ROLINE Cat.6 S/FTP Patch Cord, RJ-45, PoE, 15 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 15 meters in length, this cable features double shielding to effectively minimize electromagnetic interference and ensure signal integrity. It is designed to support Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications, making it a versatile choice for powering network devices directly through the data connection. With its durable construction and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors, this cable provides a stable and secure link for demanding high-speed internet setups.

Advantages

This patch cord offers superior signal protection through its S/FTP (PiMF) shielding, which significantly reduces crosstalk and external interference. The inclusion of gold-plated contacts on the RJ-45 connectors ensures optimal conductivity and long-term resistance to corrosion. Its flexible design, combined with moulded kink protection, allows for easy installation in tight spaces without compromising the internal wire structure. Furthermore, the cable is fully compatible with Power over Ethernet standards, allowing for the efficient deployment of IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers to network switches or routers
• Powering PoE-enabled devices such as IP cameras and access points
• Professional office network installations
• High-speed home network setups

When it may not be suitable

This 15-meter cable is specifically designed for standard indoor networking environments and may not be suitable for outdoor use where exposure to moisture, UV radiation, or extreme temperature fluctuations is expected. Additionally, for extremely long-distance runs exceeding standard Ethernet specifications, alternative infrastructure solutions may be required.

Key specifications

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

How to use

To use the ROLINE patch cord, simply insert the RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of your network device, such as a router, switch, or computer, until you hear a distinct click. Ensure that the cable is routed away from potential sources of heavy electrical interference and avoid sharp bends that could damage the internal copper wiring. If using the cable for PoE, verify that your power-sourcing equipment is compatible with the required power levels.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the 15-meter length is sufficient for your specific installation path
• Verify that your network hardware supports Cat.6 standards for optimal performance
• Check if your devices require PoE functionality

Usage recommendations

For the best performance, avoid coiling the excess cable tightly, as this can create heat and affect signal quality. Always ensure the connectors are fully seated in the ports to maintain a stable connection.
