Microconnect SFTP7005Y networking cable Yellow 0.5 m Cat7 S/FTP (S-STP)

The Microconnect SFTP7005Y RJ-45 Cat7 0.5 m in yellow is a short patch cable designed for high-speed network connections between devices such as switches, modems and routers or to wall outlets and patch panels. It conforms to Cat7 standards with S/FTP shielding and uses RJ-45 connectors, offering backward compatibility with Cat6a, Cat6, Cat5e and Cat5 systems for home and small office setups.

Advantages

This Cat7 S/FTP cable supports testing up to 600 MHz while using Cat6a-compatible RJ-45 connectors, ensuring reliable data transmission and compatibility with older Ethernet categories. The shielded construction reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, improving signal integrity and lowering error rates. A reinforced strain-relief (snagless) design protects the connector during installation in tight spaces. The compact 0.5 m length and bright yellow color simplify cable management and identification.

Suitable for

• Connecting routers, switches and modems to patch panels or wall jacks
• Short patch connections in home or small office networks
• Network and entertainment equipment interconnection where reduced interference is required

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat7 (tested up to 600 MHz)
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall shield + individually foiled pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Length: 0.5 m
• Colour: Yellow
• Weight: 0.03 kg
• Backward compatibility: Cat6a, Cat6, Cat5e, Cat5

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network device (for example a router or switch) and the other into the target device, patch panel or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the 0.5 m cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive strain; use the built-in snagless boot to protect the plug during installation in confined spaces.

Recommendations

For best performance, use this shielded Cat7 cable in environments subject to electromagnetic interference (near power cables or electronic equipment) and pair it with shielded ports or patch panels where possible. Avoid kinking the cable and maintain minimum bend radius to preserve signal quality.
