LANBERG Cat6a S/FTP Patch Cable PCF6A-10CC-1500-B, 15 m, RJ-45 to RJ-45, LSZH, 500 MHz, CCA, Blue

LANBERG Cat6a S/FTP Patch Cable PCF6A-10CC-1500-B is a 15 m network patch cable designed for horizontal links in offices and data centres. The cable features S/FTP (S‑STP) shielding and supports signals up to 500 MHz, reducing electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. It is terminated with male RJ-45 connectors at both ends, has 26 AWG copper-clad aluminium (CCA) conductors, a low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) jacket and an outer diameter of 6 mm. The cable colour is blue and it is suitable for Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet where CCA conductors are acceptable.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding provides improved protection against external interference compared with unshielded cables, while the 500 MHz frequency rating supports high-speed applications. The LSZH jacket minimises smoke and halogen emissions in case of fire, making the cable appropriate for indoor setups with safety requirements. The 15 m length and standard RJ-45 terminations offer straightforward installation for horizontal runs without additional terminations.

Suitable for

• Horizontal office cabling between switches and workstations
• Data centre patching in cabinets and patch panels
• High-speed Ethernet connections up to 10 Gigabit where CCA conductors are acceptable
• Environments requiring LSZH-rated cabling for reduced smoke and toxic emissions

Key specifications

• Length: 15 m
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with individually shielded pairs)
• Frequency rating: 500 MHz
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, male on both ends
• Conductor size: 26 AWG
• Conductor material: Copper-clad aluminium (CCA)
• Jacket material: Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH)
• Outer diameter: 6 mm
• Colour: Blue

How to use

Plug the RJ-45 connector on one end into the network switch, router or patch panel port and the other end into the target device such as a workstation, server or network appliance. Ensure connectors are fully inserted and that cable routing avoids sharp bends, excessive pulling, and close proximity to strong electrical sources. For permanent horizontal cabling, use appropriate cable management and strain relief at patch panels and patch bays. Verify link speed and duplex settings on connected devices after installation.

Usage recommendations

Use this cable for short to medium patch runs in office and data centre environments. When planning for maximum future-proofing or where standards require pure copper conductors, consider alternatives with solid copper conductors rather than CCA. Maintain bend radius greater than four times the cable diameter and avoid running the cable alongside high-voltage power lines to preserve signal integrity.
