ROLINE S/FTP Cat.6 Patch Cord, RJ-45, PoE, 2 m, Orange

The ROLINE S/FTP Cat.6 patch cord is a high-performance network cable engineered for reliable data transmission in Class E environments. This 2-meter cable features advanced S/FTP shielding, which effectively minimizes electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, ensuring a stable and secure connection for your networking equipment. Designed to support Power over Ethernet (PoE), this cable is capable of delivering both data and power to compatible devices, making it a versatile solution for modern office and home network infrastructures.

Advantages

This patch cord stands out due to its robust construction and high-quality materials. The use of bare copper wire with 26 AWG ensures excellent conductivity and signal integrity. The cable is designed with moulded kink protection, which significantly increases its durability and prevents damage at the connector points during frequent handling. Furthermore, the cable is highly flexible, allowing for easy installation in tight spaces or narrow cable trays without compromising performance. The RJ-45 connectors are equipped with gold-plated contacts to provide superior corrosion resistance and optimal electrical connectivity over the long term.
