Patch cable S/FTP CAT6 copper LSZH, 5 m, black

Shielded S/FTP CAT6 patch cable with copper conductors and an LSZH (low smoke zero halogen) jacket, 5 meters long in black, designed for reliable Gigabit Ethernet connections. The cable provides improved signal integrity and reduced electromagnetic interference through pair-level foil shielding with an overall braid, while the copper conductors ensure consistent transmission characteristics for typical office, data center and home network environments.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction minimizes crosstalk and external interference, supporting stable high-speed data transfer and lower error rates. The LSZH outer jacket reduces toxic fumes and corrosive gases in case of fire, making this cable suitable for installations in enclosed or public spaces. A 5 m length balances flexibility and reach for patching between panels, switches and workstations while the black sheath provides a neutral, unobtrusive appearance for visible runs.

Suitable for

• Gigabit Ethernet connections between switches, routers and patch panels
• Workstation and office network patching
• Data center rack patching and short horizontal links
• Home network wiring for routers, smart devices and media streaming

Key specifications

• Cable category: CAT6 (S/FTP) for Gigabit Ethernet performance
• Conductor material: copper
• Shielding: pair-level foil with overall braid (S/FTP)
• Jacket material: LSZH (low smoke zero halogen)
• Length: 5 meters
• Color: black
• Connector type: RJ45 on both ends (shielded)

How to use

Insert each RJ45 connector into the corresponding port on network switches, patch panels, routers or computers until a click confirms a secure fit. Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid tight loops; maintain minimum bend radius recommended for Cat6 cables to preserve signal integrity. For installations in racks or conduits, organize cables to prevent undue mechanical stress on connectors and shielding. Use labeled patch points if multiple cables are present to simplify maintenance and troubleshooting.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, keep cable runs within recommended length limits for Ethernet segments and avoid running parallel to power cables for long distances. Verify shield continuity through properly grounded equipment and shielded ports when installing S/FTP cables to benefit from full EMI protection.
