Networking Cable Lindy Cat.6 S/FTP RJ-45 7.5m Yellow

The Lindy Cat.6 S/FTP RJ-45 7.5m Yellow is a 7.5 metre network cable designed for reliable gigabit and near-gigabit Ethernet connections. It uses RJ-45 terminations with gold-plated contacts to improve conductivity and resist corrosion. The cable construction features S/FTP shielding (overall braid with individually foil-shielded pairs) to reduce alien crosstalk and electromagnetic interference, helping maintain signal integrity in crowded cable environments. The yellow outer jacket makes the cable easy to identify in patch panels and behind equipment while providing durable insulation for everyday use.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding offers improved protection against external interference and pair-to-pair crosstalk, supporting stable high-speed data transfer. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts enhance contact reliability and minimise oxidation for long-term performance. The 7.5 metre length provides flexibility for typical office and home layouts without excess cable slack. The colored jacket simplifies cable management and identification in multi-cable installations.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Wired Ethernet connections for desktop PCs, workstations and networked printers
• Patch connections between switches, routers and patch panels
• Home network installations where visible cable routing and identification are needed
• Environments with moderate electromagnetic interference where shielded cabling is preferred

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.6
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with foil-shielded pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Length: 7.5 m
• Outer jacket colour: Yellow

How to use

Plug the RJ-45 connector securely into the network port of your device or networking equipment until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and run it away from high-voltage power lines to minimise potential interference. If used in a rack or patch panel, label both ends as needed for easy identification. For installations that require concealment, follow local guidelines for cable routing and securing; the jacket is suitable for standard indoor use but not for permanent outdoor burial.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, avoid kinking the cable and maintain bend radii greater than the manufacturer’s minimum. Use shielded connectors and grounded equipment when deploying in environments with significant electromagnetic interference to fully benefit from S/FTP shielding.
