Ethernet patch cable No name CAT-626-1500.L Cat6a SF/UTP 15 m light grey

The Ethernet patch cable No name CAT-626-1500.L Cat6a SF/UTP 15 m light grey is a shielded network cable engineered for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and high-speed LAN environments. Its Cat6a specification supports higher bandwidth and reduced crosstalk compared with lower categories. The SF/UTP construction combines an overall foil shield with unshielded twisted pairs, providing enhanced protection from external electromagnetic interference while maintaining flexibility for routing in racks and conduits. The 15 m length and light grey jacket make this cable suitable for common installations between switches, routers, patch panels and network endpoints in data centers and office networks.

Advantages

The shielded foil-over-pairs design improves resistance to electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference, which helps maintain signal integrity over longer runs. Cat6a performance enables reliable 10 Gigabit data transmission and higher bandwidth headroom for modern network demands. The cable's flexible jacket and standardized connectors facilitate straightforward termination and integration into structured cabling systems. Its neutral light grey color supports discreet routing along walls and ceilings without strong visual contrast.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links within data centers and server rooms
• Office LAN connections between switches, routers and patch panels
• Structured cabling backbones and horizontal cabling runs up to 15 m
• Connections for network devices requiring reduced EMI exposure

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a supporting 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Shielding: SF/UTP (overall foil shield with unshielded twisted pairs)
• Length: 15 meters
• Color: light grey outer jacket
• Conductor type: twisted pair copper conductors (AWG typical for Cat6a)
• Typical use: horizontal and patch cabling for LAN and data center environments

How to use

Connect one end of the patch cable to the RJ45 port of the network device (switch, router or NIC) and the other end to the corresponding patch panel or network appliance. Ensure connectors are fully seated to establish reliable electrical contact. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and proximity to strong electromagnetic sources; secure with cable management accessories as needed. For optimal performance, maintain recommended installation practices for Cat6a cabling, such as limiting untwisting at terminations and avoiding kinking.

Usage recommendations

For best results in high-density or high-EMI environments, pair the SF/UTP patch cable with compatible shielded or properly grounded infrastructure components and follow local grounding practices. Verify that connected devices and patch panels support Cat6a performance to achieve full 10 Gigabit throughput.
