LANBERG Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP) networking cable RJ-45–RJ-45 15 m Green

LANBERG Cat6a S/FTP (S-STP) networking cable, 15 m, with RJ-45 connectors on both ends and a green jacket for easy identification. The cable uses S/FTP (also described as S-STP) shielding: an overall braid plus individual foil around each twisted pair. It is designed for high-speed LAN links and structured cabling where reduced crosstalk and improved immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI) are required. Suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and connections between switches, servers, patch panels and desktops.

Advantages

The shielded S/FTP construction provides both overall and per-pair screening, which reduces near-end and far-end crosstalk and decreases susceptibility to external EMI sources. The 15 m length covers typical inter-rack and room-to-room runs without intermediate patch panels. Factory-terminated RJ-45 connectors on both ends ensure plug-and-play installation in standard Ethernet ports. The green jacket improves visual identification in dense cable runs and simplifies cable management.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links within data centers and server rooms
• Structured cabling between patch panels, switches and workstations
• Connections where reduced electromagnetic interference is required
• Situations where a 15 m pre-terminated cable eliminates the need for on-site termination

When it may not be suitable

This cable is shielded and therefore stiffer and less flexible than unshielded alternatives; it may be more difficult to route in very tight bends or densely packed conduits. If you need very short runs, ultra-flexible cabling for patch panels in crowded racks, or a different color for visual standards, this specific 15 m green cable may not match those needs.

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid + foil around each pair)
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45, factory-terminated
• Length: 15 m
• Colour: Green jacket for identification
• Intended data rates: up to 10 Gbps over suitable installations

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to the network interface, switch or patch panel port and the other RJ-45 end to the corresponding device. Avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force during installation to preserve shielding integrity and conductor performance. When routing alongside power cables, maintain separation or appropriate cable management to minimize potential interference despite the cable's shielding. Verify link speed and connectivity after installation using network diagnostics or link LEDs on devices.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that 15 m is the required run length to avoid excess slack or insufficient reach
• Confirm that shielded cable is acceptable in your environment and that connected equipment or patch panels support shielded connections
• Check color-coding policies in your installation to ensure green jacket fits your scheme

Usage recommendations

For best performance, use the LANBERG Cat6a S/FTP cable for backbone and inter-rack 10 Gbps links, terminate to shielded patch panels or equipment that support grounding of the shield, and avoid sharp bends or compressive stress that could damage the shielding or conductors.
