Draka Cat6A S/FTP Patch Leads
FAQs
Draka Cat6A S/FTP patch leads are shielded RJ45 Ethernet cables designed for high performance structured cabling systems. They are typically used to connect switches, patch panels, servers, and network outlets in enterprise LANs, telecommunications rooms, and data center environments where reliable high speed connectivity is required.
S/FTP stands for Shielded / Foiled Twisted Pair, meaning the cable includes an overall braided shield along with individual foil shielding around each twisted pair. This double shielded design helps reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) and external noise, improving signal quality in dense networking environments.
Draka Cat6A S/FTP patch leads are designed to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T) networking with bandwidth up to 500 MHz, making them suitable for high bandwidth applications in modern data centers and enterprise networks.
Draka Cat6A patch cords typically include 26 AWG stranded copper conductors, gold plated RJ45 contacts, LSZH cable jackets, and moulded strain-relief boots. These features help maintain stable signal transmission while protecting the connectors from damage during repeated patching in structured cabling installations.
