Network patch cable SACON 442628,700 — Cat6a S/FTP (S‑STP), RJ‑45 to RJ‑45, 7 m, black

SACON 442628,700 is a 7 m Cat6a network patch cable with S/FTP (S‑STP) shielding and RJ‑45 connectors on both ends. Engineered for structured cabling and point‑to‑point connections, this cable supports high‑speed Ethernet links up to 10 Gbps and provides improved protection against electromagnetic interference and crosstalk through foil shielding around each pair and an overall braid. The sturdy black jacket and molded RJ‑45 plugs ensure reliable physical connection in home, office and data‑center environments.

Advantages

The S/FTP (S‑STP) construction delivers enhanced noise immunity and reduced alien crosstalk compared with unshielded alternatives, making it suitable for dense cabling runs and electrically noisy environments. Cat6a performance maintains bandwidth for 10 Gigabit Ethernet at typical distances used in local networks. Molded RJ‑45 connectors provide strain relief and a consistent contact interface for frequent plugging and unplugging. The 7 m length offers flexibility for desk‑to‑patch‑panel or switch‑to‑workstation connections without excess slack.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and patch panels in wired LANs
• Linking desktops, workstations and servers to network ports
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet backbones and high‑throughput connections
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference where shielding is beneficial

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a (augmented Category 6)
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with individually foil‑shielded pairs)
• Connector type: RJ‑45 to RJ‑45, male on both ends
• Length: 7 m
• Supported data rates: up to 10 Gbps (10 Gigabit Ethernet), backward compatible with Gigabit and Fast Ethernet
• Colour: black
• Typical use: structured cabling, patching, direct device interconnection

How to use

Insert each RJ‑45 plug into the corresponding network port until the latch clicks to establish a secure connection. For optimal performance, avoid sharply bending the cable near the connectors and maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for Cat6a cables. Route the cable away from high‑power electrical sources where possible, and secure it with cable ties or management panels to prevent strain on the connectors. When replacing or extending links, verify link speed and duplex settings on connected devices to ensure 10 Gbps operation if supported.

Usage recommendations

Install in shielded or properly grounded infrastructure to gain full EMI protection offered by S/FTP construction. For permanent installations in ceilings or conduits, follow local cabling standards and use appropriate mounting and fire‑safety practices. Test links after installation with a certified cable tester when high performance or compliance verification is required.
