Microconnect SFTP70025R networking cable Red 0.25 m Cat7 S/FTP (S-STP)

The Microconnect SFTP70025R RJ-45 Cat7 0.25m Red is a short, shielded network patch cable designed for reliable connections between network devices such as switches, modems and routers, or to infrastructure elements like patch panels, keystone jacks and wall outlets. The cable follows the Cat7 standard with S/FTP shielding, is tested up to 600 MHz and is supplied with RJ-45 Cat6a-compatible connectors. Its 0.25 m length and red colour make it suitable for tidy, color-coded installations in home and small office environments.

Advantages

The SFTP70025R offers improved protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) thanks to its S/FTP shielding, which reduces crosstalk and data errors and helps maintain higher transmission rates. Although manufactured with Cat6a-compatible RJ-45 connectors, the cable is compliant with Cat7 testing up to 600 MHz and remains backwards compatible with Cat6a, Cat6, Cat5e and Cat5 equipment. A molded snagless boot protects the connector latch during installation in confined spaces.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between routers, switches and modems
• Connections to patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets
• Color-coded cabling in home and small office networks
• Applications requiring shielded cables to reduce EMI and crosstalk

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into a network device (for example a switch, router or modem) and the other into the receiving device or infrastructure port (patch panel, keystone jack or wall outlet). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks and avoid sharp bends or strain on the cable to maintain signal integrity. The short 0.25 m length is intended for close-proximity patching and tidy rack or desktop setups.

Recommendations

Use this shielded Cat7 patch cable in environments where EMI may affect network performance, and pair it with properly grounded shielded equipment and patch panels to ensure the shielding is effective. Avoid routing the cable near high-power electrical lines and maintain bend radii recommended for Ethernet cables.
