Cavo di rete Helos CAT6a S/FTP (PIMF) 0,5 m

The Helos CAT6a S/FTP (PIMF) 0.5m networking cable is a short patch cable designed for 10GBase-T environments. It features SF/UTP shielding (S/FTP) with pairwise internal foil (PIMF) to reduce crosstalk and electromagnetic interference. Both ends are fitted with RJ-45 connectors and the cable is finished in black for a discreet appearance in racks and desktop setups. The cable supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is intended for reliable, high-speed connections over a short distance.

Advantages

The S/FTP (PIMF) shielding construction provides improved protection against external interference and pair-to-pair crosstalk compared with unshielded alternatives. Its half-meter length reduces excess cable slack in patch panels and between closely placed devices. RJ-45 termination maintains compatibility with standard Ethernet ports and 10GBase-T equipment. The compact length and black outer jacket make it practical for tidy, space-constrained installations.

Suitable for

• Connecting network switches to servers or uplinks in racks where distance is short
• Patch connections between wall outlets and desktop devices in offices with short cable runs
• High-speed 10GBase-T links within data cabinets or between adjacent network appliances
• Test benches and labs requiring short, shielded Ethernet connections

Key specifications

• Cable length: 0.5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 on both ends
• Cabling technology: 10GBase-T
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with individually foil-wrapped pairs / PIMF)
• Maximum data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Colour: Black

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet ports of the devices to be linked, ensuring secure seating until the connector latch clicks. Use the cable for short, direct connections where 0.5 m length is sufficient; avoid running the cable under tension or through sharp bends to maintain shielding and conductor integrity. For installations in shielded environments or where grounding is required, ensure equipment chassis or patch panels provide an appropriate shield termination.

Recommendations

For optimal performance at 10GBase-T speeds, use the cable for connections within the specified short distance and pair it with compatible shielded ports and patch panels. Keep the cable clear of high-power electrical cabling to reduce potential interference, and avoid repeated sharp bending near the connectors to preserve mechanical and electrical reliability.
