Ethernet Patch Cable Cat6A NEWLINK ART-140 — 40m, Copper RJ45, 10Gbps, up to 600MHz, LSZH

Shielded Ethernet patch cable NEWLINK ART-140, Cat6A specification, 40 meters long with copper RJ45 connectors designed to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet and frequencies up to 600 MHz. The cable features a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) outer jacket that reduces smoke and toxic emissions in case of fire. It is built for shielded network environments and is suitable for backbone and horizontal cabling in data centers, server rooms and office networks where high-speed, low-interference connections are required.

Advantages

The NEWLINK Cat6A shielded cable provides reliable 10Gbps throughput and extended bandwidth up to 600 MHz, which helps maintain signal integrity over longer runs. Its copper RJ45 terminations ensure consistent electrical contact and compatibility with standard Ethernet ports. The LSZH jacket reduces hazardous smoke and halogen emissions, improving safety in enclosed spaces. Shielding minimizes electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, which is beneficial in environments with dense cabling or nearby electrical equipment.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in data centers and server rooms
• High-speed backbone and horizontal cabling for office networks
• Shielded installations near heavy electrical equipment or RF sources
• Environments where low smoke and halogen-free materials are required

When it may not be suitable

This shielded Cat6A cable is not necessary for simple home networking or low-bandwidth applications where Cat5e or unshielded Cat6 would suffice; using Cat6A overkill can add cost and reduced flexibility. It may also be unsuitable in installations that require extremely flexible or ultra-thin patch cords designed for tight patch panels or frequent re-routing, as full-sized shielded cables can be stiffer than slim patch options.

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6A, shielded
• Length: 40 m
• Conductor material: copper
• Connector type: RJ45, copper contacts
• Maximum supported data rate: 10 Gbps
• Frequency/bandwidth: up to 600 MHz
• Jacket material: Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH)
• Intended use: backbone and horizontal network cabling

How to use

Measure and plan the cable route before installation to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension. Terminate the RJ45 connectors into compatible Ethernet ports on switches, patch panels or network devices, ensuring the connectors are fully seated. For shielded installations, connect the cable shield to the network equipment or patch panel grounding point as part of a proper grounding and bonding practice. Avoid kinking the cable and maintain bend radius recommendations to preserve performance over the 40 m run.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the need for 10Gbps performance and Cat6A bandwidth up to 600 MHz for your application
• Confirm that shielded cabling and LSZH jacket meet your site safety and EMC requirements
• Ensure the 40 m length fits your planned routing without excessive slack or strain
• Check device compatibility for RJ45 copper terminations and grounding provisions

Usage recommendations

For best results, route the cable away from high-voltage power lines and maintain recommended separation from sources of electromagnetic interference. When installing in structured cabling systems, implement proper grounding for shielded connectors and test each run with suitable cable certification or verification tools to confirm 10Gbps performance across the full 40 m length.
