METZ CONNECT 1308450300-E Cat.6A S/FTP patchkabel, 3m, zwart, LSZH, 10Gbps

With a 500 MHz bandwidth and S/FTP shielding, this 3-meter Cat.6A patch cable delivers flawless 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance even in high-interference environments. Each twisted pair is individually wrapped in metal foil (PiMF) and the entire bundle is protected by an overall braid, virtually eliminating crosstalk and EMI. The black LSZH jacket is halogen-free and flame-retardant, making it safe for use in public spaces and confined areas. Gold-plated RJ45 connectors ensure reliable, corrosion-resistant connections, while the snagless molded boots protect the locking tabs during installation. This cable is fully PoE++ ready (IEEE 802.3bt) to power high-wattage devices such as PTZ cameras, access points, and LED lighting.

Overview

The METZ CONNECT 1308450300-E is a premium Cat.6A patch cable engineered for demanding network environments. Its S/FTP construction (individually foil-shielded pairs plus overall braid) ensures maximum signal integrity over 10GBASE-T links. The stranded AWG26 bare copper conductors provide flexibility without compromising performance, making it ideal for high-density data centers, enterprise networks, and industrial applications. With a length of 3 meters, it offers convenient reach for patching between panels, switches, and devices.
