Description

Fiber Cables Direct FCD-C6SH-BT-GR-12F Shielded Cat6 Patch Cable - Green

Overview

The Fiber Cables Direct FCD-C6SH-BT-GR-12F is a 12-foot, green, snagless, shielded (STP) Cat6 Ethernet patch cable. It's designed to provide a robust and reliable network connection, minimizing electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI) in environments where signal integrity is critical. This cable is TAA compliant, making it suitable for government and certain commercial deployments. The snagless boot design prevents damage to the RJ45 connector tab during installation and removal, ensuring longevity and ease of use in network infrastructure setups.

Compatibility

This Cat6 STP patch cable is compatible with all standard networking equipment utilizing RJ45 connectors, including but not limited to:

  • Gigabit Ethernet switches and routers
  • Network Attached Storage (NAS) devices
  • IP cameras requiring wired network connectivity
  • Workstations and servers
  • VoIP phones
  • Wireless Access Points

It supports data transfer rates up to 1000 Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet) and is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 standards, though performance will be limited to the lower standard. The shielding is crucial for environments with high EMI, such as industrial facilities, medical settings, or near high-power electrical equipment, ensuring data integrity where unshielded cables would fail.

Installation Notes

The snagless boot design simplifies installation by protecting the RJ45 connector tab. Ensure the cable is routed to avoid sharp bends exceeding its minimum bend radius (typically 4x cable diameter) to maintain signal integrity. The shielded construction requires proper grounding at both ends, typically through the connected equipment's chassis, to effectively dissipate interference.
