General
Plug connection	RJ-45 ST / RJ-45 ST

The patch cable from Intellinet, manufacturer's number 392402, is a data cable of category Cat5, designed as SFTP (Shielded Foil Twisted Pair). It connects two RJ-45 connectors with straight plugs (ST/ST) and has a length of 1.0 metres. The cable is black and is used for data transmission in local area networks (LAN), particularly in environments where a high level of protection against electromagnetic interference is required.

Protection class and shielding
The cable features double shielding: it has foil and braid shielding (SFTP), ensuring effective protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk. This shielding is especially important in environments with high electromagnetic interference, such as server rooms, industrial installations, or near high-frequency equipment. The shielding ensures data integrity is maintained over the entire length of the cable.

Construction and mechanical properties
The cable has a particularly slim snagless design, preventing tangling and damage to the connectors during installation and cabling. The connectors are equipped with a stable strain relief, reducing mechanical stress at the connection point and ensuring a longer service life for the cable. The contacts of the RJ-45 connectors are gold-plated, ensuring a reliable electrical connection and high resistance to corrosion.

Impedance and standards
The cable is designed with matched impedance, optimised for data transmission in Ethernet networks. The impedance is rated at 100 Ohm, stabilising signal quality and transmission rate.

Applications
The cable is suitable for use in local area networks (LAN), particularly in environments with high electromagnetic interference. It can be used to connect network devices such as switches, routers, PCs, printers, or network storage systems. Due to its shielding, it is also suitable for use in industrial installations or areas with high electromagnetic influences.

Operation and benefits
The combination of SFTP shielding, gold-plated contacts, and stable strain relief ensures reliable and long-lasting data transmission. The 10-year warranty highlights the product's quality and reliability. The slim snagless design facilitates installation, especially in tight cabling channels or when routing through patch panels.

Compatibility and accessories
The cable is compatible with all devices featuring RJ-45 connectors that support Cat5 connections. It can be combined with other Cat5 or Cat5e cables, provided the shielding and impedance requirements are met.
