Networking cable Tecline 71805S Black 5 m Cat6a S/FTP

The Tecline 71805S Black 5 m Cat6a S/FTP networking cable is a shielded Ethernet cable designed for high-speed wired connections in home and office networks. With Cat6a specification and S/FTP shielding, this 5-meter black cable supports reliable data transmission and reduced electromagnetic interference. Both ends are terminated with standard RJ-45 connectors for compatibility with routers, switches, network interface cards and other Ethernet-enabled devices.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding combines an overall foil shield with individually braided shields for each twisted pair, improving protection against crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference. Cat6a performance supports higher data rates and better signal integrity compared with lower-category cables. The 5 m length offers flexibility for typical desktop and rack connections while maintaining a compact cable run. Standard RJ-45 terminations ensure plug-and-play compatibility with common network equipment.

Suitable for

• Wired connections between desktop PCs, laptops and wall ports
• Connecting switches, routers and patch panels in small office or home setups
• High-bandwidth applications such as large file transfers and cloud backups
• Audio/video streaming and online gaming where stable wired connectivity is preferred

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil + individually shielded twisted pairs)
• Length: 5 m
• Color: Black
• Connectors: RJ-45 on both ends
• Use: Ethernet, up to 10 Gbps over suitable infrastructure

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector firmly into the corresponding network port on your devices until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and sharp edges; maintain gentle loops with a bend radius that preserves the twisted pairs. For rack or wall installations, secure the cable with appropriate clips or ties to prevent strain on the connectors. Verify link lights on connected equipment and test network throughput with diagnostic tools if needed.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the S/FTP cable parallel and close to mains power lines or other strong electromagnetic sources. Use short, undamaged runs between devices and replace any cable with visible cuts or severe kinks. When deploying in structured cabling systems, pair this Cat6a S/FTP cable with shielded patch panels and properly grounded equipment to preserve shielding effectiveness.
