Network Cable ShiverPeaks 75713-AY CAT 6A S/FTP PIMF, 4-pair, shielded twisted pair

ShiverPeaks 75713-AY CAT 6A S/FTP PIMF network cable is designed for high-speed Ethernet and robust data transmission in commercial and industrial environments. The cable features four individually shielded twisted pairs with an overall shield to minimize alien crosstalk and electromagnetic interference, supporting 10 Gigabit Ethernet over standard installation lengths. Constructed to meet Category 6A performance, this shielded cable is suitable for structured cabling, server rooms and high-density network deployments.

Advantages

The combination of pair-wise foil shielding and an overall braid provides enhanced protection against external interference while maintaining consistent signal integrity at higher frequencies. The cable's halogen-free jacket reduces toxic emissions in the event of fire, and its construction supports reliable performance for 10 Gbps links and improved NEXT and FEXT margins compared with unshielded alternatives. The cable is compatible with standard RJ45 termination practices for CAT6A installations.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet backbones and horizontal runs
• Data centres and server rack connections
• Structured cabling in office and industrial environments
• Environments with elevated electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Category: CAT 6A performance for 10 Gbps Ethernet
• Construction: 4 shielded twisted pairs (pair individually foil-shielded) with overall shield
• Shielding type: S/FTP (overall screen with individually foil-wrapped pairs)
• Conductor: multi-strand or solid copper cores (suitable for standard Ethernet terminations)
• Jacket: halogen-free outer sheath for reduced smoke and toxic emissions
• Color: yellow (for easy identification in cable bundles)

How to use

Install the cable following standard structured cabling practices: route the cable through pathways and trays with appropriate bend radius and support to avoid mechanical stress. Terminate with CAT6A-compatible shielded RJ45 connectors and ensure the overall shield is properly grounded at patch panels or outlet plates to preserve shielding effectiveness. Test each link after installation using industry-standard cable testers to verify performance parameters such as insertion loss and near-end crosstalk.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines and maintain separation from sources of electromagnetic interference. Use shielded connectors and grounded panels when installing S/FTP cables, and perform certification testing for each link to confirm compliance with CAT6A specifications.
