Ethernet cable Lindy Cat.6A S/FTP 1.5 m, RJ-45 to RJ-45, grey

Lindy Cat.6A S/FTP Ethernet cable, 1.5 m long, with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. The cable features S/FTP shielding (overall braid plus foil on each twisted pair) to minimise electromagnetic interference and support reliable wired LAN connections. Designed for high-speed networks, it supports bandwidths up to 500 MHz and 10 Gigabit Ethernet standards while using a TPE jacket for increased flexibility and durability. Contacts are nickel/gold plated to resist corrosion and ensure stable connectivity. This cable is produced with over 50% recycled material and is GRS certified; packaging is made from recycled material.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding reduces crosstalk and external EMI, which helps maintain signal integrity in busy or electrically noisy installations. The TPE jacket offers higher flexibility and improved impact and tear resistance compared with standard PVC, simplifying routing in racks and conduits. Gold-plated connector contacts provide corrosion resistance for long-term reliability. The integrated snagless strain relief protects the connector latch during installation and removal. The use of recycled materials and GRS certification lowers environmental impact without compromising performance.

Suitable for

• Wired Ethernet connections in offices, server rooms and home networks
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links and Cat6a network installations
• Environments with elevated electromagnetic interference (industrial or densely cabled spaces)
• Patch panels, switches and network devices requiring short interconnects

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to your network device (switch, router, modem or NIC) and the other plug to the target device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a secure mechanical and electrical connection. Route the cable without sharp bends; maintain the cable bend radius recommended by installation practice to avoid degrading performance. For best results in high-density or high-EMI areas, keep this shielded cable separated from unshielded power cabling and secure shields to grounded metal panels when used with shielded network equipment.

Usage recommendations

Use this Cat.6A S/FTP cable for short to medium patch runs where 10 Gigabit performance and enhanced EMI protection are required. When installing multiple shielded cables, ensure proper grounding of cable shields at patch panels or device chassis to maximise interference suppression. Replace cables showing visible damage to the jacket or connectors to maintain link quality.
