Sieťový kábel Dätwyler Cables 21.05.0501 červený 0,5 m Cat6a S/FTP

The Dätwyler Cables 21.05.0501 Red 0.5m Cat6a S/FTP is a short patch cable designed for reliable high-speed network connections. Built to the Cat6a standard with S/FTP shielding, this 0.5 metre cable provides consistent performance for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links over short distances. The integrated RJ-45 connectors at both ends ensure straightforward connectivity for switches, routers, patch panels and network appliances, while the red jacket improves visibility and cable management in dense installations.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding (overall braid plus individually shielded pairs) reduces crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference, supporting stable high-frequency signal transmission. The Cat6a specification permits higher bandwidth and improved headroom for Gigabit and 10 Gigabit applications compared with lower category cables. A half-metre length minimises slack in patching environments and helps maintain tidy cable runs. The red sheath makes identification of specific links or circuits easier during installation and maintenance.

Suitable for

• Patching between rack equipment and switches in data cabinets
• Short horizontal links in server rooms and telecom closets
• Connections to network appliances where colour-coded identification is required
• High-speed links for 1G/10G Ethernet over short distances

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid + individually shielded pairs)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 on both ends
• Colour: Red
• Support: Designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over short distances

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to the network port of the switch, router, or patch panel and the other connector to the target device. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks to establish reliable contact. For best performance, avoid tight bends or kinks and keep the cable run free from strong sources of electromagnetic interference. Use the short length to reduce excess slack in rack-mounted setups and label the ends if required for documentation.

Recommendations

For 10G links, verify that connected ports and hardware support the required speed and that patch panels and keystone modules are rated for Cat6a. Maintain bend radius recommendations and avoid running the cable in parallel with power lines to minimise interference. Use the red colour to implement a colour-coding scheme for critical links or specific network segments.
