Networking Cable Helos 263806 Black 7.5m Cat6a S/FTP

The Helos 263806 Black 7.5m Cat6a S/FTP networking cable is a performance-oriented Ethernet cable designed for reliable high-speed data transmission. With a 7.5 meter length and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors on both ends, this Cat6a cable supports modern wired networks where reduced interference and stable connections are required. Its S/FTP (shielded/foiled twisted pair) construction provides individual pair foil shielding plus an overall braid, delivering improved protection against crosstalk and external electromagnetic noise while maintaining a discrete black appearance suitable for home and office installations.

Advantages

The cable’s S/FTP shielding reduces near-end and far-end crosstalk and helps maintain consistent signal quality over the full 7.5 m length. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors offer corrosion resistance and reliable contact for frequent plugging cycles. The Cat6a specification supports higher bandwidth and better performance compared with lower-category cables, making it suitable for 1 Gbps and multi-gigabit applications where cable structure and shielding affect throughput. A black jacket provides a professional look and easier cable management in visible installations.

Suitable for

• Wired Ethernet connections between routers, switches and PCs
• High-speed home and small office networks
• Streaming media and online gaming with reduced interference
• Structured cabling runs where shielded cables are preferred

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (individual pair foil + overall braid)
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Cable length: 7.5 m
• Color: Black

How to use

Connect one gold-plated RJ-45 connector to your network device (router, switch or modem) and the other to the target device such as a PC, NAS or access point. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and tight kinks; maintain gentle curves to preserve internal pair twist and shielding performance. For installations near heavy electrical equipment, position the cable to minimize parallel runs with mains wiring to reduce potential interference. Test the link after installation with a network tester or by verifying connection speed in the device network settings.

Usage recommendations

The cable is intended for indoor use in typical residential and office environments. For best results, avoid running the cable outdoors or in permanently wet locations and do not subject it to excessive pulling force during installation. When integrating into structured cabling, consider grounding practices for shielded systems per local standards and pair this cable with compatible shielded connectors and patch panels to preserve S/FTP effectiveness.
