Patch Cable ExertisConnect 858752 RJ45 Cat. 6A 3.0m Grey

The ExertisConnect 858752 RJ45 Cat. 6A 3.0m grey patch cable is a structured networking cable designed for shielded twisted-pair (S/FTP) environments where high-speed data transmission and signal integrity are required. With a 3.0 metre length and Cat 6A performance, this cable supports multi-gigabit Ethernet links and offers halogen-free materials for reduced smoke and toxic emissions in case of fire. The grey jacket and compact RJ45 connectors suit professional installations in offices, server rooms and home networks.

Advantages

The cable provides Cat 6A bandwidth suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over 100 metres in compliant installations, and the S/FTP construction reduces alien crosstalk and external interference. A locking mechanism on the RJ45 plug secures the connection in patch panels and switches, while the flexible jacket facilitates cable routing in confined spaces. Halogen-free materials minimise harmful emissions and comply with safety-conscious installations.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in office and data centre environments
• High-performance home networks, media streaming and gaming setups
• Patch panels, switches and wall outlets requiring secure RJ45 connections
• Environments where reduced smoke and toxic emissions are preferred

Key specifications

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to the network device (switch, router or modem) and the other plug to the end device or patch panel. Ensure both connectors are fully inserted until the locking latch engages to maintain a reliable connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; use cable management accessories where necessary to prevent strain. For optimal performance, keep the cable separated from large power cables and sources of electromagnetic interference.

Usage recommendations

Use this ExertisConnect Cat 6A patch cable for short to medium-length links within racks, between equipment and to wall outlets; verify compatibility with your networking hardware and maintain bend radius and strain relief guidelines to preserve performance.
