Patch kabel InLine Cat.6A S/FTP tanek TPE (LSZH) PoE, moder, 2 m

InLine Cat.6A Slim TPE (LSZH) patch cable, 2 m in blue, provides a high‑performance wired connection for LANs, server racks and patch panels. The cable uses S/FTP shielding (foil around pairs plus overall braid) and solid copper AWG28 conductors to deliver Cat6A transmission up to 500 MHz and reliable 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance. The slim design reduces cable diameter to about 4.5 mm, saving rack space compared with conventional thicker patch cables, while the TPE jacket with LSZH properties ensures flexibility and low smoke/halogen emissions for use in confined or safety-sensitive environments.

Advantages

The slim form factor enables approximately 40% less space usage than conventional AWG26 patch cables, increasing port density in patch panels and network cabinets and improving airflow for equipment cooling. S/FTP double shielding reduces crosstalk and electromagnetic interference, supporting stable data rates and lower error rates. Solid copper AWG28 conductors preserve signal integrity over typical in-room patch lengths and the cable supports PoE including 4PPoE up to 87 W, enabling powered devices such as IP cameras, access points and VoIP phones without separate power supplies. The TPE (LSZH) jacket is halogen‑free and designed for low smoke emission while remaining flexible for tight routing.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections between switches, patch panels and servers within racks
• High‑density patching in network cabinets and telecom racks
• PoE installations supplying IP cameras, wireless access points and VoIP devices
• Data center and server room patching where airflow and space optimization matter

When it may not be suitable

This slim Cat6A patch cable is optimized for short in‑room connections and high port density; it is not intended as a permanent outdoor or direct burial cable. For installations that require extended outdoor exposure, UV resistance or armored protection, choose a cable specifically rated for those conditions. Also, for runs significantly longer than 30 m, a structured cabling solution with appropriate horizontal cabling should be used to guarantee full Cat6A performance.

How to use

Connect one RJ‑45 plug to the network port of a switch, patch panel or device and the other plug to the corresponding port on the opposite device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted and latched to maintain proper contact. For optimal performance, avoid sharp bends and tight kinks; follow the minimum bend radius recommended for AWG28 cable construction. Keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic noise sources where possible and route within patch panels or cable managers to maintain organized connectivity.

What to consider before purchase

• Required cable length and whether 2 m suits rack/panel layout
• Need for PoE power levels up to 87 W for connected devices
• Whether slim profile and AWG28 are desired for higher port density
• Environmental requirements: indoor use, LSZH jacket for low smoke
• Whether a full outdoor/UV/armored cable is needed for external runs

Recommendations

Use the cable for in‑room patching and high‑density rack installations where Cat6A performance and PoE support are required. Maintain gentle routing, avoid exceeding the recommended bend radius, and use cable managers to preserve airflow and ease maintenance.
