ROLINE Cat.6 S/FTP Patch Cord, RJ-45, PoE, 0.5 m, White

The ROLINE Cat.6 S/FTP patch cord is a high-performance network cable engineered for reliable data transmission in Class E environments. Measuring 0.5 meters in length, this white cable features advanced S/FTP shielding to effectively minimize electromagnetic interference, ensuring stable and high-speed connectivity for your network devices. With its durable construction and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors, it provides a secure and long-lasting connection for professional and home office setups.

Advantages

This patch cord offers superior signal integrity thanks to its S/FTP shielding, which protects data against external interference. The inclusion of gold-plated contacts on the RJ-45 connectors ensures optimal conductivity and resistance to corrosion over time. Designed with a flexible 4-pair stranded copper wire construction and moulded kink protection, the cable is highly durable and capable of handling tight bends without compromising performance. Furthermore, its support for Power over Ethernet (PoE) makes it a versatile solution for powering network devices directly through the data cable.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers to network switches or routers
• Powering IP cameras or VoIP phones via PoE
• High-speed data transmission in home and office networks
• Patching connections in server racks or small network cabinets
