Network cable ShiverPeaks CAT 6 S/FTP PIMF model 08-64025, 4-pair, for Gigabit Ethernet

ShiverPeaks CAT 6 S/FTP PIMF network cable (model 08-64025) is a four-pair Ethernet cable engineered for Gigabit Ethernet installations. The cable features individually foil‑shielded pairs (PIMF) plus an overall braided screen (S/FTP) to reduce alien crosstalk and electromagnetic interference, providing stable high‑speed connections between switches, routers, patch panels and network endpoints in offices and data centers.

Advantages

The S/FTP PIMF construction delivers improved immunity to external electromagnetic interference and reduced pair‑to‑pair crosstalk compared with unshielded alternatives. Designed to meet Cat 6 performance for Gigabit speeds, the cable supports reliable data transfer over typical horizontal runs and structured cabling layouts. Its robust shielding and conductor layout help maintain signal integrity in environments with dense cabling or nearby electrical equipment.

Suitable for

• Gigabit Ethernet connections between switches, routers and patch panels
• Structured cabling in offices, server rooms and data centers
• Environments with elevated electromagnetic interference or dense cable bundles
• Permanent links and horizontal network cabling

Key specifications

• Category: Cat 6, suitable for Gigabit Ethernet
• Conductor pairs: 4 twisted pairs
• Shielding: Pair‑level foil (PIMF) plus overall braid (S/FTP)
• Impedance: 100 Ω (nominal)
• Typical application: structured cabling, horizontal runs

How to use

Install the cable following structured cabling standards for Cat 6 horizontal cabling. Terminate the cable with compatible shielded RJ45 connectors or keystone jacks and ensure the braid is correctly bonded to the system ground to preserve the shield effectiveness. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and excessive pulling force; maintain recommended bend radius and separation from power cabling where possible to minimize interference. Test the installed link with appropriate network cable testers to verify continuity, pair integrity and performance.

Usage recommendations

Choose shielded connectors and ensure proper grounding for the best EMI protection. Use this S/FTP cable in installations where superior noise immunity is required, and verify link performance after installation with Cat 6 certified testing tools.
