Patch cable Telegärtner Cat.6A ISO LSZH, 3 m, stranded, RJ45

Telegärtner Cat.6A ISO LSZH patch cable, 3 m, stranded, terminated with RJ45 connectors, is designed for high-frequency data transmission up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet. The cable features a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) outer jacket to limit toxic fumes and dense smoke in case of fire, making it suitable for installations in confined or public spaces. Constructed for Cat6A performance, the cable provides enhanced shielding and controlled pair geometry to meet the requirements of modern horizontal cabling between switches, patch panels and end devices.

Advantages

This Telegärtner Cat.6A cable offers transmission performance suitable for 10GBASE-T with improved alien crosstalk resistance compared to lower categories. The stranded conductor construction improves flexibility for routing in patching fields and desk connections. The RJ45 terminations ensure compatibility with standard network ports on switches, routers, patch panels and workstations. The LSZH jacket reduces the risk associated with toxic gases and dense smoke during a fire, supporting safer deployment in offices, data centers with strict fire codes and public buildings.

Suitable for

• Horizontal patching between switches and patch panels in structured cabling
• Connections from wall outlets to desktop PCs, VoIP phones or access points
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in short to medium runs within server rooms and network closets
• Environments requiring low-smoke, halogen-free cabling for safety compliance

When it may not be suitable

This stranded Cat6A patch cable is optimized for flexibility and short to medium patch lengths; it is not intended as a permanent solid-conductor in-wall installation cable where solid-core cables are required by cabling standards. For long permanent horizontal runs or outdoor use, a dedicated solid-core, outdoor-rated or gel-filled cable should be chosen. The cable length and stranded conductor type mean expect slightly higher attenuation compared with equivalent solid-core horizontal cables over longer distances.

Key specifications

• Category: Class EA / Cat6A performance for up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Length: 3 m
• Conductor type: stranded conductors for increased flexibility
• Connectors: RJ45 terminated on both ends
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Use case: patching and equipment interconnect in horizontal cabling

How to use

Connect one RJ45 plug to the network device (switch, router or patch panel) and the other to the endpoint such as a PC, VoIP phone or access point. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and excessive tension; maintain bend radius recommended by the connector and cable manufacturer. For structured cabling, label both ends if used in patch panels for easier management. Test the installed link with appropriate cable testers or network analyzers when deploying in performance-sensitive environments.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm required cable length and whether stranded or solid conductor is appropriate for your installation
• Verify that Cat6A performance is needed for your network speed and future-proofing plans
• Check building or site regulations for LSZH requirement in occupied or public areas
• Ensure connector type (RJ45) matches the ports on your devices

Usage recommendations

Use the Telegärtner Cat.6A ISO LSZH 3 m patch cable for short patching runs where flexibility and low-smoke materials are required. For best results, avoid tight bends, secure cables to prevent strain on the connectors, and perform link certification if deploying as part of a high-performance 10 Gigabit Ethernet network.
