LANBERG networking cable Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP) RJ-45–RJ-45 Yellow 0.5 m

LANBERG networking cable Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP) RJ-45–RJ-45 Yellow 0.5 m is a shielded Cat6 patch cable designed for short links between switches, patch panels and network devices. The 0.5 m length suits compact rack and cabinet connections where minimal slack is required. Construction uses S/FTP shielding with foil around each pair plus an overall braid, stranded copper conductors and LSZH jacket material to reduce smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire. The cable supports Gigabit Ethernet transmission up to 1000 Mbit/s and features RJ-45 straight male connectors on both ends in a yellow jacket for easy visual identification.

Advantages

The S/FTP (S-STP) design provides enhanced protection against electromagnetic interference and crosstalk through individual pair foil and an overall braided shield. Stranded pure copper conductors maintain flexibility for short patch leads while ensuring reliable signal transmission. The LSZH outer sheath reduces toxic and corrosive emissions under high temperatures, meeting safer installation requirements in public and commercial buildings. Compliance verified with Fluke testing ensures that the cable meets defined Category 6 performance parameters for consistent network operation.

Suitable for

• Short patch links in server racks and network cabinets
• Connections between switches, patch panels and rack-mounted equipment
• Office and data closet environments requiring LSZH materials
• Gigabit Ethernet connections up to 1000 Mbit/s

How to use

Install the cable by plugging the RJ-45 connectors into the corresponding ports on switches, patch panels or network devices until the latch clicks. Use this 0.5 m patch cord for short-distance connections within racks or between adjacent devices to minimize cable clutter. Avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling forces during installation; maintain gentle bend radii and secure the cable to cable management elements to prevent mechanical stress on connectors.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, use the LANBERG Cat6 S/FTP cable in short interconnects inside cabinets and racks where shielding is needed. Keep separation from high-voltage power cables where possible and verify link operation with network testing tools after installation. Replace damaged cables and avoid routing through areas with strong electromagnetic sources to maintain stable Gigabit Ethernet connections.
