S/FTP Patch Cord Cat.6 VALUE 2m Halogen-free Green

The VALUE S/FTP Patch Cord Cat.6, 2 m, halogen-free and green, is a shielded twisted-pair patch cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. It is designed for use as a patch cable in wiring cabinets or as a direct connection between network devices. The cable uses 8 stranded copper conductors with a braided shield and an impedance of 100 Ω, and the contact wiring is 1:1 according to EIA/TIA 568. The outer jacket is LSOH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen), which limits smoke emission and avoids halogens when exposed to high heat sources. This cable-plug combination has been tested in a 100 m channel and complies with Class E (Cat.6) specifications.

Advantages

The S/FTP design provides improved protection against electromagnetic interference compared with unshielded cables, supporting stable data transmission up to Cat.6 performance. Flexible stranded conductors make the cable suitable for installations that require narrow bending radii. The LSOH jacket reduces toxic and corrosive gases in the event of fire, and the green color assists identification within structured cabling systems.

Suitable for

• Patch connections in wiring cabinets and network racks
• Direct device-to-device connections (switch to server, switch to workstation)
• Structured cabling systems requiring shielded Cat.6 patch cords

Key specifications

• Length: 2 m
• Cable type: S/FTP (shielded foil around each pair + braided overall shield)
• Conductors: 8 stranded copper wires
• Impedance: 100 Ω
• Contact wiring: 1:1 (EIA/TIA 568)
• Jacket: LSOH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
• Connector: RJ-45 on both ends
• Standard performance: Cat.6 / Class E (tested in 100 m channel)
• Color: Green

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to the network port of a switch, patch panel or wall jack and the other RJ-45 connector to the corresponding device port. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Avoid sharp bends and do not stretch the cable; maintain a gentle bend radius during routing to preserve signal integrity. Keep the braided shield termination intact when plugging into shielded ports to maintain the shielding effectiveness.

Usage recommendations

For structured cabling, pair this patch cord with compatible Cat.6 components such as VALUE shielded wall jacks and patch panels and, for permanent installation runs, use solid-wire Cat.6 S/FTP cable. Do not exceed recommended bend radius and avoid placement near strong electrical noise sources to ensure optimal performance.
