Netwerkkabel ShiverPeaks BS75230-R 30m Cat5e SF/UTP rood

The ShiverPeaks BS75230-R 30m Cat5e SF/UTP Red is a 30-metre Ethernet patch cable built to Cat5e specifications with SF/UTP shielding and RJ-45 connectors on both ends. It is intended for reliable data transmission in home and office local area networks, supporting typical Cat5e performance for structured cabling. The cable's red jacket provides easy visual identification in multi-cable installations while the shielding reduces electromagnetic interference in environments with moderate electrical noise.

Advantages

This Cat5e SF/UTP cable offers consistent transmission characteristics across its 30 m length and is suitable for 100 Mbps and gigabit-compatible networks where Cat5e is supported. The combination of foil and braided shielding provides improved protection against crosstalk and external interference compared with unshielded cables. RJ-45 terminations on both ends ensure compatibility with standard network equipment and simple plug-and-play installation. The durable outer jacket resists abrasion and handling during installation.

Suitable for

• Wired home networking between router, switch and desktop devices
• Office workstations and patch panel connections in small to medium networks
• Connecting networked printers, NAS drives and media players
• Temporary or permanent structured cabling where colour-coded identification is useful

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat5e
• Length: 30 metres
• Shielding: SF/UTP (foil + braid around overall twisted pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 on both ends
• Conductor type: twisted pair copper
• Colour: red jacket for easy identification
• Suitable for Ethernet up to Cat5e performance (100/1000 Mbps depending on network hardware)

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of your router, switch or modem and the other connector into the target device such as a PC, NAS or network printer. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and reduce stress at connector ends; maintain a gentle bend radius and avoid running parallel to high-voltage power cables to minimise interference. For wall or rack installations, secure the cable with appropriate clips or cable management accessories and test the link with network diagnostics or a cable tester if required.

Recommendations

Use the red cable as part of a colour-coded cabling scheme to simplify troubleshooting and network mapping. For environments with high electromagnetic interference or requirements for higher bandwidth, consider using higher-category shielded cabling such as Cat6a or Cat7. Regularly inspect connectors for damage and replace the cable if the jacket or terminations show wear.
