InLine patchkabel, Cat.6A, S/FTP, TPE flexibel, zwart, 20 m

The InLine Patch cable Cat.6A S/FTP TPE flexible black 20m is a high-performance Ethernet patch cable designed for reliable 10GBase-T network connections over a 20 meter run. The cable uses S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and a flexible TPE jacket for improved handling and routing in residential and commercial installations. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors provide consistent contact quality for data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s, while the black finish keeps the installation discreet.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction combines an overall shield with individually shielded pairs, delivering enhanced protection against crosstalk and external interference compared with unshielded cables. Flexible TPE material allows the cable to bend and route through tight spaces without permanent deformation, simplifying cable management. Gold-plated RJ-45 plugs ensure low contact resistance and a stable connection over repeated insertions. The 20 m length offers extended reach for wiring between racks, wall outlets and network devices without intermediate patch points.

Suitable for

• 10GBase-T local area networks in office and data center environments
• High-bandwidth home networking, streaming and NAS connections
• Connecting switches, routers, patch panels and network appliances across moderate distances
• Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is required

How to use

Route the cable between devices avoiding sharp bends and tight kinks; maintain bend radius recommendations typical for Cat.6A cabling when passing through conduits or around corners. Insert the RJ-45 plugs firmly into device ports until the latch engages. For installations in areas with potential interference, ensure proper grounding of connected equipment and maintain separation from power cables where practical. Test the link after installation using an appropriate network tester or by verifying throughput between endpoints.

Recommendations

For optimal long-term performance, avoid permanent compression or crushing of the cable and keep it away from high-voltage power lines. Use shielded patch panels or shielded equipment ports when available to preserve the benefits of the S/FTP shielding. Regular visual inspection and occasional retesting are recommended in critical installations.
