Black Box C6S-R-SB-SLD-VT-20 Shielded CAT6 Cable
Overview
The Black Box C6S-R-SB-SLD-VT-20 is a 20-foot, black, shielded Category 6 Ethernet cable designed for reliable data transmission in demanding network environments. Its STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) construction and PVC jacket make it suitable for installations where electromagnetic interference (EMI) is a concern, such as in proximity to power cables or industrial equipment. This cable ensures signal integrity for IP cameras, network switches, and other critical infrastructure, preventing data errors and performance degradation. The C6S-R-SB-SLD-VT-20 model provides a specific length for straightforward deployment in rack-to-device or device-to-device runs.
Compatibility
This cable is compatible with all standard networking equipment utilizing RJ45 connectors, including but not limited to: network switches, routers, IP cameras, NVRs, and workstations. It supports data rates up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) over shorter distances and is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 standards. Ensure your connected devices support the desired network speed and that the cable run length adheres to Ethernet standards for optimal performance.
Installation Notes
The cable features a durable black PVC jacket suitable for in-wall or exposed runs where flexibility and protection against EMI are required. The shielding helps maintain signal integrity by grounding out external noise. Ensure proper grounding of the cable shield at one end (typically at the switch or patch panel) to effectively dissipate interference. Avoid sharp bends or kinks that could compromise the internal conductors or shielding.
