S/CONN Cat 6 S/FTP 0,5m netwerkkabel wit Cat6 S/FTP S-STP

The S/CONN Cat 6 S/FTP 0.5m networking cable White Cat6 S/FTP S-STP is a short patch cable designed for reliable Ethernet connections in compact setups. This Cat6 cable uses S/FTP (shielded foiled twisted pair with overall braid) construction to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, and it is fitted with RJ-45 connectors plated with gold to improve contact quality and corrosion resistance. Its 0.5 m length makes it suitable for connecting devices situated close together, such as wall ports to switches, desktop equipment to patch panels, or networked audio/video components.

Advantages

The S/FTP design provides enhanced protection against external interference compared with unshielded cables, resulting in more stable signal transmission at higher data rates. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors offer reliable contact and lower contact resistance for consistent performance. The short 0.5 m length minimizes excess cable clutter and signal attenuation over short runs, while the Cat6 specification supports gigabit Ethernet and higher bandwidth applications within typical channel limits. The cable's white jacket offers a discreet appearance for visible installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting network devices in close proximity (switch to wall outlet, desktop to patch panel)
• Home and small office gigabit Ethernet connections
• Audio/video networked components requiring short, shielded interconnects
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference where shielded cabling is preferred

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid plus foil on each twisted pair)
• Connector type: RJ-45 with gold plating
• Length: 0.5 m
• Outer jacket color: White
• Typical supported applications: Gigabit Ethernet and high-speed data transfer over short distances

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network ports on your devices until the connector latch clicks into place. Ensure connectors are fully seated to maintain secure contact. Use the 0.5 m cable to connect devices that are close together to reduce cable slack and maintain tidy cable management. Avoid sharp bends near the connector ends and do not apply excessive force or tension to the cable to preserve shielding integrity and connector contacts.

Recommendations

For best results, use this short S/CONN Cat6 S/FTP cable where a shielded connection is required and the devices are within half a meter of each other. Keep the cable away from strong power sources and fold or route it without tight kinks. In installations with mixed shielded and unshielded components, ensure proper grounding of shielded terminations to realize the full benefit of S/FTP shielding.
