Networking Cable Wirewin PKW-PIMF-KAT6A 3.0 WS 3m Cat6a S/FTP

The Wirewin PKW-PIMF-KAT6A 3.0 WS is a 3-metre Cat6a patch cable designed for stable high-speed network connections. Constructed with S/FTP shielding and premium copper conductors, this 3 m cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance and is measured to Category 6A standards. The cable uses 1:1 TIA/EIA 568B pinning and comes with a low-smoke, zero-halogen (LSZH) jacket for safer deployment in enclosed spaces. Connectors are protected by a special boot that eases insertion and shields the plug from mechanical stress.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding provides both overall braid protection and individual pair foil shielding to reduce crosstalk and external interference, improving signal integrity in dense or noisy environments. High-quality AWG26/7 copper conductors and 100% factory testing ensure consistent electrical performance and reliable 10 Gbps throughput. The LSZH jacket lowers the release of toxic gases in case of fire and meets safety requirements for indoor installations. The molded boot design simplifies connector handling and helps prevent accidental damage during installation.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections in data centres and server rooms
• Office and commercial network cabling where interference immunity is required
• Patch panels, switches and network equipment requiring Cat6a-rated links
• Short horizontal runs and workstation connections up to 3 metres

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a, measured to Category 6A performance
• Length: 3.0 metres
• Shielding: S/FTP – overall braid plus foil shielded pairs
• Conductor: copper, AWG26/7 stranded
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45, TIA/EIA 568B wiring (1:1)
• Data rate support: up to 10 Gbps
• Jacket material: LSZH (low-smoke, zero-halogen)
• Testing: 100% factory tested for performance
• Connector boot: molded special boot for protection and easy push

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device or switch and the other end to the patch panel, router or workstation NIC. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click to secure the latch. Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid running parallel to heavy power lines to minimize interference; the S/FTP construction provides improved immunity but good routing practice further preserves signal quality. For equipment rack installations, use proper cable management to prevent strain on the connectors.

Usage recommendations

Use this Cat6a S/FTP patch cable for short patch runs and direct device connections up to 3 metres. Keep bend radius above manufacturer recommendations, avoid excessive pulling force on the connector, and store or install in dry, indoor environments to maintain LSZH jacket integrity. For longer permanent links, consider structured cabling with appropriate fixed cabling components.
