Networking Cable S/CONN 75715 Grey 5m Cat6a S/FTP

The ShiverPeaks Networking Cable S/CONN 75715 Grey 5m Cat6a S/FTP is a 5-meter Ethernet patch cable designed to meet Cat6a performance requirements. It features S/FTP (shielded foiled twisted pair) construction to reduce electromagnetic interference and maintain stable high-speed connections. Each end is fitted with an RJ-45 connector with gold-plated contacts for reliable signal transfer and corrosion resistance. The grey jacket provides a neutral appearance suitable for home, office, and data center installations.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding and twisted-pair design improve resistance to crosstalk and external noise, supporting consistent throughput for demanding network applications. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts enhance contact durability and electrical conductivity. A 5-meter length offers flexibility for typical desk-to-switch or patch-panel connections without excess cable management. The cable conforms to Cat6a electrical parameters to support higher frequencies and next-generation Ethernet standards.

Suitable for

• Wired connections between PCs, switches, routers and patch panels
• High-bandwidth applications such as video streaming and large file transfers
• Office and home network setups requiring shielded cabling
• Structured cabling runs where reduced interference is needed

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with individual foil around pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 on both ends
• Contact plating: Gold-plated contacts
• Length: 5 meters
• Jacket color: Grey

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network ports on your devices, ensuring a firm click for a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference such as large motors or fluorescent lighting. For best performance, maintain proper cable bend radius and avoid kinking. If connecting through patch panels or keystone jacks, align the connectors before insertion to prevent contact damage.

Usage recommendations

Use this Cat6a S/FTP cable for applications that require stable, high-speed wired networking. For installations in electrically noisy environments or where maximum signal integrity is needed, pair shielded patch cables with properly grounded shielded network components. Store unused cable coiled loosely and avoid sharp folds to preserve shielding and conductor integrity.
