Verkkokaapeli S/CONN Cat. 7 S/FTP 2 m

The ShiverPeaks Networking Cable S/CONN Cat. 7 S/FTP 2 m is a 2-metre data cable designed for high-speed wired networks. It features S/FTP shielding and RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts to maintain signal integrity and reduce interference. The cable's grey jacket provides a neutral, professional appearance suitable for home and office installations and structured cabling systems.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding combines an overall braid with individually foil-shielded pairs to minimise crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference, improving data transmission stability. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts offer reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance for consistent connection quality over time. The Cat. 7 specification supports higher bandwidths and improved performance compared with earlier categories, while the 2 m length provides flexibility for common desktop and rack connections without excess cable slack.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktops, switches and routers within small office or home networks
• Short-run connections in server racks and structured cabling panels
• High-bandwidth applications such as streaming, video conferencing and large file transfers
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference where shielded cables are preferred

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat. 7 (Class F performance)
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid + individually foil-shielded pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Length: 2 metres
• Jacket colour: Grey
• Conductor type: Twisted pair copper conductors
• Intended use: Ethernet networks supporting high data rates

How to use

Ensure both network devices are powered off or that hot-plugging is supported by your equipment. Insert the RJ-45 connector into the corresponding port until the retention clip clicks into place. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and sharp edges; maintain a minimum bend radius as specified by your installation standards to preserve shielding and conductor integrity. If connecting within a rack or conduit, secure the cable to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

For best results, use this Cat. 7 S/FTP cable in shielded installations or where EMI/RFI may affect network performance. Test connections after installation using network diagnostic tools to verify link speed and signal quality. Avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines and replace the cable if connectors or jacket show visible wear.
