Network patchcord Gembird RJ45 Cat 6A FTP LSZH 3 m green

Gembird RJ45 Cat 6A FTP LSZH 3 m green patchcord is a shielded Ethernet cable designed for high-speed LAN environments. The cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet over a 3 meter length and features foil shielding (FTP) to reduce electromagnetic interference. The outer jacket is made from low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) material in green, offering a safer option for installations in offices, data centers and residential spaces where reduced smoke and toxic emission in the event of fire is preferred.

Advantages

The shielded twisted-pair construction and foil shielding provide improved protection against external electromagnetic interference and crosstalk compared with unshielded alternatives. Cat 6A performance enables reliable 10 Gbps connections at short runs, while the LSZH jacket lowers the release of smoke and halogenated gases under thermal stress. The pre-terminated RJ45 connectors ensure quick, plug-and-play installation and the 3 m length offers flexibility for rack, desk and patch panel routing in confined setups.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in server rooms and data centers
• High-speed connections between switches and patch panels
• Office and home networks requiring improved EMI protection
• Environments with fire-safety requirements where LSZH cabling is specified

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat 6A (augmented performance for 10 Gbps)
• Shielding: FTP (foil-shielded twisted pair)
• Jacket material: LSZH (low smoke zero halogen)
• Length: 3 meters
• Connector type: RJ45, pre-terminated
• Color: green

How to use

Connect one RJ45 end to your network device (switch, router, NIC or patch panel) and the other end to the corresponding port on the second device. Ensure both connected ports support the link speed and that cable routing avoids tight bends, sharp edges and sources of strong electromagnetic interference. For rack installations, secure excess cable length with appropriate cable management to prevent strain on the connectors and maintain signal integrity.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat 6A FTP LSZH patchcord for short runs up to its rated length between active equipment in controlled environments. Avoid running the cable in direct proximity to high-voltage power lines or equipment that generates strong electromagnetic fields. When deploying in permanent installations, verify compatibility with your existing shielding grounding practice to maintain the effectiveness of FTP shielding.
