S/FTP patchkabel Cat6 Dätwyler 0,5 m grijs

The Dätwyler S/FTP Patch Cable Cat6 0.5m in grey is a compact network cable designed for high-speed data transmission in structured cabling and short interconnect applications. Constructed with S/FTP shielding (overall braid with individually foil-shielded pairs), the cable reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, providing consistent performance for gigabit Ethernet and other high-bandwidth protocols. Its 0.5 meter length and flexible jacket make it suitable for patch panels, network switches and devices positioned close together.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction offers enhanced protection against external interference while maintaining pair integrity for reliable signal transfer. As a Cat6 cable, it supports increased bandwidth and improved next-neighbour crosstalk performance compared to Cat5e, making it appropriate for gigabit networks. The short 0.5m length minimizes excess cable clutter and signal degradation in patching scenarios, and the grey jacket provides a neutral appearance for professional installations. The cable is manufactured by a known specialist brand, ensuring consistent build quality and connector fit.

Suitable for

• Connecting network devices at close range (switch-to-switch, switch-to-server, patch panel)
• Data centers and server racks with short patch runs
• Office desktop connections where minimal cable slack is required
• Environments with moderate electromagnetic interference requiring shielded cabling

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6 performance suitable for gigabit Ethernet
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braided shield with individually foil-shielded pairs)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Color: Grey jacket
• Connector type: RJ45 on both ends (standard 8P8C modular plugs)
• Typical conductor: Solid or stranded copper conductors designed for patch cable use

How to use

Route the S/FTP Cat6 patch cable between the two network ports you intend to connect, ensuring both RJ45 plugs are fully inserted until they click into place. For installations involving shielded equipment or panels, make sure the connector shells and any panel cutouts provide proper grounding paths to maintain the effectiveness of the S/FTP shielding. Avoid sharp bends and kinks; maintain a gentle bend radius to preserve cable integrity and signal quality. For best results in permanent or high-density installations, label both ends to identify connections and reduce troubleshooting time.

Ieteikumi lietošanai

Use this shielded Cat6 patch cable in short runs where interference reduction and tidy cable management are priorities. Verify grounding at patch panels and switches when integrating shielded cables into an existing infrastructure to ensure shielding effectiveness.
