Networking Cable Microconnect SSTP6005S S/FTP Cat6 0.5m Black

MicroConnect SSTP6005S is a shielded S/FTP Cat6 networking cable with a 0.5 m length and black jacket, designed to connect network devices such as switches, modems or routers to each other or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. The cable supports Cat6 specification testing up to 250 MHz and enables data transfer rates up to 10,000 Mbit/s while remaining backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 installations. It features latch protection on the RJ45 connector and overall shielding to reduce interference.

Advantages

The S/FTP (S-STP) construction provides enhanced protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk compared with unshielded cables, helping to maintain signal integrity and lower error rates. Latch protection reduces the risk of connector damage during installation in tight spaces. Short 0.5 m length is convenient for connecting devices in rack-mounted or desktop setups without excess cable clutter.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and modems to patch panels or wall outlets
• Short interconnects in server racks and network closets
• Small office and home network or entertainment device connections

Key specifications

• Maximum supported data rate: up to 10,000 Mbit/s
• Length: 0.5 m
• Colour: Black
• MPN: SSTP6005S
• EAN: 5704327712978

How to use

Insert the RJ45 connector into the corresponding port on your device until the latch clicks into place, and connect the other end to the target device, patch panel or wall outlet. Route the 0.5 m cable so it is not sharply bent and avoid pinching the connector or cable jacket. For installations where shielding is important, ensure that connected equipment and patch panels support shielded connections and that shields are properly terminated to ground where required.

Usage recommendations

Use this S/FTP Cat6 cable for short, high-performance links where EMI protection is needed; avoid excessive bending and ensure proper grounding of the shielded connections for best performance.
