Networking Cable Tecline 3m Cat.6A Violet

The Tecline 3m Cat.6A Violet networking cable is a 3-meter Ethernet cable designed to meet Cat6a performance requirements. It features S/FTP shielding and RJ-45 connectors on both ends, providing a reliable physical link for high-speed data transmission in LAN and networked devices. The violet jacket makes the cable easy to identify in patch panels and wiring closets while maintaining compliance with category 6a electrical and transmission characteristics.

Advantages

This Cat.6A cable offers enhanced protection against electromagnetic interference thanks to its S/FTP construction, which combines an overall foil shield with individually shielded pairs. The cable supports higher frequencies and data rates compared with lower-category cables, helping to maintain signal integrity over the 3 m length. Durable RJ-45 connectors ensure consistent contact and a secure fit in standard network ports. The colored outer jacket simplifies cable management and visual identification in multi-cable installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting network switches, routers and patch panels within home or office LANs
• High-speed connections for desktop PCs, servers and network storage devices
• Use in structured cabling where reduced interference and clear labeling are required
• Temporary or permanent links in network racks, telecom enclosures and workstations

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a (augmented Category 6)
• Length: 3 meters
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil shield with individually foiled twisted pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 on both ends, 8P8C configuration
• Jacket color: Violet
• Conductor type: twisted pair copper (solid or stranded as typical for patch cables)
• Application: Ethernet networking up to Cat6a frequency range

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to the Ethernet port of your device and the other to a compatible switch, router or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch engages to provide a secure mechanical and electrical connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; maintain bend radii recommended for twisted-pair cabling to preserve performance. For fixed installations, use appropriate cable management accessories to prevent stress on the connectors and to keep the violet cable visible among other runs.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use this Cat.6A cable within its 3 m length for in-rack or short-run connections where S/FTP shielding improves immunity to nearby sources of interference. Avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines for long distances. When terminating into keystone jacks or punch-down panels, verify compatibility with shielding termination practices to preserve the cable's S/FTP effectiveness.
