Networking cable Secomp 21.05.0527 Cat6a S/FTP (S‑STP) Orange 2 m RJ‑45–RJ‑45

Secomp 21.05.0527 is a 2 m Cat6a patch cable with S/FTP (S‑STP) shielding and RJ‑45 connectors on both ends. Designed for high‑speed Ethernet links, this orange cable provides Cat6a performance for structured cabling and Ethernet networks. The combination of foil and braided shielding reduces external electromagnetic interference, helping to maintain signal integrity over short runs in data centers, server rooms and office LANs.

Advantages

The S/FTP (S‑STP) construction combines an overall braid with individual pair foil shielding to minimise crosstalk and external noise. With RJ‑45 connectors at each end and a 2 m length, the cable is ready for plug‑and‑play deployment in patch panels, switches and network devices. The Cat6a specification supports higher bandwidth and improved performance compared with lower category cables, making it suitable for Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet in appropriate installations.

Suitable for

• Patch connections between switches and patch panels in data centers
• Office LAN cabling and workstation connections
• Structured cabling where reduced EMI and improved pair isolation are required
• Short to medium length links requiring Cat6a performance

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with individually foil‑shielded pairs)
• Connectors: RJ‑45 to RJ‑45, straight plugs
• Length: 2 m
• Color: Orange
• Supported use: Gigabit Ethernet, 10 Gigabit Ethernet (where environmental and installation conditions permit)

How to use

Connect one RJ‑45 plug to the network device (switch, router or network interface) and the other RJ‑45 plug to the patch panel or endpoint device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a reliable connection. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and avoid running parallel and close to power cabling when possible to reduce potential interference. For best performance, use within appropriate channel lengths and follow installation practices for Cat6a cabling.

Usage recommendations

For consistent Cat6a performance, use this cable for short patch runs up to 2 m between equipment in racks and cabinets. Avoid kinking the cable and maintain bend radii recommended for twisted‑pair cables. When installing in high‑EMI environments, prefer shielded cable terminations and maintain proper grounding of panel and chassis components to maximise noise rejection.
