Microconnect SSTP605Y networking cable Yellow 5 m Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP)

The Microconnect SSTP605Y S/FTP Cat6 networking cable is a 5 m yellow patch cable designed for reliable wired connections between network devices such as switches, modems, routers, patch panels or wall outlets. It meets Cat6 standard performance (tested up to 250 MHz) and supports data rates up to 10,000 Mbit/s, with S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and maintain signal integrity in home and small office environments.

Advantages

The cable offers Cat6 performance with backward compatibility to Cat5e and Cat5, S/FTP (shielded Foil over Pairs plus overall braid) construction to reduce EMI and crosstalk, and a robust latch protector to prevent RJ45 connector damage during installation in tight spaces. Its 5 m length and bright yellow colour simplify cable management and device identification.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers, modems and patch panels
• Home and small office wired networks
• High-speed Ethernet applications up to Cat6 performance
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the network device (switch, router, modem or wall outlet) and the other end into the target device or patch panel. Ensure connectors click into place via the latch protector. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and keep it separated from strong sources of electromagnetic noise where possible. For permanent installations use appropriate cable management accessories and secure the cable to avoid strain on connectors.

Recommendations

Use this S/FTP Cat6 cable when you need Cat6 performance with shielding in home or small office environments, or when routing cables near potential EMI sources. For runs longer than 5 m, select a longer cable or use patch points and verify installation meets your network performance requirements.
