LANBERG Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP) networking cable PCF6-10CU-2000-B, blue, 20 m, RJ-45, 1000 Mbit/s

LANBERG Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP) networking cable PCF6-10CU-2000-B is a 20 m patch cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends designed for Gigabit Ethernet (1000 Mbit/s). The cable features S/FTP shielding: an overall braided screen combined with individually foil-shielded twisted pairs, and is manufactured from copper conductors. It is intended for reliable wired connections in office, data center and home networking environments where reduced electromagnetic interference and stable throughput are required.

Advantages

The S/FTP (S-STP) construction provides enhanced protection against external electromagnetic interference and crosstalk between pairs, improving signal integrity over the full 20 m length. Copper conductors ensure consistent electrical conductivity and mechanical flexibility for straightforward routing and installation. The cable is suitable for standard RJ-45 terminations and supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds, delivering predictable performance for structured cabling and patching applications.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and patch panels in office networks
• Server room and data center patching where shielded cabling is preferred
• Home network connections requiring reliable wired Gigabit throughput
• Workstations and networked devices in environments with potential EMI

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid + individually foil-shielded pairs)
• Length: 20 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 male — both ends
• Rated data rate: up to 1000 Mbit/s (Gigabit Ethernet)
• Conductor material: copper

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network device (switch, router, NIC or patch panel) and the other connector into the corresponding port on the remote device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and areas of strong electromagnetic noise; maintain appropriate bend radius to prevent strain on the RJ-45 plugs. For permanent installations, use cable management accessories such as trays or organizers to keep the run tidy and to prevent excessive tension on the cable.

Usage recommendations

Use this LANBERG Cat6 S/FTP cable for horizontal and equipment-level patching in installations where additional shielding is needed to limit interference. When connecting shielded components, ensure proper grounding of the cable shields according to site cabling practices. Avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines for long distances to minimize potential noise coupling.
