Network patch cable ICIDU Brackton CAT6a SF/UTP 0.25 m Black

ICIDU Brackton CAT6a SF/UTP 0.25 m patch cable in black provides a short, shielded connection for high-speed Ethernet links. The cable uses CAT6a specifications and SF/UTP construction (foil overall plus unshielded twisted pairs) to reduce electromagnetic interference and preserve signal integrity over short distances. It is intended for reliable connections between active networking equipment where CAT6a performance is required in a compact cable length.

Advantages

The shielded SF/UTP design reduces susceptibility to external electromagnetic interference, improving signal stability in environments with nearby power or data cables. CAT6a performance supports higher bandwidth and improved crosstalk characteristics compared with lower category patch cords. The very short 0.25 m length minimizes excess cable clutter, simplifies patch panel and switch-to-switch connections in dense racks, and helps maintain neat cabling runs.

Suitable for

• Short connections between switches, patch panels and servers in racks
• High-speed Ethernet links requiring CAT6a performance
• Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is needed

Key specifications

• Cable category: CAT6a
• Shielding: SF/UTP (overall foil with unshielded pairs)
• Length: 0.25 m
• Color: Black
• Connector type: RJ45 on both ends
• Typical use: Ethernet data transmission up to CAT6a performance

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to the network port on the switch, patch panel or network device and the other plug to the corresponding port on the target device. Ensure connectors are fully seated to achieve proper contact. Use the short 0.25 m cable for direct, point-to-point connections in racks or patch panels where a minimal cable loop is required. Avoid sharp bends at the connector exits and do not subject the cable to tensile stress or crushing.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use this CAT6a SF/UTP cable in shielded or mixed-cable environments where EMI may affect unshielded links. Keep cable runs as short as possible for patching in dense racks, and pair with compatible CAT6a-rated equipment and properly grounded racks to maintain shielding effectiveness.
