The pre-assembled Cat… patch cables with new strain relief are available in various lengths from 0.3 m to 20 m. They are suitable for quick installation of switches and hubs from the Factory Line product range at patch panels or end devices within a cabinet. With their high, consistent cabling quality over both active and passive infrastructure, the halogen-free FL Cat… patch cables meet the requirements of the respective cabling standards and the lead-free criteria according to EU directives. The FL patch cables are characterized by extremely stable and uniform transmission values. This is achieved through the IDC cutting terminal contact, which has a significantly better contact resistance compared to piercing contacts, and the round strain relief that does not alter the cable geometry. A wide range of accessories is available for the FL patch cables. The FL patch cable can be equipped with CCODE elements for better differentiation of network services.
