The cable sheath is halogen-free and flame-retardant. The copper wires are shielded in pairs, and the overall shield is made of copper braid. The shielded RJ45 connectors are equipped with a molded, slim strain relief and latch protection. These connection cables are ideal for increased bandwidth requirements of 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T) and distances of up to 100 meters.
