Networking Cable Alcasa 10m Cat6 S/FTP

The Alcasa 10m Cat6 S/FTP networking cable is a 10 m Ethernet cable designed for reliable wired network connections. It uses Cat6 transmission characteristics and S/FTP shielding (overall braid with individual foil around pairs) to reduce electromagnetic interference and maintain signal integrity. The cable is terminated with RJ-45 connectors featuring gold-plated contacts for consistent contact quality and corrosion resistance. The cable's green jacket provides visual identification within patch panels and structured cabling installations.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding improves resistance to external noise and crosstalk compared with unshielded cables, which helps sustain stable throughput in environments with electronic equipment or nearby power lines. Cat6 performance supports gigabit Ethernet networks and higher transmission margins for modern network devices. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts ensure durable mating with ports and help prevent oxidation over time. The 10 m length offers flexibility for connections between wall outlets, switches, routers, and desktop devices without intermediate patch panels.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, laptops, smart TVs and game consoles to switches or routers
• Office and home gigabit Ethernet links requiring reduced interference
• Temporary or permanent workstation cabling where a visible cable colour is useful
• Network testing, small server room patching, and AV installations

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid + foil around each twisted pair)
• Length: 10 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 at both ends
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Colour: green jacket
• Typical use: Ethernet up to gigabit speeds

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end of the Alcasa Cat6 S/FTP cable to the Ethernet port of your network device (such as a switch, router or wall outlet) and the other end to the device you want to network (PC, NAS, smart TV, etc.). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click to secure the connection. Avoid sharp bends or kinks near the ends and maintain a gentle bend radius along the cable to preserve shielding and pair geometry. When routing alongside power cables, prefer separate conduits or a small separation distance to minimize potential interference.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat6 S/FTP cable in installations where shielding is beneficial, keep connector contacts clean and dry, and avoid stretching or crimping the cable. If terminating into patch panels or keystone jacks, verify compatibility with Cat6 specifications and preserve pair orientation and twist as close to the termination point as possible.
