Microconnect STP507G networking cable Green 7 m Cat5e F/UTP (FTP)

The Microconnect STP507G Green Cat5e 7 m F/UTP is a 7-metre networking cable that supports Cat5e performance and data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s when used in appropriate network setups. The cable is manufactured with F/UTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) and features a latch protection on the connector to prevent damage during installation in tight spaces. It is backward compatible with Cat5 and tested to Cat5e standard (up to 100 MHz).

Advantages

The F/UTP shielding reduces EMI and crosstalk, helping to maintain stable data transmission and lower error rates. Latch protection on the RJ45 connector prevents accidental damage during installation. Available in green, the cable can be used where colour-coding is needed for organisation. Tested to the Cat5e standard and backward compatible with Cat5, it is suitable for many small office and home network applications.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers, modems and patch panels
• Small office and home network links
• Connections to keystone jacks and wall outlets
• Audio/video and entertainment equipment requiring wired Ethernet

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat5e (tested up to 100 MHz)
• Shielding: F/UTP (foil-shielded pairs, unshielded overall)
• Length: 7 m
• Maximum data rate: up to 1000 Mbit/s (depending on network equipment)
• Colour: Green
• Connector protection: latch-protected RJ45

How to use

Connect one RJ45 connector to your network device (switch, router, modem) and the other to the destination device or wall outlet/patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and keep it separated from high-power electrical cables to minimise interference.

Recommendations

Use the Microconnect STP507G for copper Ethernet runs within typical Cat5e distance limits. For best performance, pair the cable with properly rated network hardware and avoid running it parallel to mains power lines; verify cable length and network configuration to achieve desired data rates.
