S-Conn Patch Cable Cat.6A with Cat.7 Bulk Cable, S/FTP Double Shielded, Halogen-Free, Black, 1.0 m

S-Conn Patch Cable Cat.6A with Cat.7 Bulk Cable, S/FTP Double Shielded, Halogen-Free, Black, 1.0 m is a 1.0 m network patch cable built on Cat.7-class bulk conductors and terminated to meet Cat.6A patching requirements. It combines individually foil-shielded pairs with an overall braided screen (S/FTP) to reduce electromagnetic interference and provide improved alien crosstalk performance. The halogen-free outer jacket reduces hazardous gas emissions in the event of fire, making the cable suitable for installation in sensitive or densely wired environments.

Advantages

The cable provides double shielding with foil around each pair and an overall braid, improving signal integrity in environments with multiple adjacent cables or electronic equipment. Using Cat.7 bulk wire construction while meeting Cat.6A patch requirements yields higher mechanical and electrical stability for high-speed Ethernet up to 10 Gbps over short to medium distances. A halogen-free jacket and a compact, flexible 1.0 m length simplify routing within racks and patch panels while meeting safety considerations in enclosed spaces.

Suitable for

• LAN patching between wall outlets and switches
• Switch-to-switch or switch-to-server connections in racks
• Data center top-of-rack patching where alien crosstalk resistance is needed
• Environments requiring halogen-free cabling for safety compliance

When it may not be suitable

This 1.0 m fixed-length patch cable is not intended for permanent in-wall installation or long-distance backbone links; it is designed for patching inside cabinets and between nearby equipment. If you require certified Cat.7 termination or higher shield class for specialized applications, check that the entire channel (connectors, patch panels and bulk cabling) meets the desired system-level specification.

Key specifications

• Category performance: designed for Cat.6A patching with Cat.7 bulk conductor construction
• Shielding: S/FTP — foil around each pair plus overall braided screen
• Jacket material: halogen-free compound
• Color: black
• Length: 1.0 m
• Application: Ethernet networking up to 10 Gbps (channel dependent)

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the switch, patch panel or outlet and the other end into the corresponding device port. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and heavy compression; maintain the specified minimum bend radius indicated by standard practice for Cat.6A/Cat.7 class cables. In rack installations, use horizontal managers or Velcro ties to keep patch cords organized and to avoid strain on connectors. For best performance, ensure the rest of the channel (patch panels, keystones, and permanent link) is installed and tested according to relevant cabling standards.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm required cable length and avoid relying on a single short patch cord for long distances
• Verify that your channel components support the target performance (Cat.6A/10 Gbps)
• Check whether a different color or different connector boot style is needed for identification or space constraints

Usage recommendations

For reliable 10 Gbps performance, use this S/FTP patch cable as part of a properly installed and tested Cat.6A channel, keep patch cord bundles tidy to minimise alien crosstalk, and replace any damaged cords to maintain shielding integrity.
