SecurityNET S/FTP Cat.6 Patch Cable, 1.5m, LSZH, Green

The SecurityNET S/FTP Cat.6 patch cable is a high-performance networking solution engineered for stable and secure data transmission. Measuring 1.5 meters in length, this cable features advanced S/FTP shielding, which provides superior protection against electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, ensuring consistent signal integrity in demanding network environments. The cable is encased in a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket, making it a safer choice for indoor installations where fire safety and minimal toxic emissions are critical requirements.

Advantages

This patch cable offers exceptional reliability by utilizing individual foil shielding for each pair of wires combined with an overall braided shield, effectively minimizing data loss and external interference. The Cat.6 standard supports high-speed data transfer rates suitable for modern gigabit networks. Furthermore, the LSZH jacket construction enhances safety by reducing smoke density and eliminating halogen gases in the event of fire, which is essential for compliance with building safety regulations in offices, data centers, and public buildings.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers to wall outlets or network switches
• Linking routers and modems to patch panels
• High-speed local area network (LAN) installations
• Environments requiring fire-retardant cabling standards

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not intended for outdoor use, as the LSZH jacket is not designed to withstand prolonged exposure to UV radiation, moisture, or extreme temperature fluctuations. Additionally, the 1.5-meter length may be insufficient for long-distance runs between rooms or across large office spaces.

Key specifications

• Cable Category: Cat.6
• Shielding Type: S/FTP (Screened Foiled Twisted Pair)
• Length: 1.5 meters
• Jacket Material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Color: Green

How to use

To use the cable, simply insert the RJ45 connector into the corresponding network port on your device, such as a computer, switch, or router, until you hear a distinct click. Ensure that the cable is not bent at sharp angles or pinched by furniture, as this can damage the internal conductors and degrade network performance. When disconnecting, press the locking tab on the connector to release it safely from the port.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required length to ensure the 1.5-meter cable reaches your equipment comfortably without excessive tension.
• Confirm that your network hardware supports Cat.6 standards for optimal performance.
• Check if your installation environment specifically requires LSZH-rated cables for fire safety compliance.

Usage recommendations

For the best performance, avoid running network cables parallel to power lines to prevent potential electromagnetic interference. Always maintain a gentle bend radius when routing the cable through cable management systems.
