Microconnect SSTP60025T networking cable Transparent 0.25 m Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP)

The Microconnect SSTP60025T RJ-45 Cat6 0.25 m Transparent is a short, shielded Ethernet patch cable for connecting network devices such as switches, modems or routers to each other or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. This Cat6 cable is rated and tested up to 250 MHz and is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5. The transparent jacket and RJ-45 connectors make it suitable for compact installations where a short connection is required.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and limits crosstalk, which helps maintain data integrity and stable transmission rates. The cable includes latch protection on the RJ-45 connectors to prevent damage to the clip when routing the cable through tight spaces. Its short 0.25 m length minimizes clutter and signal loss for nearby device connections while the Cat6 specification ensures improved performance compared with lower categories.

Suitable for

• Connecting a router or switch to a nearby modem or patch panel
• Short links between network devices in small office or home setups
• Wall outlet to device connections where a compact cable is preferred
• Environments requiring reduced EMI and improved signal quality

Key specifications

• Model: Microconnect SSTP60025T
• Category: Cat6 (tested to 250 MHz)
• Length: 0.25 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall shield with individually shielded pairs)
• Color: Transparent
• Backwards compatible: Cat5e, Cat5

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network device (for example a router, switch or modem) and the other connector into the target device, patch panel or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch engages. Use the short 0.25 m length for direct, close-range connections to avoid excess cable slack and to maintain tidy installations.

Recommendations

Do not bend the cable sharply near the connectors and avoid placing heavy objects on it. For installations where EMI is a concern, ensure proper grounding of connected equipment and maintain separation from strong electrical noise sources for optimal performance.
