Microconnect SFTP715R networking cable Red 15 m Cat7 S/FTP (S-STP)

The Microconnect SFTP715R RJ-45 Cat7 15m is a 15-metre networking cable designed for high-speed wired connections between devices such as switches, modems and routers, or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. The cable meets Cat7 testing up to 600 MHz and uses S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference while employing RJ-45 terminations compatible with Cat6a, Cat6, Cat5e and Cat5 ports. Its red jacket and 15 m length make it suitable for visible runs and longer link requirements in home and small office networks.

Advantages

The cable offers Cat7-class performance tested to 600 MHz combined with S/FTP shielding that protects against EMI and reduces crosstalk, preserving data integrity and transmission speeds. It uses standard RJ-45 connectors manufactured to Cat6a quality for broad backward compatibility with existing hardware. A reinforced connector design with a snagless boot reduces the risk of connector damage during installation in tight spaces. The 15 m length provides flexibility for routing between distant network points.

Suitable for

• Wired connections between switches, routers and modems
• Structured cabling to patch panels, keystone jacks and wall outlets
• Home and small office networks and entertainment systems
• Environments where EMI protection is required

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end of the Microconnect SFTP715R to a network device (for example a switch, router or modem) and the other end to the destination device or wall outlet/patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic fields where possible to preserve shielding effectiveness. The snagless boot helps when pulling the cable through conduits or tight spaces.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable for permanent or semi-permanent links within 15 m and maintain a bend radius according to installation best practices. While the cable is Cat7-tested to 600 MHz, its RJ-45 terminations provide compatibility with Cat6a and earlier standards — verify end-point equipment ratings when planning high-frequency or high-throughput links.
