Black Box C6S-P-SB-SLD-YL-198 Shielded CAT6 Ethernet Cable
Overview
The Black Box C6S-P-SB-SLD-YL-198 is a 198-foot, shielded CAT6 Ethernet cable designed for reliable data transmission in environments where electromagnetic interference (EMI) is a concern. Its construction ensures signal integrity for critical applications, including IP surveillance systems and network infrastructure deployments. The cable's solid copper conductors and shielding mitigate crosstalk and external noise, making it suitable for runs up to the full 100-meter (328 ft) standard, though this specific SKU is 198 feet. The black color aids in discreet installation within conduit or alongside other cabling.
Compatibility
This CAT6 STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) cable is compatible with all standard networking equipment that uses RJ45 connectors, including switches, routers, IP cameras, NVRs, and network-connected devices. It supports data rates up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T) over shorter distances and is backward compatible with 10/100/1000BASE-T networks. Ensure connected devices and network infrastructure support CAT6 performance standards for optimal throughput.
Installation Notes
For optimal performance and to maintain the integrity of the shielding, ensure that the cable is properly terminated using shielded RJ45 connectors and that the shield is connected to ground at one end of the cable run, typically at the network switch or patch panel. Avoid sharp bends or kinks, which can degrade signal quality. The cable is rated for indoor use.
