Microconnect SSTP60025S networking cable Black 0.25 m Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP)

The Microconnect SSTP60025S RJ-45 Cat6 networking cable (0.25 m, black) provides a short, reliable connection between network devices such as switches, modems, routers or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. This Cat6 cable is rated and tested to 250 MHz and supports data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s. It features S/FTP (SSTP) shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and a latch protection design to prevent connector damage during installations with limited space.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable offers backward compatibility with Cat5e and Cat5 networks while delivering the Cat6 standard performance. The S/FTP shielding minimizes EMI and crosstalk, helping to preserve signal integrity and reduce transmission errors. The integrated latch protection protects the RJ-45 clip from bending or breaking during installation. Its compact 0.25 m length is suitable for short runs and tidy cable management in dense setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers, and modems in small office and home networks
• Patching between devices and a nearby patch panel or keystone jack
• Short, high-speed links in rack or desktop installations

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6 (tested up to 250 MHz)
• Shielding: S/FTP (SSTP) for protection against EMI and crosstalk
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with latch protection
• Length: 0.25 m
• Maximum data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s (per product summary)
• Colour: Black
• Weight: 0.04 kg

How to use

Insert one RJ-45 connector into the network device (switch, router, modem) and the other connector into the destination port such as a patch panel, keystone jack or wall outlet. Ensure connectors click into place and that the latch protection is not forced or bent during routing through tight spaces. For optimal performance, avoid sharp bends and keep the cable away from strong sources of interference when possible.

Recommendations

Use this short Microconnect SSTP60025S Cat6 cable for close-proximity connections where a reliable, shielded link is required; choose longer Cat6 cables for runs that exceed 0.25 m to maintain proper installation practices and signal quality.
