Secomp VALUE S/FTP Patch Cord Cat.7, 5 m, grey, RJ-45–RJ-45

Secomp VALUE S/FTP Patch Cord Cat.7, 5 m, grey, RJ-45–RJ-45 is a shielded Ethernet patch cable designed for high-performance local area networks. The cable uses S/FTP (overall braid with foil-shielded pairs) construction and meets Cat7 electrical characteristics up to 500 MHz, providing stable transmission for connections between switches, routers, patch panels and other network devices. Both ends terminate with RJ-45 male connectors and the cable is fitted with moulded kink protection and flexible jacketing for reliable installation in office and data centre environments.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk through individual pair foil shielding plus an overall braided shield, improving signal integrity in dense cabling environments. Cat7 performance supports higher frequency transmission up to 500 MHz for applications that demand low latency and consistent throughput. Durable moulded connectors with kink protection and a flexible sheath make the cable suitable for routing through trays, racks and cable management systems while maintaining mechanical reliability.

Suitable for

• Short- to medium-length links between switches, routers and patch panels in offices and server rooms
• Connections to network devices requiring shielded cabling to reduce interference
• Wiring runs where flexibility and kink protection are needed for tight bends and cable management

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of a switch, router, patch panel or device and the other RJ-45 connector into the corresponding port of the remote device. Ensure connectors are fully seated and that the cable is routed to avoid sharp edges or excessive tension. For best performance, avoid running the cable in close parallel with sources of strong electromagnetic interference and maintain proper cable management in racks and cable trays.

Usage recommendations

Use this Cat7 S/FTP cable in environments where shielded cabling is required or preferred, and pair it with properly grounded equipment and shielded patch panels to ensure the shielding is effective. For permanent horizontal installations, consider verifying channel components and distances to meet system-level specifications.
