Networking cable Microconnect SSTP605W S/FTP Cat6 5 m White

The Microconnect SSTP605W S/FTP Cat6 networking cable is a 5 m white cable designed for reliable wired connections between devices such as switches, modems, routers and the broader network infrastructure via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. The cable supports Cat6 performance up to 250 MHz and is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5. It features S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and a latch protection on the RJ45 connector to prevent damage during installation in tight spaces.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding provides protection against EMI and reduces crosstalk, helping maintain data integrity and stable transmission rates. Cat6 specification certified up to 250 MHz enables high-speed networking up to the supported standards and compatibility with existing Cat5e/Cat5 installations. The integrated latch protection prevents connector breakage during routing through confined installations. The 5 m length and white finish suit typical home and small office deployments.

Suitable for

• Connecting routers, modems and switches to patch panels or wall outlets
• Home and small office wired networks
• High-speed internet and multimedia streaming setups
• Installations where EMI reduction is required

How to use

Connect one end of the Microconnect SSTP605W cable to the RJ45 port of your network device (router, switch or modem) and the other end to the destination port such as a patch panel, keystone jack or wall outlet. Ensure the latch engages fully to secure the connection. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and strong electromagnetic sources where possible to preserve shielding effectiveness and signal quality.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, keep cable runs within recommended lengths for structured cabling, avoid tight bends and proximity to high-power electrical equipment, and verify connectors are fully latched. Use S/FTP Cat6 cabling where EMI or crosstalk could affect critical data transmission.
