Outdoor Patch Cable slim wirewin KAT6A S/FTP Anti-UV PUR Jacket black RJ45

The slim wirewin KAT6A S/FTP outdoor patch cable with Anti-UV PUR jacket is a 10 m network cable designed for outdoor and exposed installations where Category 6A performance and enhanced mechanical and environmental protection are required. The cable features S/FTP shielding to reduce crosstalk and external interference and is terminated with RJ45 straight male connectors on both ends. The black PUR jacket provides increased resistance to sunlight (UV), moisture and abrasion compared with common PVC jackets, making it suitable for roofline, facade or sheltered external runs and for temporary outdoor setups.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction combines an overall braided shield with individually shielded pairs to maintain high signal integrity at 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds and reduce electromagnetic interference from nearby electrical equipment. The Anti-UV PUR jacket increases durability against sunlight exposure and mechanical wear while remaining flexible for routing through conduits and along building exteriors. Standard RJ45 terminations allow immediate plug-and-play use with network switches, routers and patch panels that support Category 6A cabling.

Suitable for

• Outdoor network links on terraces, façades and rooflines where the cable is exposed to sunlight and weather.
• Temporary external installations for events, surveillance camera runs and temporary offices.
• High-speed Ethernet connections up to Category 6A (10 Gbps) in sheltered or semi-exposed outdoor locations.

When it may not be suitable

This cable is intended for outdoor and semi-exposed use but is not a fully armored conduit cable for direct burial; it should not be installed underground without additional protective conduit. It is not a substitute for fiber-optic cabling when very long runs, immunity to electromagnetic interference, or the highest bandwidth over long distance are required.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 10 m
• Connector type: RJ45 straight male – both ends
• Cabling standard: Category 6A (Cat6A) with S/FTP shielding (overall braid + individually shielded pairs)
• Jacket material: PUR (Polyurethane) with anti-UV properties
• Colour: Black

How to use

Route the cable along the planned run avoiding sharp bends and tight corners; maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for Cat6A cables to preserve performance. Use appropriate outdoor cable clips, UV-resistant ties or conduit to secure the cable and to prevent mechanical stress on the RJ45 connectors. Plug the RJ45 connectors into compatible network devices and test the link with a network tester or switch port to verify Category 6A performance and correct pairing.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the required run length and add slack for routing and connector access.
• Decide if additional protection (conduit or tray) is needed for direct exposure or risk of mechanical damage.
• Verify that connected equipment supports Category 6A speeds if 10 Gbps performance is required.

Usage recommendations

For longest service life outdoors, fasten the cable with UV-resistant mounting accessories, avoid prolonged immersion in water, and protect connector ends from dirt and moisture with weatherproof boots or enclosures when used in exposed locations.
