Helos CAT6 PiMF SFTP 25m networking cable Grey S/FTP

The Helos CAT6 PiMF SFTP 25m networking cable Grey S/FTP is a 25-metre Ethernet cable designed for reliable high-speed data transmission in home and office networks. The cable uses CAT6 performance class and an S/FTP (screened foil twisted pair) construction with pair-in-metallic-foil (PiMF) shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. Both ends are fitted with standard RJ-45 connectors and the grey outer jacket provides a neutral appearance for professional installations.

Advantages

The screened S/FTP design with PiMF improves signal integrity by shielding each twisted pair as well as the overall cable, which helps maintain stable Gigabit data rates over typical 25 m runs. The CAT6 specification supports higher bandwidths and better attenuation characteristics compared with lower category cables. Fitted RJ-45 connectors ensure compatibility with common switches, routers and network devices, while the 25 m length allows flexible routing between distant network points without the need for extensions.

Suitable for

• Wired Gigabit Ethernet connections in home or small office networks
• Connecting routers, switches, NAS devices and desktop computers
• Structured cabling runs where EMI reduction is required
• Temporary or permanent installations requiring a 25 m cable length

Key specifications

• Cable category: CAT6
• Shielding type: S/FTP with PiMF (screened overall + foil around each pair)
• Length: 25 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Colour: Grey

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to your network device (router, switch, or network card) and the other connector to the destination device. Ensure connectors click into place to confirm a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends, tight loops or sources of strong electromagnetic interference; secure the cable with cable ties or clips as needed. For best performance, avoid running the cable in parallel with mains power lines over long distances.

Recommendations

For consistent Gigabit performance, test network link speed after installation and replace connectors or patch panels showing visible damage. When installing in environments with high electromagnetic interference, use the shield termination on properly grounded equipment to make the most of the S/FTP shielding.
