Abi s ftp cat 6a cable

This S/FTP Cat 6a cable is designed for connecting network components such as routers, switches, patch panels, and end devices. The cable is used for high-speed data connections and is suitable for home networks, professional network installations, and data centers. The cable is pre-assembled with double shielding. Each wire pair is individually shielded with aluminum foil (PiMF), and the entire cable is surrounded by an aluminum braided shield. This construction limits electromagnetic interference and contributes to stable signal transmission in environments with increased demands on network performance. The halogen-free LSZH cable jacket limits smoke development and is suitable for use in public and professional environments.
