Network Cable Renkforce RF-6609652 RJ45 CAT 6a 3.00m Orange

The Renkforce RF-6609652 RJ45 CAT 6a network cable is a 3.00 m orange S/FTP patch cable designed for reliable wired connections in home and office networks. Built to CAT 6a specifications, the cable supports high-speed data transmission and features enhanced shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference. The integrated Port-Finder function helps identify connected ports quickly during installation or maintenance, while the robust connectors and jacket provide mechanical durability for everyday use.

Advantages

The cable's CAT 6a performance class enables higher bandwidth and better crosstalk protection compared with earlier categories. S/FTP shielding minimizes external interference and preserves signal integrity in environments with multiple networked devices or nearby electrical equipment. The bright orange jacket improves visibility in cabling bundles and server rooms, and the Port-Finder function simplifies tracing and identification of endpoints without disconnecting equipment.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and patch panels in small office and home networks
• High-speed data transfer tasks such as backups, file serving and media streaming
• Environments with potential electrical interference or dense cabling
• Installations where cable identification and visual management are important

Key specifications

• Cable category: CAT 6a (augmented)
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid + individually shielded pairs)
• Length: 3.00 m
• Connector type: RJ45 plug to RJ45 plug, gold-plated contacts
• Jacket color: Orange
• Suitable for frequencies up to 500 MHz

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to the network device (switch, router, modem or network card) and the other plug to the destination device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. When routing the cable, avoid sharp bends and tight loops to maintain performance; keep the bend radius larger than the cable diameter and avoid running the cable in parallel with high-power electrical lines where possible. Use the Port-Finder function to assist identification: follow the manufacturer's instructions for actuator or tracing method if available on your network hardware.

Usage recommendations

For optimal results, use this CAT 6a S/FTP cable for links requiring sustained high throughput and low interference. Maintain neat cable management in cabinets and racks, label both ends when installing multiple runs, and avoid placing the cable next to mains power or fluorescent fixtures to reduce potential interference.
