Product Description
This is a Cat6A patch cable that's ready to plug in — no crimping or termination needed, just connect it between your switch, NVR, patch panel or PC.
What it does
The U/FTP shielding wraps each of the four twisted pairs in its own foil screen. In plain terms: less electromagnetic interference and crosstalk when several network cables are bundled together, which is exactly what happens behind a rack full of NVRs and PoE switches in a comms cabinet or server room.
It's rated for Cat6A, so it supports Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet — useful headroom if you're running multiple PoE cameras or high-bitrate NVR traffic over the same backbone.
The jacket matters too
It's finished in LSFH (Low Smoke Free Halogen) — a jacket type specified in commercial buildings and public spaces where fire regulations require reduced smoke and no halogen gas if the cable is ever exposed to fire. Worth checking against your site's cabling spec before you order in bulk.
Practical notes
- Pre-terminated RJ45 connectors at both ends — no field termination required
- White jacket for a tidy look in structured cabling runs, offices and server rooms
- Suited to data centres, office networks and general network infrastructure
If you're linking CCTV NVRs to switches or patch panels, check your run length and how many cables you're bundling — shielding helps most where cable density is high.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does U/FTP actually mean for this cable?
Each of the four twisted pairs has its own foil shield, which helps reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk when cables are bundled close together, such as in a rack.
Will this cable handle 10 Gigabit Ethernet?
Yes, it's rated to Cat6A specifications, which supports both Gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications.
Do I need to terminate the ends myself?
No, it comes with pre-terminated RJ45 connectors at both ends, so it connects directly between devices like switches, NVRs and patch panels.
Why choose LSFH over a standard PVC jacket?
LSFH (Low Smoke Free Halogen) is specified for commercial buildings and public spaces where fire regulations require reduced smoke and no halogen gas release if exposed to fire.
