Netwerkkabel S/CONN Cat6a 0,5 m rood

The ShiverPeaks Networking Cable S/CONN Cat6a 0.5m Red is a short patch cable designed for high-speed Ethernet connections in environments where space is limited. This Cat6a cable uses S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, and it comes with RJ-45 connectors on both ends for straightforward plug-and-play installation. Its 0.5 meter length and red jacket help keep installations neat and identifiable when connecting devices in close proximity.

Advantages

The cable’s S/FTP shielding provides enhanced protection against external interference and pair-to-pair crosstalk, supporting reliable data transmission at higher frequencies. The Cat6a specification ensures compatibility with 10 Gigabit Ethernet over short distances, while the compact 0.5 m length minimizes cable slack and improves cable management. The color-coded red jacket makes it easy to identify specific links in dense wiring setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting network devices in racks or desktop setups where ports are close together
• Patch panels and switches in server rooms with short patch runs
• Home office or multimedia systems requiring tidy, short cable connections
• Color-coded cabling schemes for easy identification and troubleshooting

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall shield plus individually shielded pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 on both ends
• Length: 0.5 m
• Jacket color: Red
• Supported data rates: suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over short distances
• Typical use: patch cable for short-distance Ethernet connections

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network port of your switch, router or computer and the other plug to the corresponding device or patch panel port. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until you hear or feel a click to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; the short 0.5 m length makes it ideal for direct links between closely located devices. No special drivers or configuration are required for the cable itself.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat6a S/CONN cable for short runs within racks, between adjacent devices and in structured cabling where reduced interference is important. Avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines and keep bend radii gentle to maintain transmission integrity.
