Netwerkkabel S/CONN Cat. 5e SF/UTP 1m

The ShiverPeaks Networking Cable S/CONN Cat. 5e SF/UTP 1m is a shielded Cat5e patch cable designed for reliable Ethernet connections. With SF/UTP construction and RJ‑45 connectors at both ends, the cable supports data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s and is intended for short-distance links in office and home networks. The grey jacket provides a neutral appearance while protecting the internal conductors and shielding layers.

Advantages

The SF/UTP design combines an overall foil shield with unshielded twisted pairs to reduce electromagnetic interference while keeping the cable flexible and easy to route. Category 5e specification ensures compatibility with Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet at the specified distances. Factory-terminated RJ‑45 plugs deliver straightforward plug-and-play installation without additional tools when connecting network devices, switches, routers or patch panels.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers in home or small office networks
• Patch panel to switch connections in wiring closets
• Short-run Gigabit Ethernet links where improved shielding is beneficial
• Temporary or permanent connections behind desks and equipment racks

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat 5e
• Shielding: SF/UTP (overall foil shield with unshielded twisted pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 on both ends
• Maximum supported data rate: up to 1000 Mbit/s (Gigabit Ethernet)
• Length: 1 m
• Outer jacket color: grey
• Typical use: Ethernet network patch cable

How to use

Plug one RJ‑45 connector into the Ethernet port of a network device and the other into a router, switch or wall outlet terminated for network access. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a reliable connection. Route the 1 m cable to avoid sharp bends and high‑tension points; maintain a gentle bend radius to preserve performance and shielding integrity.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat5e SF/UTP cable for short horizontal or patch connections in areas with potential electromagnetic interference, such as near power supplies or bundles of unshielded cables. Avoid running the cable parallel and close to high-voltage power lines. For longer runs or higher bandwidth requirements, consider shielded Cat6 solutions or fiber optics depending on your network design.
