Looking for a cable made for performance and reliability in demanding environments? The OFC 26AWG CAT6A S/FTP CM Cable is specifically built for today’s modern network and LAN applications, where a stable connection and durability are of utmost importance. Whether you’re outfitting a data center, upgrading a factory floor, or simply needing a quality shielded twisted pair cable for your latest project, this flexible bulk raw cable will deliver.
Why Choose an OFC Shielded Twisted Pair Cable?
Oxygen-free copper (OFC) cable is highly regarded for its conductivity and corrosion resistance. This means you will suffer less signal loss and a more consistent signal, especially on long cable runs. In this CAT6A S/FTP (Shielded Foiled Twisted Pair), this cable has all of the 8 cores individually shielded and then foil shielded overall, giving you a robust cable that will reject electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI). This is particularly useful in industrial applications or anywhere electronic noise is an issue.
The CM rating for this cable means that it passes strict fire codes, sufficient to use in the construction of commercial buildings. With a flexible design and available in PVC or PUR jackets, this cable provides a hassle-free installation even in tight spaces or complex cable trays.
Where Does This Cable Excel?
Industrial Automation: Easily connect control panels, sensors and PLCs where reliability is of great concern.
Data Centers: Great for patch panels and server racks where high density network environments are in place.
Commercial LANs: Use as bulk raw cable for custom length patch Ethernet cables, particularly when shielded twisted pair cable is required.
Outdoor & Harsh Environments: The PUR jacket option provides added resistance to oil, chemicals and abrasion. The PVC-coated MC cable is well suited for general indoor use.
Real World Example:
Consider setting up a manufacturing line with motors, welders, and robotics that all have electrical noise. In the case of unshielded standard cables, packet drops and unreliable connections are a common issue. If you choose this shielded twisted pair cable, you will be able to keep your network fast and noise free despite the conditions.
