Networking Cable Tecline S/FTP Cat6A 1m Red

The Tecline S/FTP Cat6A 1m Red networking cable is a one-metre patch cable designed for high-speed Ethernet connections. Constructed with S/FTP (shielded foiled twisted pair) protection and terminated with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, this Cat6A cable supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links where short runs and reliable shielding are required. The red jacket provides visual identification in structured cabling environments and helps separate network segments or highlight critical connections.

Advantages

S/FTP construction reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, improving signal integrity in environments with multiple cables or nearby electrical equipment. The Cat6A specification ensures bandwidth and headroom for 10GBASE-T applications over short distances. The pre-terminated RJ-45 plugs enable immediate use without additional termination tools, and the compact 1 m length is convenient for patch panels, switch-to-workstation links, or desk-side connections. The coloured jacket makes cable management and troubleshooting faster and clearer.

Suitable for

• Short 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections between switches, servers and network devices
• Patch panel to switch or switch to workstation links in offices and data closets
• Environments requiring reduced interference such as server rooms and densely cabled racks

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6A
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually foiled pairs)
• Length: 1 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 on both ends
• Maximum data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Colour: Red
• Suitable for: 10GBASE-T and lower Ethernet standards

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the Ethernet port of your switch, router or network interface and plug the other end into the corresponding device or patch panel port. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the retaining clip engages. For best performance, avoid sharp bends near the connector and do not excessively stretch the cable. Use the 1 m length for short runs where minimal slack is preferred to maintain tidy cable management.

Usage recommendations

For optimal signal integrity, keep the cable away from high-voltage power lines and sources of strong electromagnetic interference. When installing multiple runs in racks or conduits, label both ends and use cable management accessories to prevent crushing or tight bends that could degrade performance.
