Networking cable S/CONN 75715-S RJ-45 Cat6a 5 m Black

The S/CONN 75715-S RJ-45 Cat6a networking cable, 5 m in length, is built to support high-performance wired Ethernet connections. It follows Cat6a specifications for increased bandwidth and uses S/FTP shielding to limit electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. Both ends terminate in gold-plated RJ-45 connectors for reliable contact and consistent signal transfer, and the black outer jacket provides a discreet, professional appearance in home or office installations.

Advantages

This Cat6a cable delivers higher data rates and improved immunity to interference compared with lower-category cables. The S/FTP shielding combines an overall foil shield with individually shielded twisted pairs to reduce noise from nearby electrical sources and adjacent cables. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors increase corrosion resistance and ensure stable physical and electrical contact. The 5 m length offers flexible placement options without excessive slack, and the durable outer sheath protects the internal conductors from wear and handling.

Suitable for

• Wired Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in home, office, or data closet environments
• Connecting switches, routers, desktop PCs, NAS devices, and access points
• Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is required

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding type: S/FTP (overall foil + individually shielded twisted pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Connector plating: gold-plated contacts
• Cable length: 5 m
• Outer colour: black

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of the source device (for example a router or switch) and the other connector into the target device (for example a PC or NAS). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends, tight kinks, and proximity to large power cables to preserve signal integrity. For permanent installations, use cable management clips or channels to keep the cable supported and organised.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable parallel and close to mains power lines or fluorescent lighting fixtures. Use this Cat6a S/FTP cable where higher bandwidth and improved shielding are necessary; verify that connected equipment supports the desired Ethernet speeds (Gigabit or 10 Gigabit) and use proper cable routing and strain relief to extend service life.
