Microconnect SSTP650Y networking cable Yellow 50 m Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP)

The Microconnect SSTP650Y S/FTP Cat6 networking cable is a 50 m yellow cable designed for reliable connections between network devices such as switches, modems and routers, or to infrastructure components like patch panels, keystone jacks and wall outlets. It is a shielded Cat6a-compatible cable tested to 500 MHz and supports data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s while remaining backwards compatible with Cat6, Cat5e and Cat5 installations. The cable includes latch protection to reduce risk of connector damage during installations in confined spaces and S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding improves signal integrity by protecting against EMI and reducing crosstalk, which helps maintain higher data transmission quality and lower error rates. A 50 m length provides flexibility for office or home network layouts, while the yellow colour simplifies identification and cable management. Latch protection on the RJ45 connector prevents accidental damage during tight installations.

Suitable for

• Wired connections between switches, routers and modems
• Patch panel and keystone jack terminations
• Home networks and small office LANs
• Audio/video and entertainment system wiring requiring stable connections

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6a compatible, tested to 500 MHz
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall shield + individually shielded pairs)
• Length: 50 m
• Rated data speed: up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Colour: Yellow
• Weight: 1.55 kg

How to use

Route the Microconnect SSTP650Y cable between network devices or to termination points such as patch panels or wall outlets. Ensure proper strain relief and avoid sharp bends near the connector to maintain signal performance. Connect RJ45 plugs to compatible ports and verify link status on network equipment. For best results terminate or patch through compatible shielded panels or jacks that maintain the cable’s shielding continuity.

Recommendations

Use shielded connectors and grounded panels when deploying the S/FTP cable in environments with high electromagnetic interference. Avoid kinking the cable and keep separation from power lines where possible to preserve performance and reduce error rates.
