Ethernet Patch Cable NEWLINK ART-125K Cat6A 25m, Copper RJ45, 10Gbps, up to 600MHz, LSZH jacket

NEWLINK ART-125K Cat6A shielded Ethernet patch cable, 25 meters long, provides copper-conductor connectivity with RJ45 terminations designed to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet and frequency performance up to 600 MHz. The cable features a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) outer jacket for reduced toxic and corrosive emissions in case of fire, making it appropriate for installations that require safer cable materials. This cable is intended for high-speed LAN links, server room patching and backbone connections where shielded performance and an LSZH jacket are specified.

Advantages

The shielded Cat6A construction and copper conductors deliver stable 10 Gbps throughput and improved noise immunity in environments with potential electromagnetic interference. The 25 m length covers common patching distances without intermediate couplers and the rated performance to 600 MHz supports applications requiring higher bandwidth headroom. The LSZH jacket reduces smoke and halogen emissions for safer deployment in public and enclosed spaces where fire safety materials are required.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in data centers and server rooms
• Backbone and horizontal structured cabling runs up to 25 m
• Office networks and professional LAN patching
• Environments requiring low smoke zero halogen materials (public buildings, control rooms)

When it may not be suitable

This 25 m shielded Cat6A cable is not intended for direct burial, outdoor long-run installations or permanent in-wall conduit runs that require specific outdoor or plenum-rated jackets. For runs exceeding 25 meters a different cable length or intermediate patching strategy will be necessary. If unshielded twisted pair cabling is preferred for simpler installations or lower cost, an unshielded Cat5e/Cat6 alternative would be more suitable.

How to use

Install the NEWLINK Cat6A shielded patch cable by connecting the RJ45 plug into compatible shielded ports on switches, routers or patch panels. Ensure that the connected equipment supports 10 Gbps if full throughput is required. When using shielded cabling, maintain proper grounding and bonded shield terminations at patch panels or outlets to preserve EMI protection. Avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force during installation to preserve cable integrity and performance.

What to consider before purchase

• Required run length and whether 25 m is appropriate for your installation
• Need for shielding and proper equipment/termination to benefit from shielded cable
• LSZH jacket requirement for fire safety in the installation environment
• Compatibility of connected devices with 10 Gigabit Ethernet

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use shielded RJ45 ports and ensure consistent grounding across the network rack or patch panel. Keep the cable away from high-voltage power lines and maintain bend radius per manufacturer guidelines; test final links with a cable tester certified for Cat6A/10G to verify throughput and pair integrity.
