Netwerkkabel ShiverPeaks 75720-AR CAT 6A S/FTP PIMF

ShiverPeaks 75720-AR CAT 6A S/FTP PIMF network cable is engineered to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet over twisted-pair copper with shielded construction for improved electromagnetic compatibility. The cable uses S/FTP (overall shield with individually shielded pairs) and PIMF (pairs in metal foil) design to reduce alien crosstalk and external interference, providing reliable high-speed links for structured cabling in data centers, server rooms, and office environments. It is halogen-free and intended for permanent links and patching where a shielded category 6A solution is required.

Advantages

The S/FTP PIMF construction combines an overall braid shield with individually foil-shielded pairs to deliver enhanced protection against EMI and near-end crosstalk, supporting consistent performance at frequencies up to 500 MHz. The cable's CAT 6A specification ensures compatibility with 10GBASE-T and other high-bandwidth applications, while halogen-free materials reduce harmful emissions in the event of fire. Its robust shielding and controlled pair geometry contribute to stable signal integrity over typical horizontal and backbone runs.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections in data centers and server rooms
• Shielded office network backbones and horizontal cabling
• Structured cabling installations requiring EMI protection
• Patching between shielded network equipment and outlets

How to use

Install the cable following standard structured cabling practices: route and secure the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress, maintain proper separation from power lines and strong EMI sources, and terminate using compatible shielded connectors and outlets. Ensure that the shield continuity is maintained through correct grounding of connectors and patch panels to preserve the effectiveness of the S/FTP construction. Test installed links with appropriate CAT 6A certification testers to verify insertion loss, return loss, and crosstalk performance.

Recommendations

Use this shielded CAT 6A cable where 10 Gigabit performance and EMI protection are required. For best results, pair the cable with shielded RJ45 connectors, shielded patch panels, and ensure proper grounding practices during installation. Avoid tight bends and excessive pulling forces to maintain cable performance over time.
