Networking cable Alcasa 25m Cat6 S/FTP

The Alcasa 25m Cat6 S/FTP networking cable by Good Connections is a 25 metre grey Ethernet cable designed for reliable wired network links. Constructed to Cat6 performance class with S/FTP shielding, it reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk to maintain stable data transmission. The cable comes terminated with RJ-45 connectors featuring gold-plated contacts for consistent connectivity and corrosion resistance. This cable is suitable for environments that require high-speed data transfer and robust signal integrity over a medium run length.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding combines an overall screen with individually shielded pairs to improve protection against external noise and pair-to-pair interference. Cat6 specification supports higher bandwidth compared with earlier categories, making the cable fit for Gigabit Ethernet networks. Gold-plated contacts on the RJ-45 plugs ensure lower contact resistance and longer service life in typical home and office conditions. The 25 m length allows flexible placement of networked devices without relying on wireless links.

Suitable for

• Wired connections between routers, switches and desktop computers within homes and offices
• Connecting networked printers, NAS drives and media players to the local network
• Structured cabling runs where a 25 m length is required without intermediate patch panels
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference for stable Gigabit transfers

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6 performance class
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall shield plus individually shielded pairs)
• Length: 25 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45

How to use

Route the Alcasa Cat6 S/FTP cable between network equipment ensuring gentle bends and avoiding tight kinks. Insert each RJ-45 connector fully into the device port until it clicks to establish a secure connection. For optimal performance, keep the cable separated from high-voltage power lines and large electrical equipment that may cause interference. Test the link with a network tester or by verifying connectivity on connected devices to confirm proper operation.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use the cable for Gigabit Ethernet or lower-speed links and avoid running it parallel to mains power cables; if crossing is necessary, do so at a 90° angle. Inspect connectors for damage before installation and replace the cable if the jacket or plugs show visible wear. Store unused cable coiled loosely to prevent deformation.
