Netwerkkabel Helos 263804 zwart 3 m Cat6a S/FTP

The Helos 263804 Black 3 m Cat6a S/FTP is a shielded Ethernet patch cable designed for reliable high-speed network connections. Compliant with Cat6a specifications, this 3 m cable uses S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and maintain signal integrity in demanding environments. Both ends are terminated with RJ-45 connectors plated in gold for consistent contact performance and corrosion resistance. The black jacket provides a discreet appearance suitable for office, data centre, or home installations.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction combines an overall foil shield with individually shielded pairs to minimise crosstalk and external interference, which supports more stable data transmission at higher frequencies. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors improve electrical contact and wear resistance. A 3 m length offers flexibility for typical rack-to-desk and equipment-to-switch connections without excess cable slack. The black outer jacket is resistant to visible dirt and fits varied installation aesthetics.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers in office networks
• High-speed links in home network setups and media streaming
• Short runs in data centre racks and server cabinets
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil + individually shielded pairs)
• Length: 3 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Connector plating: gold-plated contacts
• Colour: Black

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet ports on your network devices such as switches, routers or network interface cards. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; keep it away from high-voltage power lines where possible to reduce interference. For installations in racks or behind furniture, use cable management clips or ties to maintain an orderly layout.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat6a S/FTP cable for runs within its 3 m length and in environments where shielding improves signal integrity. Avoid kinking the cable and maintain bend radii consistent with standard Ethernet cabling practices. When connecting to equipment with high-speed ports, verify port settings and firmware to ensure full negotiated link speeds.
