Microconnect SSTP601B networking cable Blue 1 m Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP)

The Microconnect SSTP601B RJ45 Cat6 1 m Blue is a 1-metre S/FTP Cat6 networking cable designed for reliable connections between network devices such as switches, modems, routers, patch panels or wall outlets. Manufactured with shielding and tested to the Cat6 standard (up to 250 MHz), it is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 and supports high-speed data transfer up to 10000 Mbit/s. The cable includes a protective boot (snaggle) to reduce strain and protect the connector during installation in tight spaces.

Advantages

The shielded S/FTP construction protects against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and reduces crosstalk, helping maintain signal integrity and lower error rates. Cat6 specification testing to 250 MHz ensures performance suitable for demanding home and small office networks and entertainment applications. The integrated boot prevents damage to the RJ45 connector during installation, and the blue color and 1 m length make it easy to identify and route in patching and short-link scenarios.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers, modems and patch panels
• Home and small office Ethernet installations
• Short patch connections in server rooms or network cabinets
• Applications requiring shielded cabling to reduce EMI

How to use

Connect one RJ45 end to your network device (switch, router or modem) and the other end to the target device, patch panel or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until they click and avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable to maintain performance. For installations in confined spaces, use the integrated boot to guide the connector and reduce strain during routing.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable parallel and close to power lines or sources of electromagnetic interference; if necessary, increase separation or use grounded shielding in the installation. Use the 1 m cable for short links and patching where a shielded Cat6 connection is required.
