Microconnect SSTP603 networking cable Grey 3 m Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP)

The Microconnect SSTP603 S/FTP Cat6 networking cable is a 3 m grey patch cable designed for reliable wired connections between network devices such as switches, modems, routers, patch panels or wall outlets. Built to the Cat6 standard and tested up to 250 MHz, the cable supports high-speed data transmission and is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 installations. The cable features S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and a latch protection on the connector to prevent damage during tight installations.

Advantages

The S/FTP construction provides improved protection against EMI and crosstalk, which helps maintain data integrity and consistent transmission speeds. Tested to Cat6 specifications (up to 250 MHz), the cable supports high bandwidth applications and remains compatible with older Cat5e/Cat5 equipment. Latch protection on the RJ45 connector reduces the risk of connector breakage when routing the cable through confined spaces. The 3 m length and grey colour make it suitable for many small office or home setups while keeping a discreet appearance.

Suitable for

• Connecting routers, modems and switches to patch panels or wall outlets
• Home and small office wired networks
• High-bandwidth internet and streaming connections
• Environments where EMI protection is required

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6 (tested up to 250 MHz)
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall shield + individually shielded pairs)
• Length: 3 m
• Rated data speed: up to 10000 Mbit/s (as per product summary)
• Colour: Grey
• Connector protection: latch protection on RJ45

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the LAN port of your router, switch or modem and the other connector into the target device, patch panel or wall outlet. Ensure connectors click into place to confirm a secure latch. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic noise when possible. For installations through conduits or tight spaces, guide the cable carefully to protect the connector and shielding.

Recommendations

For best performance, use the Microconnect SSTP603 for wired links where EMI may affect signal quality, and keep cable runs within recommended lengths for your network equipment. Avoid excessive bending radii and mechanical stress on the connectors to prolong service life.
