Patch Cable ExertisConnect 854500 RJ45 Cat. 6A 0.15m Grey

The ExertisConnect 854500 RJ45 Cat. 6A 0.15m Grey patch cable is a compact network cable engineered for short-distance, high-performance Ethernet connections. Constructed with S/FTP shielding, this cable reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk to maintain stable data transmission. Its halogen-free jacket enhances safety in enclosed environments, and GRS certification indicates compliance with established environmental standards. The short 0.15 m length is intended for connections in dense rack layouts, patch panels, or between adjacent devices where minimal cable slack is required.

Advantages

The cable's S/FTP shielding provides improved protection against external noise and internal pair-to-pair interference, supporting reliable high-speed data transfer. The Cat. 6A specification allows for greater bandwidth and supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet over short distances. A halogen-free outer sheath reduces toxic gas emission in case of fire, improving safety in installations. The compact 0.15 m length minimizes clutter and improves airflow in server cabinets and networking enclosures. GRS certification reflects partial use of recycled materials and adherence to circular economy criteria.

Suitable for

• Short interconnects between network switches, patch panels, and servers in dense racks
• Connections behind wall-mounted network equipment and compact workstations
• Patch cabling within data centers and telecommunications rooms where minimal cable length is required
• Environments requiring halogen-free materials for enhanced safety

• Connector type: RJ45 on both ends
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with individually foil-shielded pairs)
• Length: 0.15 m
• Color: Grey
• Jacket material: Halogen-free
• Suitable for: 10 Gigabit Ethernet at short distances

How to use

Use the ExertisConnect Cat. 6A patch cable to connect network devices that are positioned close to each other, such as adjacent ports on switches, patch panels, or servers. Insert RJ45 connectors firmly into matching ports until an audible click confirms proper seating. Avoid excessive bending near the connector ends and maintain manufacturer-recommended bend radius to preserve signal integrity. For permanent installations, route the cable to avoid sharp edges and secure gently with cable management accessories to prevent strain on the connectors.

Usage recommendations

Choose this 0.15 m patch cable where short, high-performance links are needed and space is limited. For runs longer than a few meters, select an appropriately rated Cat. 6A or higher cable of sufficient length to maintain performance. Inspect connectors before use and replace any cable with visible damage to the jacket or connectors to ensure reliable operation.
