Microconnect SSTP620 networking cable Grey 20 m Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP)

MicroConnect SSTP620 S/FTP Cat6 networking cable, 20 m, grey. This shielded Cat6 cable supports tested frequencies up to 250 MHz and is suitable for connecting switches, modems, routers, patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. The cable is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 and is designed for small office, home network and entertainment applications. It features a protective boot (snagless) to reduce connector damage during installation and S/FTP shielding to protect against electromagnetic interference (EMI).

Advantages

The S/FTP construction reduces crosstalk and external interference for more stable data transmission. Tested to Cat6 standards (up to 250 MHz) and backwards compatible with Cat5e/Cat5, the cable supports high-speed transfers up to the product-rated network speeds. A snagless boot protects the RJ45 connector during tight installations and the 20 m length provides extended reach without additional couplers.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and modems to patch panels or wall outlets
• Small office and home network installations
• Streaming and entertainment systems requiring stable wired connections
• Environments where EMI reduction is needed (shielded connections)

How to use

Route the cable between network devices or from a device to a wall outlet/patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted into RJ45 ports until the latch clicks. Use cable management (clips or ties) to avoid sharp bends; maintain bend radius recommended for Ethernet cabling. For permanent installations, test each run with a network cable tester to verify continuity and shielding integrity.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable parallel and close to high-voltage power lines or large electrical equipment. Use the shielded connection when installing in environments with potential EMI sources, and verify installation with a certifying tester when used in commercial deployments.
