Product Description
Cat6 SFTP PIMF Patch Cable — Blue, 1m
This is a 1m Cat6 SFTP patch lead built for shielded links between network devices on a job. SFTP with PIMF construction means each twisted pair carries its own foil screen plus an overall shield, cutting interference where the run sits near power cable or dense bundles in a cabinet.
Key specs
- Category: Cat6, rated for Gigabit Ethernet
- Shielding: SFTP, pair-in-metal-foil (PIMF) per pair plus overall shield

On the job
Stranded 26 AWG conductors give this lead the flex needed for patching — moving between switch ports, patch panel to switch, or terminating an IP camera drop into an NVR-side switch, without the stiffness of solid-core cable. It's designed as a patch cable, not a fixed long-run install cable.
The PVC jacket is specified for indoor installations — comms cabinets, racks, server rooms — rather than external runs.
Compatibility
Standard RJ45 termination works across switches, routers, patch panels and NVR/IP camera network ports on any Cat6-rated Gigabit network.
