Microconnect SSTP620O networking cable Orange 20 m Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP)

The Microconnect SSTP620O is a 20 m Cat6 networking cable with S/FTP shielding and RJ-45 connectors on both ends. It supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is tested to the Cat6 standard frequency of 250 MHz. The cable is orange for easy identification and includes latch protection to reduce risk of connector damage during installation in tight spaces.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding provides protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and reduces crosstalk, preserving signal integrity and helping maintain reliable data transmission. Backwards compatibility with Cat5e and Cat5 ensures interoperability with existing network infrastructure. The integrated latch protection helps prevent connector clips from breaking when routing the cable through confined areas.

Suitable for

• Wired local area networks (LAN) in offices and homes
• Connecting switches, modems, routers, patch panels and keystone jacks
• Audio/video and entertainment system connections
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference

How to use

Route the Microconnect SSTP620O between network devices and infrastructure points, inserting the RJ-45 connectors into corresponding ports on switches, routers, modems or patch panels. Ensure the latch clicks into place to secure the connection. Avoid sharp bends and keep the cable away from strong sources of electrical noise when possible to preserve shield effectiveness and prolong cable life.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this S/FTP Cat6 cable for critical links or installations near potential EMI sources. Test connections after installation and follow standard cable management practices: avoid excessive bending, do not exceed recommended pulling force, and terminate or route the cable through appropriate keystone jacks or patch panels.
