Lanview Cat6a HIGH-FLEX S/FTP Outdoor Network Cable 80 m Black RJ-45 Gold contacts

Lanview Cat6a HIGH-FLEX S/FTP Outdoor Network Cable is an 80 m PUR-sheathed patch cable engineered for industrial and outdoor use. The PUR jacket provides resistance to UV, oil, acids, microbes, chemicals and hydrolysis while maintaining high flexibility. The cable meets Class EA (500 MHz) performance and supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet, making it suitable for voice, data and video systems in harsh environments.

Advantages

The PUR outer jacket combines durability with a very soft, flexible feel that simplifies routing in confined or moving installations. Shielding and construction deliver S/FTP (S‑STP) protection against external interference, and the cable is rated for operation across a wide temperature range from -40° to 85°C. It is Fluke DSX‑8000 channel compliant for reliable Class EA performance.

Suitable for

• Outdoor network runs requiring weather and UV resistance
• Industrial installations exposed to oil, chemicals or microbes
• High-speed LAN backbones and 10 Gigabit Ethernet links
• Voice, data and video transmission in harsh environments
• Flexible patching where repeated bending or movement occurs

When it may not be suitable

This cable is optimized for outdoor and industrial use; it may be excessive for simple indoor home networking where standard PVC‑sheathed Cat6a or lower-category cables would suffice. It is not intended as a direct substitute for fiber-optic runs where very long distances or immunity to electromagnetic interference are required beyond copper limits.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 80 m
• Cable category: Cat6a, Class EA (500 MHz)
• Shielding: S/FTP (individual pair foil with overall braid)
• Connectors: RJ‑45 to RJ‑45, gold-plated contacts
• Maximum data rate: 10 Gbit/s
• Jacket material: PUR (polyurethane) with UV, oil and chemical resistance
• Operating temperature range: -40° to 85°C
• Colour: Black
• Weight: approx. 2.619 kg

How to use

Install the cable as a continuous run between network equipment using standard RJ‑45 patching practices. Ensure connectors are fully seated and secured in ports. When routing outdoors, avoid sharp edges and secure the cable using appropriate clips or ties; if exposed to direct sunlight for long periods, verify that the installation location allows for the cable’s UV‑resistant PUR jacket. For long channel installations, adhere to Cat6a cabling guidelines and maintain proper bend radius to preserve performance.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that Cat6a (10G) copper cabling meets the required distance and bandwidth for your application
• Confirm the 80 m length suits your run without exceeding channel length limits when combined with other patching
• Ensure S/FTP shielding is compatible with your installation practice and grounding requirements
• Consider whether a fiber solution is preferable for longer distances or greater EMI immunity

Usage recommendations

Use the Lanview Cat6a HIGH-FLEX S/FTP cable for outdoor or industrial links where flexibility, chemical and UV resistance are required; maintain recommended bend radius, secure cable against abrasion, and follow Cat6a installation best practices to ensure consistent 10 Gigabit performance.
