Netwerkkabel Dätwyler 21.05.0521 rood 2m Cat6a S/FTP

The Dätwyler 21.05.0521 Red 2m Cat6a S/FTP networking cable is a two-meter, factory-terminated Ethernet cable designed to support high-speed data transmission over copper networks. Built to Cat6a specifications with S/FTP shielding, this cable reduces alien crosstalk and electromagnetic interference, enabling stable performance in demanding network environments. The cable terminates in RJ-45 connectors on both ends and features a red outer jacket for easy identification of network segments or special-purpose links.

Advantages

This Cat6a S/FTP cable provides improved signal integrity compared with lower-category cables by combining foil shielding around each pair with an overall braided shield to minimize both pair-to-pair and external interference. The factory-fitted RJ-45 plugs ensure consistent contact quality and reduce installation time. With a two-meter length, the cable is suitable for neat, short connections between devices such as switches, patch panels and endpoints, while the red jacket makes cable runs easily visible for maintenance and management.

Suitable for

• Short-distance connections between switches, patch panels and workstations
• Wiring in office racks and server cabinets where shielded cables are required
• High-speed 10 Gigabit Ethernet links within structured cabling systems
• Environments with elevated electromagnetic interference (near motors, power supplies, or dense cable bundles)

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a (augmented Category 6)
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braided shield with foil-shielded pairs)
• Length: 2 meters
• Connector type: RJ-45 on both ends, factory-terminated
• Color: Red outer jacket for visual identification
• Performance: Suitable for 10 Gbps Ethernet over appropriate channel distances

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network port of your switch, router, patch panel or network device and plug the other end into the corresponding port on the connected device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click and that the cable is routed without excessive bending or sharp kinks. When used in shielded installations, verify that both ends are connected to properly grounded shielded ports or panels to maintain shielding effectiveness.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines and maintain manufacturer-recommended bend radius limits. Use the red cable to mark critical paths or specific VLANs and document its location in your cable management system. In shielded systems, ensure continuity of grounding at both ends to preserve the S/FTP shielding benefits.
