Networking Cable Connect 858521 Purple 7.5 m Cat6a S/FTP

The Exertis Connect 858521 Purple 7.5 m Cat6a S/FTP networking cable is a shielded Ethernet lead designed for stable high-speed data links. Compliant with Cat6a performance, the cable uses S/FTP (shielded foil twisted pair) construction to reduce crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference. Each end is terminated with a standard RJ-45 connector, enabling straightforward connection to routers, switches, network cards and other Ethernet-enabled equipment. The cable’s 7.5 m length and distinctive purple color make it easy to route and identify within patch panels, server rooms and home networks.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding provides improved protection against near-end crosstalk and external noise compared with unshielded cables, supporting more reliable transmission at higher frequencies consistent with Cat6a specifications. With RJ-45 terminations on both ends, installation is plug-and-play without additional adapters. The 7.5 m length offers flexibility for typical desktop-to-switch runs or equipment rearrangements while the visible purple jacket simplifies cable management and identification in multi-cable environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers, printers and network devices to switches or routers
• Patch panel and rack installations in small server rooms or telecom closets
• Home office and multimedia setups that require stable gigabit or 10 Gigabit-ready connections
• Environments where cable identification and colour-coding are beneficial

Key specifications

• Cable length: 7.5 m
• Standard: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall shield plus individually shielded pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 on both ends
• Jacket colour: Purple

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of your device and the other connector into the port of a switch, router or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and sharp edges; maintain gentle curves and avoid running parallel to power cables where possible to minimize interference. For permanent installations, use appropriate cable management such as clips or cable ties to secure the cable and prevent strain on the connectors.

For best performance, verify that connected equipment and network infrastructure support Cat6a speeds and that patch panels and keystone jacks are rated for shielded cabling. When using the S/FTP cable in areas with possible ground potential differences, ensure proper grounding of shielded components to avoid signal issues.
