Network Cable Sharkoon Patch SFTP RJ-45 Cat.7a 1m Green

The Sharkoon Patch SFTP RJ-45 Cat.7a 1m Green network cable is a shielded Ethernet cable designed for high-speed wired connections in home and professional networks. It implements SFTP (shielded foil twisted pair) construction with RJ-45 connectors and conforms to the Cat.7a transmission standard. At 1 metre length and a green jacket, the cable provides a compact, visible connection option for switches, routers, patch panels and networked devices where reduced interference and stable throughput are needed.

Advantages

This SFTP Cat.7a cable offers enhanced protection against electromagnetic interference thanks to its combined foil and braid shielding around the twisted pairs. The RJ-45 connectors deliver compatibility with standard Ethernet ports while supporting higher bandwidths associated with Cat.7a cabling. A short 1 m length reduces signal attenuation for close-proximity connections and the robust outer jacket provides mechanical protection. The green colour makes cable routing and identification straightforward in multi-cable environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, consoles and gaming setups to routers or switches
• Patch panel to switch or wall outlet connections in small network racks
• Streaming and video conferencing where stable wired throughput is required
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference that require shielded cabling

Key specifications

• Cable type: SFTP (shielded foil with braided shield)
• Connector type: RJ-45 on both ends
• Category: Cat.7a
• Length: 1 metre
• Conductor: twisted pairs (copper conductors)
• Jacket colour: green
• Use case: horizontal patching and short link connections

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port until the latch clicks to ensure a secure connection. Use the 1 m cable to link devices within close proximity such as a desktop to a nearby switch or router. Avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling on the cable; maintain gentle curves to preserve internal pair geometry and shielding effectiveness. For rack installations, use cable management clips or Velcro straps to keep the cable routed cleanly and to prevent strain at connector ends.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use this Cat.7a SFTP cable for short, shielded connections where minimizing interference is important. Ensure both connected devices support the required Ethernet speeds and maintain secure, strain-free routing. Store the cable in a dry environment and avoid exposing the connectors to contaminants when not in use.
