Patch Cable Cat.6A LSZH Telegärtner 100008285, 2 m, ISO

Telegärtner Patch Cable Cat.6A LSZH, 2 m, ISO is a shielded network patch cable designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and high-speed local area network connections. The cable uses Cat.6A transmission characteristics and a low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) outer jacket to reduce hazardous emissions in confined or public spaces. With a 2 m length it is intended for short patching runs between switches, patch panels and wall outlets in office, server room and data centre installations.

Advantages

The cable provides Cat6A performance suitable for 10 Gbps links and supports high-frequency signal integrity for demanding LAN traffic. The LSZH jacket reduces toxic and corrosive fumes in case of fire, improving safety in enclosed environments. Its factory-terminated construction ensures consistent connector quality and quick deployment for patching tasks.

Suitable for

• Patching between network switches and patch panels over short distances
• Connecting wall outlets to workstation or network equipment
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet and high-bandwidth LAN applications
• Installations where low-smoke zero-halogen materials are required (offices, public buildings, data centres)

When it may not be suitable

This 2 m patch cable is not intended for long permanent horizontal cabling runs or in-wall installations where different fire ratings or installation standards apply. It may not be appropriate if unshielded cabling is specifically required by the existing infrastructure or if longer reach is needed to bridge distant equipment.

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.6A
• Length: 2 m
• Jacket type: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Intended data rate: up to 10 Gbps
• Typical application: patching between switches, patch panels and outlets
• Connector type: factory-terminated RJ45 compatible

How to use

Connect one end of the patch cable to the RJ45 port of the source device (for example a switch or patch panel) and the other end to the destination device or outlet. Ensure connectors are fully seated and routing avoids tight bends or compression that could damage the cable or degrade performance. For patch panels and racks, use appropriate cable management to keep patch cords organized and to maintain bend radius and airflow.

What to consider before purchase

• Required cable length for the specific patching scenario
• Whether LSZH jacket is required by building codes or safety policies
• Compatibility with existing shielded or unshielded infrastructure
• Needed data rate (verify support for 10 Gbps links)

Usage recommendations

Use this Cat.6A LSZH patch cable for short, high-performance connections where 10 Gigabit capability and low-smoke materials are required. Maintain correct bend radius, avoid tight bundling under heavy load, and keep patch cords labeled and managed within racks to preserve signal quality and simplify troubleshooting.
