Network patch cable LANBERG Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP) RJ-45–RJ-45 20 m Black

LANBERG Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP) RJ-45–RJ-45 20 m Black is a 20-metre Category 6 Ethernet patch cable designed for Gigabit networks. The cable features S/FTP shielding (overall foil with individually shielded twisted pairs), clear RJ-45 connectors on both ends and a flexible LSZH outer jacket. It is intended for reliable connections in homes, offices and server racks where reduced crosstalk and protection against electromagnetic interference are required. The cable supports data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s and is manufactured from copper conductors for consistent signal transmission.

Advantages

The S/FTP (S‑STP) construction provides superior protection against external electromagnetic interference and minimizes alien crosstalk between pairs, improving signal integrity over the 20 m length. A LSZH jacket reduces hazardous smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire, increasing safety in enclosed spaces. Copper conductors ensure stable conductivity and durability, while standard RJ-45 terminations guarantee compatibility with common network devices. The cable is Fluke-tested to verify performance parameters and meet professional installation requirements.

Suitable for

• Gigabit Ethernet connections between switches, routers and workstations
• Patching in server racks and network cabinets
• Office and home LAN wiring requiring reduced EMI and crosstalk
• Temporary or permanent connections where LSZH safety is preferred

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of a switch, router or network interface card and the other into the corresponding port on the connected device. Route the cable through cable management or trays as required, avoiding tight bends and sources of strong electromagnetic fields. For rack installations, secure the cable with appropriate ties or organizers to maintain bend radius and to prevent strain at connector ends. Verify link status on connected equipment and, where necessary, test the installed link with certification or verification tools.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, maintain the recommended minimum bend radius and avoid running the cable parallel and close to high-voltage power lines. Use the cable within standard Cat6 channel length limits for the intended application, and perform post-installation testing with certified testers if used in professional or mission-critical environments.
