Netwerkkabel Helos CAT6a S/FTP (PIMF) 0,5 m grijs

The Helos CAT6a S/FTP (PIMF) 0.5m Grey networking cable is a short patch cable designed for high-speed Ethernet connections. It supports 10GBase-T networks and offers a data transfer rate of up to 10,000 Mbit/s. Both ends are fitted with standard RJ-45 connectors and the cable uses SF/UTP (S/FTP) shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. The compact 0.5 m length and neutral grey jacket make it convenient for tidy desk setups, patch panels, or short runs between network devices.

Advantages

The shielded S/FTP (PIMF) construction provides improved protection against external interference compared with unshielded cables, which helps maintain signal integrity at 10G speeds. The CAT6a specification supports higher bandwidth and better crosstalk performance than CAT5e or CAT6, making it suitable where reliable 10 Gigabit connections are required. RJ-45 connectors on both ends ensure compatibility with standard network ports. The short 0.5 m length minimizes excess cable in concentrated installations and keeps cable management neat.

Suitable for

• Short patch runs between switches, routers, and wall outlets
• Connecting network devices in office desks and server racks
• High-speed 10GBase-T connections for local networks
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Cabling technology: 10GBase-T
• Maximum data rate: up to 10,000 Mbit/s
• Cable length: 0.5 m
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid + individually foiled pairs; PIMF)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Colour: Grey
• Category: CAT6a

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of your network device and the other connector into the corresponding port on a switch, router, or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to guarantee a secure connection. Use the cable for short runs where 0.5 m is sufficient; avoid stretching the cable or routing it near high-voltage power lines to maintain optimal signal quality. When disconnecting, press the RJ-45 latch before pulling the connector out to prevent damage.

Recommendations

For best results in 10GBase-T applications, maintain proper cable management to prevent excessive bending and compression of the shielded jacket. Use the cable in environments where short, shielded connections are needed; pair with compatible shielded ports and grounded equipment to ensure full shielding effectiveness.
