Networking Cable S/CONN 75712-S Blue 2m Cat6a S/FTP

The ShiverPeaks Networking Cable S/CONN 75712-S Blue 2m Cat6a S/FTP is a 2‑meter Ethernet cable designed to meet Cat6a performance requirements. It uses S/FTP (shielded foiled twisted pair) construction to reduce electromagnetic interference and maintain stable data transfer rates. RJ‑45 plugs with gold plating provide secure connections and improved conductivity. The blue jacket identifies the cable in patch panels or structured cabling systems and suits both residential and office networking environments.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding around each pair and an overall screen improves resistance to crosstalk and external noise, supporting higher frequencies and more reliable throughput. Gold‑plated RJ‑45 contacts help reduce oxidation and maintain low contact resistance over time. The 2 m length offers flexibility for typical desk-to-switch or patch panel connections without excess cable clutter. The cable’s construction is suitable for installations where consistent Cat6a performance is required.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktops, laptops, and networked printers to switches or routers
• Patch panel to switch or wall outlet connections in office racks
• Home networking setups requiring Cat6a speeds and reduced interference
• Temporary or permanent installations where a 2 m cable length is appropriate

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6a — supports higher bandwidth and 10 Gbps over recommended distances
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with individual foil over pairs)
• Connectors: RJ‑45 with gold‑plated contacts for improved conductivity
• Length: 2 meters
• Color: Blue jacket for easy identification

How to use

Plug one RJ‑45 connector into the network device (router, switch or wall outlet) and the other connector into the client device (PC, laptop, printer). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click to establish a secure physical connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and keep it away from strong sources of electrical interference for optimal performance.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use this Cat6a S/FTP cable in environments where shielded cabling is beneficial, such as near electrical equipment or in dense cable bundles. Do not exceed recommended bend radius and avoid repeated plugging cycles to prolong connector life. For permanent installations, verify grounding of shielded systems according to local cabling standards.
