Networking Cable Wentronic 77624 Cat6 S/FTP 100m Black

The Wentronic 77624 Cat6 S/FTP 100m cable in black is a networking cable designed for structured cabling and data transmission in small and medium-sized installations. It uses Cat6 specifications with S/FTP (screened overall with foil-shielded twisted pairs) construction to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, delivering stable performance for Ethernet networks up to Gigabit speeds. The 100-meter spool provides sufficient length for runs between patch panels, switches and workstations while the black outer jacket gives a discrete appearance in server rooms and along cable routes.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding provides improved protection against external noise sources and minimizes pair-to-pair interference compared with unshielded cable types. The cable meets Cat6 performance parameters for bandwidth and near-end crosstalk, supporting reliable data transfer over typical horizontal cabling distances. The 100 m length on a spool simplifies installation planning and reduces the need for splicing. The black PVC jacket offers mechanical protection and a professional look in visible installations.

Suitable for

• Ethernet LAN installations up to Gigabit speeds
• Office and commercial structured cabling runs
• Connecting switches, patch panels and networked devices
• Environments with moderate electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6 performance class suitable for Gigabit Ethernet
• Shielding: S/FTP – overall braid or screen plus foil-shielded individual pairs
• Length: 100 meters on spool
• Outer jacket color: black
• Conductor type: twisted pairs (solid or stranded depending on assembly method)
• Typical use: horizontal and backbone cabling within buildings

How to use

Plan the cable route and measure required lengths before unspooling to avoid excess bends and tension. Terminate the cable using compatible RJ45 Cat6 connectors or punch-down keystone jacks following standard wiring schemes (T568A or T568B) and maintain the shielding continuity where required by the installation: ensure the overall screen and pair shields are correctly grounded or connected to the shielded connectors. Observe maximum recommended horizontal run lengths to preserve signal integrity and avoid routing cable near high-voltage power lines or large electrical equipment when possible.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, use shielded patch panels and shielded connectors when deploying S/FTP cable, and ensure proper grounding of the shield at one point to prevent ground loops. Avoid tight bending radii and excessive pulling force during installation; follow local cabling standards and building codes for fire rating and conduit use.
