Microconnect SSTP60025B netwerkkabel blauw 0,25 m Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP)

The Microconnect SSTP60025B RJ-45 Cat6 0.25 m Blue is a short, shielded Ethernet patch cable for connecting network devices such as switches, routers or patch panels. Meeting Cat6 requirements and tested up to 250 MHz, the cable supports high-speed data transmission and is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 infrastructures. It features RJ-45 connectors on both ends, S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) and a latch protection design to prevent connector damage during tight installations.

Advantages

The shielded S/FTP construction minimizes EMI and crosstalk, maintaining signal integrity for reliable data transfer. Being Cat6-rated and tested up to 250 MHz ensures stable performance for gigabit and higher-speed networks. The short 0.25 m length reduces cable clutter in rack or desktop setups, and the latch protection on the RJ-45 plugs helps avoid accidental damage during installation. The cable is also backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 systems.

Suitable for

• Connecting nearby network equipment (switch to router, patch panel to switch)
• Short patch runs in server racks or desktop setups
• Home and small office network and entertainment connections
• Environments where EMI protection is required

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6, tested up to 250 MHz
• Length: 0.25 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 — both ends
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall shield plus individually shielded pairs)
• Data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s (as stated by manufacturer summary)
• Colour: Blue
• Weight: 0.016 kg

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network ports on your devices (for example, switch to router or patch panel to switch). Ensure the latch clicks into place to secure the connection. Use this 0.25 m patch cable for short runs where devices are close together to keep connections tidy and minimize excess cable length. When routing through confined spaces, the latch protection reduces the risk of connector damage.

Recommendations

Use the Microconnect SSTP60025B for short, high-quality patch connections in environments that benefit from EMI shielding. Avoid stretching the cable or bending it sharply near the connectors; keep bends gentle to preserve performance and longevity.
