Network patch cable ShiverPeaks Cat 7 U/UTP RJ45 model 08-35036

ShiverPeaks Cat 7 U/UTP RJ45 patch cable (model 08-35036) is a Category 7 network cable with U/UTP construction and RJ45 connectors, supplied in white and 2 m length. It is designed for high-speed Ethernet links in professional LAN environments and is suitable for backbone runs, connections between switches, patch panels and workstation links where Cat 7 performance is required.

Advantages

The cable provides Cat 7 performance with U/UTP construction, supporting high data rates and improved signal integrity compared with lower-category cables. RJ45 connectors ensure compatibility with standard network ports while the 2 m length suits rack-to-desk and short interconnects. The white jacket offers a neutral appearance for visible installations.

Suitable for

• Backbone and horizontal links in professional LANs
• Connections between switches, patch panels and wall outlets
• Workstation and desk-level network connections up to 2 m

When it may not be suitable

This U/UTP Cat 7 cable lacks individual pair shielding, so in environments with very high electromagnetic interference (near heavy machinery or unshielded power lines) a fully shielded cable (S/FTP or F/FTP) may be preferable. It is also limited to a fixed 2 m length and therefore not suitable where longer permanent runs are required without additional cables or joins.

Key specifications

• Category: Cat 7
• Construction: U/UTP (unshielded twisted pairs, overall jacket)
• Connector type: RJ45 plugs on both ends
• Colour: White
• Length: 2 m

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the network port of a switch, patch panel or wall outlet and the other connector into the target device such as a workstation or another network device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click to establish a reliable mechanical and electrical connection. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and sources of strong interference; secure with cable ties or management panels as needed.

What to consider before purchase

• Required cable length and whether 2 m is sufficient for your installation
• Environmental electromagnetic conditions—consider shielded designs if interference is expected
• Compatibility with existing RJ45 ports and desired data transmission category (Cat 7)

Usage recommendations

For best performance, use this Cat 7 U/UTP patch cable for short fixed links between rack equipment, patch panels and desktop devices; avoid running it parallel to high-voltage power lines and maintain gentle bend radii to preserve signal quality.
