Cables To Go 00811 4 ft Cat6 Shielded network ethernet cable Black

Shielded Cat6 patch cable

This shielded Cat6 patch cable connects network devices with RJ45 connectors at each end. The four-foot length suits short runs between a router, switch or wall jack and a desktop, laptop, printer or IP camera. Foil shielding around each twisted pair reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk in busy environments. The snagless boot protects the locking tab during repeated insertion and removal.

Installers needing EMI protection.

The STP construction targets installers who must run cable near power cables, fluorescent lighting or industrial equipment where noise would degrade an unshielded link. It is not for builders who need longer distances, outdoor-rated jackets or plenum-rated fire performance. Buyers looking for a pure voice-grade or Cat5e economy cable should look elsewhere. The bonded-pair design also adds stiffness that may not suit ultra-tight patch-panel spacing.

Four-foot length for short patch connections

The fixed four-foot length decides whether this cable reaches between your two ports without excess slack or tension. Measure the exact path from jack to device before ordering; a cable that is too short cannot be extended and one that is too long adds clutter and potential signal loss. The individual length label on each unit confirms the dimension at a glance.
