METZ CONNECT 142M2X20010 CAT 6a S/FTP-patchkabel 1 m grijs

The METZ CONNECT 142M2X20010 is a high-performance CAT 6a S/FTP patch cable designed for reliable 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections. With a length of 1 meter and a grey LSZH jacket, this cable is ideal for data centers, enterprise networks, and demanding industrial environments where signal integrity and safety are paramount.

Advantages

This cable offers superior shielding with S/FTP construction (pairs in metal foil plus overall braid) to minimize crosstalk and electromagnetic interference. The stranded bare copper conductors (AWG 26/7) provide flexibility while maintaining excellent conductivity. The molded snagless boots protect the RJ45 connectors during installation and removal, ensuring long-term durability.
