Product Information

Full details

This Lindy Cat.7 S/FTP LSZH network cable is designed for high-speed data transmission in demanding environments such as data centers and server rooms. It offers robust shielding and gold-plated connectors for reliable, corrosion-free connections supporting up to 600MHz bandwidth and 10GBase-T speeds. A key benefit is its superior signal integrity and durability, though users should note the RJ45 connectors are rated for Cat.6A, while the cable itself is Cat.7.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the main advantage of S/FTP shielding?

S/FTP (Shielded/Foiled Twisted Pair) shielding provides a high level of protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, ensuring cleaner signal transmission and more reliable performance, especially in noisy environments.

Can I use this cable with my Cat.6 network?

Yes, this Cat.7 cable with RJ45 connectors is backward compatible and will work perfectly with Cat.6, Cat.5e, and older Ethernet standards. However, the network speed will be limited by the slowest component in the chain.

What does LSZH mean for this cable?

LSZH stands for Low Smoke Zero Halogen. Cables made with LSZH materials emit significantly less smoke and no toxic halogenated gases when exposed to fire, improving safety in enclosed spaces like server rooms.

Why does the connector say Cat.6A but the cable is Cat.7?

The RJ45 connector has been developed to meet the performance needs of Cat.7 cabling. While the original Cat.7 standard included GG45 connectors, the market adopted RJ45. The cable material is true Cat.7, providing 600MHz performance, and the Cat.6A rated RJ45 connectors ensure compatibility and high performance.

What is the warranty period for this cable?

This product comes with a 10-year warranty.

What is the maximum data speed this cable supports?

This cable is designed to support Ethernet standards up to 10GBase-T, with a bandwidth of 600MHz.

Troubleshooting

No network connection after plugging in

Verify that both ends of the cable are securely seated in their respective ports. Test with another known working cable to rule out a faulty port or device. Ensure network drivers are up-to-date on your devices.

Slow network speeds or intermittent connection

Check for physical damage to the cable or connectors. Ensure the cable is not excessively bent or kinked. Verify that the connected devices and network infrastructure support the expected speeds (e.g., 10GBase-T). Test with a shorter, known-good cable if possible to rule out cable issues.

Device not recognized by network

Reseat both ends of the cable. Try a different port on your switch or router. If using static IP addresses, ensure they are correctly configured and within the same subnet.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior shielding (S/FTP) for excellent noise immunity.
  • High bandwidth capacity (600MHz) for future-proofing and high-performance needs.
  • Durable construction with gold-plated connectors and snagless design.
  • LSZH material enhances safety in sensitive environments.
  • Reliable connectivity for 10GBase-T applications.

Cons

  • Connectors are Cat.6A rated, not Cat.7, which might be a point of confusion.
  • Primarily intended for professional/data center use, may be over-specified for basic home networks.
  • Slightly stiffer due to the extensive shielding compared to unshielded cables.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Connect one RJ45 connector to the network port on your device (e.g., computer, server, switch).
  2. Connect the other RJ45 connector to the corresponding network port on your router, switch, or other network device.
  3. Ensure connectors are securely plugged in. The snagless design helps protect the clip during insertion and removal.

Compatibility:

  • Connectors: Features RJ45 connectors compatible with all standard Ethernet ports.
  • Cable Standard: While the cable itself is Cat.7, the RJ45 connectors are rated for Cat.6A. This configuration is designed to meet the performance requirements of Cat.7 raw cable. It is backward compatible with Cat.6, Cat.5e, and Cat.5 equipment.
  • Speed: Supports up to 10GBase-T.

Care:

  • Avoid tightly bending the cable, especially near the connectors, as this can damage the internal shielding and conductors.
  • Keep the cable away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference if possible, though the shielding provides significant protection.
  • Clean connectors gently with a dry, lint-free cloth if they appear dusty. Avoid using liquids.
  • Store the cable loosely coiled when not in use.
