Networking Cable S/CONN 75712-W 2m Cat6a S/FTP White

The ShiverPeaks Networking Cable S/CONN 75712-W is a 2 m Cat6a S/FTP patch cable designed for high-performance wired networks. It provides shielded twisted-pair construction with overall braid and foil around each pair to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. Equipped with RJ-45 plugs and gold-plated contacts, the cable supports reliable gigabit and multi-gigabit data transfers while maintaining a discreet white aesthetic suitable for visible installations in home or office environments.

Advantages

Shielded S/FTP construction improves signal integrity in environments with potential electromagnetic noise, while Cat6a rating supports higher bandwidth and reduced alien crosstalk compared with lower category cables. Gold-plated contacts on the RJ-45 connectors offer improved corrosion resistance and consistent electrical contact. The 2 m length provides a balance between reach and tidy cable management, and the white jacket integrates well with light-coloured walls, desks, and networking equipment.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktops, laptops or networked devices to switches and routers
• Structured cabling in small offices or home network racks
• High-speed Ethernet applications up to multi-gigabit links where Cat6a performance is required
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference where shielded cable is preferred

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid plus foil around each twisted pair)
• Length: 2 meters
• Connector type: RJ-45 plugs
• Contact plating: Gold-plated contacts
• Colour: White

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of your device and the other into the corresponding port on a switch, router or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and prolonged compression; maintain the bend radius recommended for Cat6a cabling to preserve performance. For permanent installations, use appropriate strain relief and cable management accessories to prevent stress at connector ends.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable within its specified length and category constraints, avoid running it parallel to power lines for extended distances, and terminate shielded connections to properly grounded equipment when integrating with shielded network infrastructure.
