Networking Cable S/CONN Cat.7 S/FTP 15 m

The ShiverPeaks Networking Cable S/CONN Cat.7 S/FTP 15 m is a shielded Ethernet cable designed for high-speed data transmission and reliable network connections. This Cat.7 cable uses S/FTP (screened foil twisted pair) construction and comes with RJ-45 connectors plated in gold to ensure low contact resistance and consistent signal transfer. At 15 meters length and finished in orange, it suits installations where both performance and cable visibility are required.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding reduces crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference, supporting stable throughput in demanding network environments. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors provide corrosion resistance and improved contact quality for long-term reliability. The Cat.7 specification supports higher frequencies than lower category cables, enabling faster data rates and improved headroom for modern networking equipment. The visible orange jacket aids cable identification and routing in multi-cable installations.

Suitable for

• High-speed wired LAN connections between switches, routers, and servers
• Data centers and rack installations requiring shielded cabling
• Workstations and desktop setups needing a 15 m run
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference (near power lines or industrial equipment)

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.7
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid + individual foil around pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Length: 15 meters
• Jacket color: Orange
• Conductor: stranded or solid conductor suitable for flexible installation (check local installation needs)
• Frequency rating: supports higher frequency operation typical for Cat.7 cabling

How to use

Route the 15 m S/CONN Cat.7 cable between network devices ensuring connectors are fully seated in RJ-45 ports. Avoid sharp bends and maintain bend radius recommended for Ethernet cabling to preserve signal integrity. When installing in areas with EMI sources, ensure the cable shield is properly terminated at least at one end or as required by your grounding scheme. For permanent installations, secure the cable with appropriate clips or ties without compressing the jacket.

Usage recommendations

For best results, pair this Cat.7 S/FTP cable with shielded network equipment or ensure proper grounding of the shield. Use the orange color to mark critical links or to follow site cabling conventions; avoid running parallel to high-voltage power lines when possible and test link performance after installation to verify expected throughput.
