Networking Cable Alcasa 8060-SF075 Grey 7.5 m Cat6a S/FTP

The Good Connections Networking Cable Alcasa 8060-SF075 Grey 7.5 m Cat6a S/FTP is a 7.5-metre patch cable engineered for wired Ethernet links that require the Cat6a performance level. It uses S/FTP (overall foil with individually braided or shielded pairs) shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and maintain signal integrity over the cable length. Both ends are fitted with RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts to support reliable mating and consistent data transmission. The cable’s grey jacket offers a neutral appearance suitable for residential and commercial installations.

Advantages

The Alcasa 8060-SF075 provides Cat6a-class performance suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet in many typical environments while S/FTP shielding helps limit crosstalk and external interference. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts improve corrosion resistance and contact reliability. The 7.5 m length covers medium-distance connections between network devices without excess cable slack, and the grey outer jacket blends into standard office or home setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers, and patch panels within small offices or home networks
• High-speed Ethernet links requiring Cat6a performance up to the cable’s operational limits
• Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is needed
• Cabling runs where a 7.5 m length fits the workspace without requiring additional extension

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not intended for runs longer than its 7.5 m length; longer-distance links require appropriately sized cables or intermediate network equipment. It also does not replace fibre-optic cabling where very long distances or immunity to electromagnetic interference are required. For applications demanding fire-rated or plenum-rated jackets, verify the jacket specification from the supplier since this product data only specifies colour and length.

Key specifications

• Cable standard: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually shielded pairs)
• Length: 7.5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Colour: Grey

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into a network device such as a switch, router, or computer, and the other end into the target device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends, tight loops, or compression, and keep it separated from power cables where possible to minimize interference. For permanent installations, use cable management accessories to support and protect the cable along its run.

What to consider before purchase

• Required cable length and whether 7.5 m is sufficient for your installation
• Whether Cat6a performance and S/FTP shielding meet your network speed and interference requirements
• Connector compatibility with your devices (RJ-45 on both ends)
• Jacket type and environmental requirements (indoor use, fire rating) if relevant to your site

Usage recommendations

For best performance, avoid bending the cable sharply, keep it away from high-voltage power lines, and use appropriate patch panels or jacks for structured cabling. Test connections after installation with a network tester to confirm link speed and integrity.
