Netwerkkabel S/CONN Cat. 7 S/FTP 5 m

The ShiverPeaks Networking Cable S/CONN Cat. 7 S/FTP 5 m is a shielded Ethernet patch cable designed for high-speed data transmission and stable network connections. With a 5 meter length and S/FTP (screened foil twisted pair) construction, this cable reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, making it suitable for demanding LAN, server room, and professional AV installations. The RJ-45 connectors feature gold-plated contacts to improve conductivity and resist wear, while the bright yellow jacket provides clear visual identification in cabling bundles and racks.

Advantages

The S/CONN Cat. 7 S/FTP cable provides improved noise immunity thanks to its overall braid and individual foil shielding, resulting in more reliable signal integrity over longer runs compared with unshielded alternatives. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure low contact resistance and longer service life. The 5 m length offers flexibility for typical desktop, wall-to-equipment, and short rack connections, and the yellow jacket aids quick recognition during installation or maintenance.

Suitable for

• High-speed Ethernet networks (10/100/1000 Mbps and higher where Cat 7 is supported)
• Server rooms and rack-mounted equipment connections
• Professional AV systems and studio networking
• Office and home LAN cabling where interference protection is required
• Temporary setups or installations needing visually distinct cabling

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat. 7 with S/FTP shielding (screened foil twisted pair)
• Length: 5 metres
• Connectors: RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Jacket colour: bright yellow for easy identification
• Conductor type: twisted pairs (pair-wise shielding plus overall braid)

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to your network device (switch, router, network interface) and the other plug to the corresponding port on the destination device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. For shielded performance, verify that connected equipment or patch panels support grounding of shielded cables; proper grounding can be provided via shielded patch panels or chassis connections. Avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling during routing to maintain cable integrity and consistent performance.

Recommendations

Use the cable in environments where electromagnetic interference may affect network performance and when a clearly visible cable colour is beneficial for installation and troubleshooting. For optimal performance in shielded networks, connect shields to grounded metal chassis or panels and avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines.
