Network Cable Sharkoon Sharkoon patch network cable SFTP RJ-45 Cat.7a 2 meters red

The Sharkoon patch network cable SFTP RJ-45 Cat.7a 2 meters red is a shielded Ethernet cable designed for high-speed wired connections. Compliant with Category 7a specifications, this 2 m cable uses S/FTP (shielded foil twisted pair) construction and standard RJ-45 connectors to deliver stable data transfer with reduced electromagnetic interference. Its red jacket provides easy visual identification in crowded cable installations while the robust outer sheath and molded connector ends offer increased mechanical durability.

Advantages

The SFTP shielding minimizes crosstalk and external noise, supporting higher frequencies and reliable throughput for demanding applications. The RJ-45 terminations maintain compatibility with common network devices, and the 2 meter length balances reach and cable management. The cable jacket and strain-relief molded ends increase resistance to wear and maintain connector integrity during repeated plugging and unplugging.

Suitable for

• Gaming PCs and consoles requiring low-latency, stable connections
• Streaming setups where consistent bandwidth is critical
• Office and home networks with multiple wired devices
• Patch panels and network racks needing identifiable cabling

Key specifications

• Category: Cat.7a
• Shielding: S/FTP (shielded foil twisted pair)
• Connector: RJ-45
• Length: 2 meters
• Color: Red
• Construction: Molded connectors with strain relief

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to the network port of your router, switch, modem or network device and the other end to your computer, gaming console or target device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a secure electrical and mechanical connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and pinching; secure with cable ties or organizers compatible with the cable diameter to maintain signal integrity and orderly installation.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable within short-to-medium run lengths typical for desktop or rack environments; avoid running parallel to power cables for extended distances and keep bends above the recommended bend radius to prevent signal degradation. Periodically inspect connectors and the outer jacket for damage, and replace the cable if shielding or connector integrity is compromised.
