Microconnect SFTP705S networking cable Black 5 m Cat7 S/FTP (S-STP)

The Microconnect SFTP705S RJ-45 Cat7 5 m Black is a 5‑metre S/FTP network cable designed for reliable high‑speed wired connections between network devices such as switches, modems, routers, patch panels and wall outlets. It follows the Cat7 standard with testing up to 600 MHz and uses RJ‑45 connectors that are compatible with Cat6a, Cat6, Cat5e and Cat5 equipment. The cable is shielded to reduce electromagnetic interference and includes a reinforced strain relief on the connector to protect the plug during installation in tight spaces.

Advantages

This Cat7 S/FTP cable provides improved protection against EMI and crosstalk compared with unshielded cables, helping to maintain signal integrity and reduce transmission errors. Although tested to the Cat7 standard (up to 600 MHz), it uses RJ‑45 connectors compatible with Cat6a and lower categories, ensuring backwards compatibility with existing network hardware. The 5 m length and black finish suit both home and small office installations, while the connector strain relief helps prevent damage during routing and installation.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and modems to patch panels or wall outlets
• Home and small office wired networks
• High‑speed Ethernet links where shielding against interference is needed

How to use

Connect one RJ‑45 end of the Microconnect SFTP705S to a network device (for example a router or switch) and the other end to the target device or infrastructure port (patch panel, keystone jack or wall outlet). Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid placing it alongside strong sources of electromagnetic noise where possible. The built‑in strain relief reduces stress on the connector during installation in confined spaces.

Recommendations

For best performance, use the cable within its 5 m length rating, avoid excessive bending at the connector ends, and ensure connectors are fully inserted into RJ‑45 ports. When installing near heavy electrical equipment, keep the cable as far as possible from high‑voltage lines to minimise residual interference.
