Networking Cable ShiverPeaks BS75511-0.5-SET5 0.5m Cat7 S/FTP

The ShiverPeaks BS75511-0.5-SET5 0.5m Cat7 S/FTP networking cable is designed for short-distance, high-performance Ethernet connections. With Category 7 specification and S/FTP shielding, this cable provides improved signal integrity and reduced interference compared with lower-category cables. The integrated RJ-45 connectors have gold-plated contacts to ensure reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance during frequent use. The cable's grey jacket delivers a neutral appearance suitable for both residential and professional installations.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding (shielded foil around each pair plus an overall braided shield) reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, supporting stable data transmission in environments with multiple cables or electronic devices. Cat7 design supports higher bandwidths and improved transmission characteristics relative to earlier categories. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts offer better long-term contact reliability and lower contact resistance. The 0.5 m length is practical for connecting devices in compact setups where short patch cables are required.

Suitable for

• Connecting network devices in tight rack or desktop configurations
• Short patch connections between switches, routers, and workstations
• High-speed local data transfers and streaming within small workspaces
• Environments with moderate electromagnetic interference where shielding is beneficial

Key specifications

• Category: Cat7 performance class
• Shielding: S/FTP (individually foil-shielded pairs with overall braided shield)
• Connector type: RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Length: 0.5 m
• Jacket color: grey
• Typical use: Ethernet networking, patching and device interconnects

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of the source device and the other connector into the target device or network port. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Use the 0.5 m length where minimal slack and tidy cable routing are required; avoid sharp bends or kinks near the connector ends. For installations in shielded environments, connect grounding as required by your network setup to maintain shield effectiveness.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat7 S/FTP cable for short, high-speed links inside racks, at desks, or between closely located network equipment. Avoid over-bending the cable and route it separately from large power cables to minimize residual interference. If longer runs are needed, select appropriately rated longer cables to preserve signal integrity.
