Networking Cable Tecline S/FTP Cat6A 1m Red

The Tecline S/FTP Cat6A 1m Red networking cable is a 1 metre patch cable designed for high-speed Ethernet connections. Constructed with S/FTP shielding and fitted with RJ‑45 connectors on both ends, this Cat6A cable supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s. The red jacket provides clear visual identification in patch panels and network racks and is suitable for short runs between devices in home and office environments.

Advantages

S/FTP construction (shielded foil with braided drain) reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, improving signal integrity in environments with multiple cables and electronic equipment. Cat6A specification enables 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance over short distances while preserving backward compatibility with lower category ports. The one‑metre length limits excess slack for tidy installations, and the coloured outer jacket simplifies cable management and device identification.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs, switches, routers and network outlets in office or home setups
• Patch panel and rack interconnects where short cable runs are required
• High-speed LAN segments requiring reduced interference and reliable 10 Gbps links

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6A (augmented Category 6)
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil shield with individually shielded pairs and drain wire)
• Connector type: RJ-45 on both ends
• Length: 1 metre
• Rated data speed: up to 10000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Jacket colour: red
• Typical applications: Ethernet, 10GBASE‑T, Gigabit Ethernet

How to use

Insert the RJ‑45 plugs into the corresponding Ethernet ports of your devices until you hear a click. For best performance, avoid tight bends and kinks in the cable and keep the cable run separated from power cords or sources of strong electromagnetic interference. Use the one‑metre length for direct device-to-device connections, patch panel hookups, or short links within racks and workstations. Ensure both connected devices support the required network speed to achieve 10 Gbit/s throughput.

Usage recommendations

For reliable 10 Gbit/s connections, keep cable runs within recommended distances for Cat6A and ensure correct termination and port capability. When installing multiple shielded cables, maintain proper grounding of network equipment and racks to preserve the shielding effectiveness. Use the red colour to mark critical links or designated network segments for easier maintenance.
