Network patch cable Telegärtner Cat.7 MP8 FS 600 LSZH 0.5 m, 1x 90° angled, red

Telegärtner Cat.7 MP8 FS 600 LSZH patch cable, 0.5 m in red, is a shielded, high-frequency network lead designed for short connections in server racks, patch panels and devices located in tight spaces. The cable meets Category 7 performance up to 600 MHz and uses an S/FTP pair shielding structure with a fully shielded MP8 FS 600 plug. One end is fitted with a 90° angled connector to reduce strain and save space where clearance is limited, while the moulded strain relief boot and flexible construction support repeated handling and routing.

Advantages

This Cat.7 patch cable provides up to 600 MHz transmission capacity for shielded Ethernet links and is manufactured with complete 360° plug shielding to preserve signal integrity in environments with potential electromagnetic interference. The LSZH jacket reduces the amount of smoke and avoids halogen emissions in case of fire, making it appropriate for installations with stricter safety requirements. The combination of a short 0.5 m length and a single 90° angled connector enables neat, low-profile connections in crowded racks and equipment bays.

Suitable for

• Short patching between switch ports and patch panels in server rooms and data centers
• Connections in racks and enclosures where space behind equipment is limited
• Shielded cabling topologies requiring S/FTP (individually shielded pairs with overall braid)
• Installations requiring low-smoke, halogen-free cabling materials

When it may not be suitable

This 0.5 m cable is intended for short-distance patching and is not suitable for long horizontal runs or backbone cabling. If an installation requires unshielded cabling, Category 5e/6/6a performance, or different connector types, this shielded Cat.7 lead with MP8 FS 600 plugs and LSZH jacket may not be the correct choice.

Key specifications

• Cable category: Category 7 (ISO/IEC 11801 ed.2) with performance up to 600 MHz
• Construction: S/FTP — shielded overall braid with individually shielded pairs
• Connector type: MP8 FS 600 plug, one end 90° angled, other end straight
• Shielding: 360° fully surround plug shielding
• Length: 0.5 m
• Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke, Zero Halogen)
• Strain relief: moulded boot, flexible and strain relieved
• Termination: wiring 1:1 according to EIA/TIA 568

How to use

Route the cable through the rack or cabinet to the required ports, ensuring the 90° angled connector aligns with the available clearance behind the device. Insert the MP8 FS 600 plugs fully into the corresponding shielded Ethernet ports until the connector latches. Avoid sharp bends at the connector and maintain a gentle bend radius consistent with the cable construction. For shielded systems, ensure that equipment and patch panels provide a proper earth/ground connection to maintain EMI protection.

What to consider before purchase

• Required cable length and whether a 0.5 m patch cord is sufficient for your layout
• Compatibility of MP8 FS 600 connectors with the devices and patch panels in use
• Whether shielded cabling (S/FTP) and grounding are supported in your installation
• Need for LSZH jacket for reduced smoke and halogen-free requirements

Usage recommendations

Use this short Cat.7 LSZH patch cable to achieve reliable shielded connections in high-density rack environments; pair it with properly grounded shielded patch panels and maintain gentle bend radii to preserve performance and mechanical life.
