Lanberg PCF6A-10CU-0150-BK networking cable Black 1.5 m Cat6a S/FTP

The Lanberg PCF6A-10CU-0150-BK networking cable is a 1.5 m Cat6a S/FTP patch cable in black, intended for high-speed Ethernet connections and structured cabling that requires enhanced shielding. Constructed with 100% copper conductors (27 AWG, 7 x 0.135 mm), an LSZH jacket and a compact 6.0 mm outer diameter, the cable supports frequencies up to 500 MHz and data rates up to 10 Gb/s. The S/FTP design combines an overall braided shield with foil around each pair to reduce crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference, making it suitable for demanding network environments that conform to ISO/IEC 11801 class Ea and ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B compatibility.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding provides improved protection against electromagnetic interference and pair-to-pair crosstalk compared with unshielded cable types, contributing to stable throughput at high frequencies. The use of 100% copper conductors ensures low attenuation and reliable signal transmission for gigabit and 10-gigabit Ethernet applications. The LSZH outer jacket reduces the emission of toxic or corrosive gases in the event of a fire, which is relevant for installations in public buildings and confined spaces. A slim 6.0 mm diameter and a 1.5 m length make this cable practical for short patching runs between equipment in racks, workstations, and small office setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and servers in rack or cabinet environments
• Patching between wall outlets and desktop devices in offices
• High-speed links for network testing and lab setups
• Environments requiring reduced smoke and halogen emissions

How to use

Use the cable to connect network devices such as switches, routers, servers, or PCs by inserting the RJ45 connectors into the appropriate ports until they click. For optimal performance maintain short, direct patch runs where the 1.5 m length is sufficient and avoid excessive bending or sharp kinks; follow typical cable bend radius recommendations relative to the cable diameter. Ensure that shielded connectors and properly grounded equipment are used when deploying S/FTP cable in order to preserve shielding effectiveness.

Usage recommendations

For reliable 10 Gb/s performance, keep patch lengths within recommended limits and avoid running the cable alongside high-voltage power lines. When installing in multi-cable bundles or metallic conduits, verify grounding and shielding continuity. Choose shielded RJ45 jacks and patch panels for full S/FTP functionality and use the LSZH-rated jacket in areas where low smoke and halogen-free materials are required.
