Microconnect SFTP730 Netwerkkabel grijs 30 m Cat7 S/FTP (S-STP)

The Microconnect SFTP730 RJ-45 Cat7 30 m Grey is a shielded network patch cable designed for high-speed wired connections in home and small office environments. Meeting Cat7 performance class testing up to 600 MHz and manufactured with S/FTP shielding, the cable reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk while delivering reliable data transfer. Both ends are fitted with RJ-45 connectors and the 30 m length provides flexibility for linking switches, routers, modems, patch panels or wall outlets across medium distances.

Advantages

This MicroConnect Cat7 cable combines S/FTP shielding with backward compatibility to Cat6a, Cat6, Cat5e and Cat5, allowing use with existing network infrastructures. The cable construction reduces EMI and crosstalk, supporting stable high-speed transmission for networked devices and entertainment systems. The grey PVC jacket offers a discreet appearance for visible runs, and the integrated snagless strain relief helps protect the RJ-45 plug latch during installation in confined spaces.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and modems to patch panels or wall outlets
• Wired home networks and small office LAN installations
• High-bandwidth applications such as streaming, gaming and VoIP
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat7, tested up to 600 MHz
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil shield with individually shielded pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 on both ends (manufactured with Cat6a compatible plugs)
• Length: 30 m
• Colour: Grey
• Typical uses: Patch cable for switches, routers, patch panels and wall outlets

How to use

Route the 30 m cable between network devices or from a device to an infrastructure outlet, avoiding tight bends and sharp edges that could damage the jacket or internal shielding. Insert RJ-45 connectors firmly into the corresponding ports until the latch clicks. For installations through narrow conduits or cable trays, use the snagless strain-relief design to protect the plug latch during pulling. Ensure both ends are connected to matching ports (for example switch to patch panel or router to wall outlet) and verify link/activity LEDs on connected equipment to confirm connectivity.

Recommendations

For best performance, keep the cable separated from high-voltage power lines and large sources of electromagnetic noise. When integrating with existing infrastructure, the Cat7 SFTP cable is backward compatible but will perform according to the lowest category in the link; use Cat7-capable hardware where maximum bandwidth is required. Avoid excessive bending radii and secure the cable with appropriate clips or ties without over-compressing the jacket.
