Microconnect SSTP601Y networking cable Yellow 1 m Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP)

The Microconnect SSTP601Y S/FTP Cat6 networking cable is a 1 m yellow patch cable that meets the Cat6 standard. It is designed for connecting network devices such as switches, modems and routers to each other or to infrastructure components like patch panels, keystone jacks and wall outlets. The cable supports high data transfer rates and includes S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable is tested up to 250 MHz and is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5. The S/FTP (overall shield with individually foil‑shielded pairs) construction reduces EMI and crosstalk, helping to maintain signal integrity and lower error rates. The connector features latch protection to prevent damage during installation in confined spaces. Its 1 m length and yellow colour improve visibility and ease of routing in racks and workspaces.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and modems in offices and homes
• Patching between wall outlets, patch panels and keystone jacks
• High‑speed Ethernet links up to 10 Gbit/s in short runs
• Environments where EMI reduction is required

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the network device (switch, router or modem) and the other connector into the target port on a patch panel, wall outlet or another device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid tight compression to preserve shielding and performance. For best results in structured cabling, keep runs within recommended length limits for the intended Ethernet speed.

Recommendations

Use this S/FTP Cat6 cable for short to medium length high‑speed links where EMI may affect unshielded cables; avoid using in outdoor or direct burial installations without additional protective conduits.
