ShiverPeaks FL31-28155 Cat6a S/FTP Networking Cable, 1.5 m, RJ-45, Black

The ShiverPeaks Cat6a S/FTP networking cable is a high-performance solution designed for demanding network environments that require stable and fast data transmission. With a length of 1.5 meters, this patch cable is engineered to support data transfer rates of up to 10 Gbit/s, making it fully compatible with 10GBase-T standards. The cable features advanced S/FTP shielding, which effectively protects the signal from electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, ensuring consistent performance in both professional office setups and home multimedia networks.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this cable lies in its robust construction and high-quality materials. The S/FTP shielding provides superior protection against external interference, which is essential for maintaining signal integrity in environments with multiple electronic devices. Furthermore, the gold-plated RJ-45 connectors offer excellent conductivity and resistance to corrosion, ensuring a reliable physical connection over time. Its flexible design allows for easy routing in tight spaces, while the 1.5-meter length is ideal for connecting devices located in close proximity, such as a router to a switch or a computer to a wall outlet.

Suitable for

• Connecting high-speed network switches and routers
• Linking desktop computers or gaming consoles to local area networks
• Professional office environments requiring stable 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Home media centers and high-bandwidth streaming setups

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not intended for long-distance outdoor installations or environments where it will be exposed to extreme weather conditions or direct sunlight. Additionally, if you require a connection distance significantly greater than 1.5 meters, this specific cable length will not be sufficient for your needs.

Key specifications

• Length: 1.5 meters
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Cable standard: Cat6a
• Shielding: S/FTP (S-STP)
• Maximum data rate: 10 Gbit/s
• Contact plating: Gold
• Color: Black

How to use

To use the cable, simply insert one of the RJ-45 connectors into the network port of your primary device, such as a router or modem. Insert the second connector into the network port of your target device, such as a computer, printer, or network switch. The cable is designed for plug-and-play functionality, meaning no additional software or configuration is required for it to begin transmitting data immediately upon connection.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure that your network hardware supports Cat6a or higher standards to take full advantage of the 10 Gbit/s speed.
• Measure the required distance between your devices to confirm that 1.5 meters is sufficient for your setup.
• Check that your devices utilize standard RJ-45 ports.

Usage recommendations: To maintain optimal signal quality, avoid bending the cable at sharp angles or placing heavy objects on top of it. Ensure the connectors are fully inserted until you hear a click to guarantee a secure and stable connection.
