S-Conn Patch Cable Cat.6A with Cat.7 Raw Cable S/FTP Double Shielded Halogen-Free Red 0.25 m

S-Conn Patch Cable Cat.6A with Cat.7 Raw Cable S/FTP Double Shielded Halogen-Free Red 0.25 m is a short, high-performance network patch lead designed for reliable, high-speed Ethernet links. Assembled on Cat.7 raw cable with S/FTP construction (individual pair foil + overall braid), the cable supports 10GBASE-T and structured cabling needs in data centers, server rooms and LAN patch panels. The halogen-free red jacket identifies the cable visually while meeting safety and environmental requirements for installations.

Advantages

The S/FTP double shielding reduces crosstalk and electromagnetic interference, helping to maintain signal integrity for short runs and patching. Cat.6A performance assembled on Cat.7 raw conductor geometry provides headroom for 10 Gbps Ethernet over short distances. The halogen-free outer jacket lowers toxic gas emission risk in case of fire, and the compact 0.25 m length is convenient for tidy patching in dense racks and wall-mounted panels.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections in server rooms and data centers
• LAN patch panels and wall outlets where space is limited
• 10GBASE-T links over short distances
• Environments that require halogen-free cabling for safety compliance

When it may not be suitable

This 0.25 m patch cable is not intended for long-distance runs; it is designed for short links and patching only. For permanent horizontal cabling or links exceeding typical patch lengths, longer Cat.6A or Cat.7 cables rated for the required distance should be selected.

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.6A electrical performance (assembled on Cat.7 raw cable)
• Shielding: S/FTP (individual pair foil + overall braid) double shielded
• Length: 0.25 m
• Conductor: twisted pairs suitable for 10GBASE-T
• Jacket material: halogen-free
• Color: red
• Connectors: RJ45 compatible (standard patch cable termination)

How to use

Use the S-Conn 0.25 m patch cable to connect equipment within racks, link patch panels to switches, or make short device-to-switch connections. Insert the RJ45 plugs into the corresponding ports until they click to ensure a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; the short length is intended to minimize cable slack and improve rack organization.

What to consider before purchase

• Required link length — 0.25 m is suitable only for short patching
• Shielding needs — verify that S/FTP cabling is compatible with your installation grounding and earthing practices
• Performance class — Cat.6A assembled on Cat.7 raw cable supports 10 Gbps over short distances
• Color coding — red jacket may be used for network segmentation or identification

Usage recommendations

For best results, use this patch cable in patch panels and switch ports that support shielded connections and ensure proper grounding of the cable shield. Avoid kinking and keep bend radius within manufacturer guidelines; for permanent horizontal runs or longer distances choose appropriately rated cables.
