Gembird PP6A-LSZHCU-V-30M Cat6 S/FTP Networking Cable 30m Violet

The Gembird PP6A-LSZHCU-V-30M is a high-performance 30-meter Cat6A S/FTP networking cable engineered for stable and high-speed data transmission. This patch cord features advanced double shielding to effectively minimize electromagnetic interference, ensuring a reliable connection in demanding network environments. Equipped with gold-plated RJ-45 connectors, it provides superior signal conductivity and long-term durability for professional and home office setups.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this cable is its robust S/FTP construction, which utilizes both individual foil shielding for pairs and an overall braid shield to protect data integrity against external noise. The inclusion of a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket makes this cable a safer choice for indoor installations, as it emits minimal smoke and no toxic halogens in the event of fire. The 30-meter length offers significant flexibility for connecting hardware across larger rooms or office spaces without compromising signal quality.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers to wall outlets or switches
• Linking routers and modems in home or office networks
• Professional network installations requiring high interference protection
• Environments where fire safety standards mandate LSZH cabling

When it may not be suitable

This cable may not be suitable for outdoor use, as the LSZH jacket is not designed to withstand prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, moisture, or extreme temperature fluctuations. Additionally, for very short distances, a 30-meter cable may result in excess slack that requires careful cable management to avoid tangles.

Key specifications

• Cable Category: Cat 6A
• Shielding Type: S/FTP (Screened Foiled Twisted Pair)
• Length: 30 meters
• Jacket Material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Connector Type: RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Color: Violet

How to use

To use the cable, simply insert the RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of your networking device, such as a router, switch, or computer, until you hear a distinct click. Ensure that the cable is routed away from high-voltage power lines to maintain optimal signal performance. When disconnecting, press the plastic locking tab on the connector to release it safely from the port.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required length to ensure 30 meters is sufficient for your layout
• Check if your networking equipment supports Cat 6A standards for maximum speed
• Ensure the violet color fits your cable management or color-coding scheme

Usage recommendations

For the best performance, avoid bending the cable at sharp angles or crushing it under heavy furniture, as this can damage the internal shielding and reduce data transmission speeds.
