Patch Cable S-Conn Cat.6A with Cat.7 Bare Cable S/FTP Double Shielded Halogen-Free Blue 0.5 m

S-Conn Patch Cable Cat.6A terminated on a Cat.7 bare cable provides a compact, double-shielded connection for high-speed Ethernet networks. The cable features S/FTP shielding (overall braid plus individually foiled pairs) and a halogen-free blue jacket. At 0.5 m length, it is suitable for short interconnects in LANs, telecom racks and datacenter patch panels where a reliable, low-interference link is required.

Advantages

The double-shielded S/FTP design reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, improving signal integrity for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and other high-speed protocols. The halogen-free outer jacket limits hazardous emissions in case of fire, meeting safety considerations for many commercial and infrastructure installations. The short 0.5 m length minimizes excess cable clutter in rack and patch environments while the Cat.6A termination on a Cat.7 conductor ensures a combination of robust mechanical and electrical performance.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between switches, patch panels and servers
• Data center cabinets and telecom racks requiring shielded links
• LAN installations where reduced interference is important
• High-speed Ethernet applications up to Cat.6A performance

When it may not be suitable

This 0.5 m patch cable is not intended for long-distance runs; use structured cabling or longer-rated cables for links that exceed typical rack-to-equipment distances. If your installation specifically requires certified Cat.7 patch cords end-to-end or different colors/lengths, a different product matching those exact criteria would be more suitable.

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.6A terminated on Cat.7 conductor
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid + individually foiled pairs)
• Jacket: Halogen-free, blue
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connector type: Standard RJ45 modular terminations (shielded)
• Intended use: High-speed Ethernet, LAN, datacenter patching

How to use

Connect the shielded RJ45 plug to the appropriate shielded port on your switch, patch panel or device. Ensure the mating port provides a proper chassis ground for optimum shielding effectiveness. Route the 0.5 m cable to avoid tight bends; keep bend radius consistent with Ethernet cable practices to preserve performance. For rack installations, use short cable management paths to keep the patch area tidy and to minimize mechanical strain on the connectors.

What to consider before purchase

• Required length — 0.5 m is intended for short patching only
• Shielding needs — S/FTP is effective in high-EMI environments
• Compatibility — ensure devices accept shielded RJ45 terminations
• Color preference — the jacket is blue

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use this S-Conn Cat.6A patch cable in shielded installations with proper grounding of patch panels and switches. Avoid excessive bending and do not exceed the intended link length for critical high-speed applications.
