdoor surveillance and security camera systems
• Connecting remote Wi-Fi access points
• Industrial networking and IoT device connectivity
• High-speed residential or commercial outdoor network extensions

This cable may not be suitable for indoor applications where a flexible, non-LDPE jacket is preferred, as the outdoor-rated material is stiffer and less pliable than standard indoor patch cables. Additionally, it is not intended for direct burial unless placed within appropriate protective conduit.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 50 m
• Standard: Cat.6A
• Shielding: S/FTP (S-STP)
• Connectors: 2 x RJ-45
• Data transfer rate: 10 Gbit/s
• Bandwidth: 500 MHz
• Jacket material: LDPE (Outdoor rated)
• Operating temperature: -40°C to 65°C
• Color: Black

To use the cable, simply connect the RJ-45 plugs into the corresponding ports on your networking hardware. Ensure that the cable is routed away from sharp edges and is properly secured using cable ties or clips to prevent mechanical strain on the connectors. If the cable is being used in a permanent outdoor installation, it is recommended to use cable glands or weather-resistant enclosures to protect the connection points from direct water ingress.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required length for your installation to ensure 50 meters is sufficient.
• Check if your networking equipment supports Cat.6A speeds for optimal performance.
• Ensure the routing path allows for the cable's minimum bend radius.
• Confirm that the RJ-45 ports are accessible and protected from direct environmental exposure.

Usage recommendations: For optimal performance and longevity, avoid sharp bends during installation and ensure that the cable is not subjected to excessive tension. If installing in areas with high UV exposure or extreme weather, secure the cable firmly to prevent vibration-induced wear.
