ROLINE Cat.6 S/FTP Patch Cord, RJ-45, PoE, 7 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 7 meters in length, this cable features double shielding, known as S/FTP (PiMF), which effectively minimizes electromagnetic interference and ensures signal integrity. It is equipped with high-quality RJ-45 connectors featuring gold-plated contacts to provide a stable and corrosion-resistant connection for your networking hardware.

Advantages

This patch cable offers superior protection against external interference thanks to its comprehensive shielding design, which includes both individual pair shielding and an overall braid. The inclusion of moulded kink protection enhances the durability of the cable, preventing damage at the connector points during installation or movement. Its flexible construction allows for easy routing in tight spaces, while the support for Power over Ethernet (PoE) makes it a versatile choice for powering devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points directly through the network cable.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers to network switches or routers
• Powering PoE-enabled devices like IP cameras and access points
• Professional office network installations
• Home office setups requiring stable high-speed connectivity

This cable may not be suitable for outdoor installations where it would be exposed to direct sunlight, moisture, or extreme temperature fluctuations, as it is designed for indoor use. Additionally, if you require a cable length significantly longer than 7 meters, you may experience signal degradation, and a different cabling solution or active hardware might be necessary.

To use this patch cord, simply insert the RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of your networking device until you hear a click, ensuring a secure connection. The cable is designed for plug-and-play operation, requiring no additional configuration. Ensure that the cable is not stretched tightly between devices to maintain its longevity and performance.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required cable length to ensure 7 meters is sufficient for your setup
• Check if your networking equipment supports the Cat.6 standard for optimal performance
• Confirm that your devices are compatible with the RJ-45 interface
• Ensure the white color matches your installation environment requirements

For the best performance, avoid bending the cable at sharp angles and keep it away from high-voltage power lines to prevent potential electromagnetic interference.
