ROLINE S/FTP Cat.6 Patch Cord, RJ-45, 15 m, Blue

The ROLINE S/FTP Cat.6 patch cord is a high-performance network cable engineered for reliable data transmission in Class E environments. With a length of 15 meters, this cable provides a stable connection for professional and home office network setups. It features advanced S/FTP (PiMF) shielding, which effectively minimizes electromagnetic interference and ensures signal integrity even in demanding conditions. The cable is constructed with 4-pair stranded copper wire and is fully compatible with Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications, making it a versatile choice for modern networking hardware.

Advantages

This patch cord offers exceptional durability and signal quality thanks to its high-quality connectors with gold-plated contacts. The inclusion of moulded kink protection prevents damage to the cable ends, extending the lifespan of the connection. Its flexible design allows for easy installation in tight spaces or narrow bending radii without compromising performance. By adhering to the EIA/TIA 568 standard with a 1:1 contact configuration, it ensures seamless compatibility with a wide range of network devices.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, routers, and switches in home or office networks
• Powering devices via Power over Ethernet (PoE)
• Environments requiring high protection against electromagnetic interference
• Structured cabling systems where reliable Class E performance is needed

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, for extremely long-distance runs exceeding the standard channel specifications, specialized fiber optic or infrastructure cabling solutions might be required instead of standard copper patch cords.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 15 m
• Cable standard: Cat.6 (Class E)
• Shielding: S/FTP (PiMF)
• Connector type: RJ-45 (Male to Male)
• Contact plating: Gold
• Wire construction: 4-pair stranded copper, 26 AWG
• PoE support: Yes
• Color: Blue

To use the ROLINE S/FTP Cat.6 patch cord, simply insert the RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network port on your device until you hear a click. Ensure that the cable is not pulled tight or bent at an angle sharper than its design allows to maintain optimal signal transmission. The cable is plug-and-play, requiring no additional configuration for standard networking tasks.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required cable length to ensure 15 meters is sufficient for your setup
• Check if your network devices support Cat.6 standards for optimal speed
• Confirm that the blue color fits your cable management or color-coding scheme
• Ensure the environment is suitable for an indoor-rated shielded cable

For a fully optimized structured cabling system, it is recommended to use this patch cord in conjunction with other ROLINE Cat.6 shielded components, such as wall jacks and patch panels, to maintain Class E performance across the entire network channel.
