Netwerkkabel S/CONN 2m RJ45 Cat6 S/FTP grijs

The ShiverPeaks Networking Cable S/CONN 2m RJ45 Cat6 S/FTP Grey is a 2-metre terminated Ethernet cable built to the Cat6 performance standard with S/FTP shielding. It uses a stranded copper conductor pair construction and gold-plated RJ45 connectors to ensure consistent signal transfer and reduced contact resistance. The grey PVC jacket provides basic mechanical protection and a neutral appearance suitable for home, office or data-center patching.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding combines an overall braided shield with individually foil-wrapped pairs to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk in environments with multiple network and power cables. Cat6 specification supports higher bandwidth and improved performance compared with Cat5e for applications up to 1 Gbps and beyond in suitable network setups. Gold-plated contacts improve connector lifetime and contact reliability while the 2 m cable length offers convenient reach for typical desk-to-switch or patch panel connections.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers, laptops or IP devices to switches and routers
• Patching between wall outlets and network equipment in small offices or home networks
• Short runs in server racks or patch panels where shielded cable is preferred
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference (near power lines or dense cabling)

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6
• Shielding: S/FTP (braided overall shield with individually foil-wrapped pairs)
• Length: 2 metres
• Connector type: RJ45, gold-plated contacts
• Jacket material: PVC, grey
• Conductor type: stranded copper pairs
• Typical use: Ethernet networks up to 1 Gbps and suitable for higher bandwidths depending on network hardware

How to use

Insert one RJ45 connector into the network port of your device and the other connector into the switch, router or wall outlet. Ensure connectors click securely into place to confirm a proper physical connection. For shielded installations, verify that both ends of the link and the connected equipment support and are properly grounded for shielded cabling to obtain full EMI protection. Avoid tight bends or kinks in the cable and keep it away from strong sources of interference if possible.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6 S/FTP cable for short to medium patch runs where improved shielding and reliable RJ45 contacts are required. For best performance, pair the cable with compatible shielded modules or ports and maintain proper grounding. Replace the cable if the jacket is damaged or connectors appear loose to maintain signal integrity.
