Ethernet cable MONTIS Cat6A S/FTP 50 m — Montis MT116-50

The MONTIS Cat6A S/FTP Ethernet cable, 50 m length, is a shielded network cable designed for high-speed Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet installations. Its S/FTP construction (overall braid with individually shielded pairs) reduces crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference, delivering stable high-frequency performance for structured cabling in data centers, offices and home networks. The 50 m reel provides a continuous run suitable for medium-length links while maintaining transmission integrity required by Cat6A standards.

Advantages

The shielded S/FTP design improves signal integrity by combining an overall braided shield with foil shielding on each twisted pair, lowering alien crosstalk and susceptibility to nearby electrical noise. The cable supports higher bandwidth and reduced attenuation over longer runs compared with lower-category cables, enabling reliable operation for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and high-bandwidth applications. Its flexible jacket and consistent pair geometry aid installation in conduit and cable trays while preserving performance.

Suitable for

• Structured cabling in offices and commercial buildings
• Data center horizontal and equipment interconnects
• High-speed home networks and multimedia streaming
• Environments with elevated electromagnetic interference
• Backbone and riser runs up to medium distances

• Length: 50 meters
• Conductor type: twisted pair copper conductors
• Data rates supported: up to 10 Gbps over specified distances
• Frequency range: suitable for frequencies specified by Cat6A performance (up to 500 MHz)
• Typical jacket: flexible outer sheath suitable for installations in conduit and trays

How to use

Measure and plan the cable route avoiding sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference where possible. Cut the required length from the reel and terminate each end with compatible RJ45 connectors or keystone jacks designed for shielded Cat6A cable; ensure correct grounding of the cable shield through proper connector or outlet that supports shield termination. Maintain recommended bend radius and separate the cable from power lines to preserve performance and comply with installation standards.

Usage recommendations

For optimal 10 Gigabit performance, use certified Cat6A terminations and shielding-aware patch panels or connectors, and limit untwisting of pairs at terminations to the minimum. Ground the shield at one point per run according to site grounding practices to prevent ground loops. Test each installed link with appropriate cable certification tools to verify bandwidth, NEXT and return loss meet Cat6A requirements.
