Network Cable Lindy 0.5m Cat.6A RJ-45 S/FTP Grey

The Lindy 0.5m Cat.6A RJ-45 S/FTP Locking Network Cable is a shielded Ethernet patch cable with a locking security key to prevent accidental or unauthorised removal. Designed for 10GBase-T networks, the cable supports frequencies up to 500 MHz and uses S/FTP construction (braid overall shield with foil around each pair) for reduced interference. The grey, 0.5 m cable features gold-plated RJ-45 contacts and a snagless strain-relief design, and the LSZH (halogen-free) sheath reduces smoke and toxic emissions, making it suitable for public spaces.

Advantages

The locking plug provides tamper-resistant physical security and can only be removed using the supplied key. S/FTP shielding and Cat.6A specification support 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance up to 500 MHz while minimising crosstalk and external interference. Gold-plated contacts ensure corrosion resistance and long-term reliable connections, and the snagless strain relief reduces the risk of connector damage during installation. The LSZH jacket offers low smoke and no halogen emissions for safer use in shared or enclosed environments.

Suitable for

• High-speed Ethernet connections up to 10GBase-T
• Patch panels, switches and network devices in data centres and offices
• Environments where cable removal must be restricted or secured
• Public spaces or enclosed areas requiring low-smoke, halogen-free cabling

How to use

Insert the RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port until the locking mechanism engages. To secure the connection, use the supplied security key to lock the plug in place; the cable can only be removed with that key. When routing, avoid sharp bends and maintain recommended bend radius for Cat.6A to preserve performance. For installation in panels or cabinets, pass the cable through strain-relief points and ensure the snagless boot protects the latch during handling.

Usage recommendations

Use this Lindy Cat.6A locking cable where a secure, high-performance Ethernet link is required. Verify that connected devices support 10GBase-T if full 10 Gbps throughput is needed. For permanent or concealed installations, confirm access to the supplied key to avoid accidental lockouts.
