Netwerkkabel Sharkoon Patch SFTP RJ-45 Cat.7a 10 m rood

The Sharkoon Patch SFTP RJ-45 Cat.7a 10m Red network cable is a high-performance Ethernet cable designed for stable wired connections in home and office networks. It features SFTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference, molded RJ-45 connectors for secure plug-in reliability, and conforms to Category 7a specifications to support high data rates. The 10-meter length provides flexible placement between devices while the red jacket aids visual identification in cable bundles.

Advantages

This cable combines SFTP construction—an overall foil shield plus individual pair shielding—with robust RJ-45 terminations to ensure low crosstalk and improved signal integrity over longer runs compared to lower-category cables. The Cat.7a specification allows for higher bandwidth and is suitable for demanding network applications. The molded connector ends increase mechanical durability and reduce strain on the connector contact area, while the colored outer sheath simplifies cable management and troubleshooting.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers, and patch panels in structured cabling
• High-speed LAN connections for desktops, servers, and NAS devices
• Home and office network installations requiring interference-resistant cabling
• Audio/video distribution where stable Ethernet transport is needed

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat.7a (augmented performance class)
• Shielding: SFTP (overall foil shield + individually shielded pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45, gold-plated contacts
• Length: 10 meters
• Outer jacket color: Red
• Conductor type: stranded or solid copper conductors depending on installation flexibility (verify before permanent installation)
• Typical supported bandwidth: up to frequencies defined by Cat.7a standards for high-throughput applications

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (router, switch, PC, or patch panel) and the other end to the corresponding port on the remote device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference; maintain gentle bend radii near connectors. For wall-mounted or permanent installations, confirm conductor type (stranded for flexible runs, solid for permanent in-wall terminations) and, if necessary, use appropriate keystone jacks or patch panels compatible with Cat.7a wiring.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid tightly coiling the cable and keep it separated from power lines and heavy electrical equipment. Use labeled cable management solutions to identify the red cable in multi-cable setups. When terminating into panels or jacks, follow standard T568A or T568B wiring schemes consistently across the installation.
