## Summary description

MetzConnect Cat.6A patch cable, 0.5 m length, conforming to Cat6a standard for up to 10 Gbit/s data transfer. S/FTP (S‑STP) shielding provides foil‑screened pairs with an overall braid for reduced interference. Fitted with RJ‑45 connectors with gold‑plated contacts, suitable for high‑speed Ethernet, switches, routers and patch panels in LAN installations.

## Long description

The MetzConnect Cat.6A patch cable, 0.5 m in length, is designed for high‑speed Ethernet applications and complies with Cat6a specifications for data rates up to 10 Gbit/s. The cable uses S/FTP (S‑STP) construction with foil screening around each pair and an overall braided shield to reduce electromagnetic interference. Both ends are fitted with RJ‑45 connectors with gold‑plated contacts and a snagless boot with integrated lever protection, making the cable suitable for use with switches, routers and patch panels in LAN environments. The LSHF (LSOH) halogen‑free outer sheath and AWG 26/7 conductor construction support durable and safe installations.
Advantages
The fully shielded S/FTP structure delivers improved immunity to crosstalk and external noise compared with unshielded alternatives, which helps maintain signal integrity for 10 GBit Ethernet and other high‑bandwidth applications. Gold‑plated RJ‑45 contacts ensure reliable electrical contact and corrosion resistance. The short 0.5 m length is suitable for tidy patching in rack or cabinet environments where minimal slack and secure connector protection are required.
Suitable for
 Short patch connections between switches, routers and patch panels in data racks
 Shielded Class EA cabling systems and mixed shielded/unshielded installations
 10 GBit Ethernet links and high‑speed LAN segments
 Power over Ethernet applications including PoE, PoE+ and UPoE
 AV and HDBaseT signal transmission where reduced interference is required

How to use
Insert each RJ‑45 connector into the corresponding port on your network devices until the latch clicks into place. Use this 0.5 m patch cable for short connections inside racks or between adjacent devices to minimize cable clutter. Ensure that the cable shielding is properly bonded to the system ground where required by your installation practice and local cabling standards. Avoid tight bends and mechanical strain on the connectors to preserve performance and prolong service life.
Usage recommendations
For optimum performance in shielded cabling environments, ensure continuity of the overall braid to equipment chassis or grounding points. Use the cable for short patching runs in cabinets and racks and avoid running it alongside strong electromagnetic sources if additional separation is possible. Note that cable color may vary slightly between production lots.
