Network Cable Digitus CAT 7A S/FTP installation cable 500 m Yellow

The Digitus CAT 7A S/FTP installation cable (500 m, yellow) is a high-performance network cable engineered for structured cabling in data centers and buildings. It supports 10 GBit Ethernet and a transmission frequency up to 1250 MHz, offers S/FTP shielding with individually foil-wrapped pairs and an overall tinned-copper braid, and is suitable for both analog and digital data transmission. The cable is designed to comply with standards such as ISO/IEC 11801, DIN EN 50288-4-1, DIN EN 50173, IEC 61156-7 and EN 50288-9-1, and comes without pre-attached connectors for installation use.

Advantages

The CAT 7A S/FTP construction provides enhanced protection against electromagnetic interference, resulting in stable signal integrity and low crosstalk. With support for PoE and PoE+ power delivery and certification for permanent link installation, the cable meets high safety and performance requirements. The yellow jacket facilitates easy identification in installation environments, while compliance with multiple international standards ensures suitability for professional structured cabling projects.

How to use

Install the Digitus CAT 7A S/FTP cable as part of a structured cabling system by routing it through cable trays, conduits or installation pathways appropriate for permanent links. Terminate the cable ends with compatible Cat7a/8 connectors or patch panels according to the chosen installation standard; follow correct pair identification and shielding termination practices to preserve the S/FTP performance. Ensure proper bending radii and avoid mechanical stress during installation to maintain electrical characteristics.

Recommendations

For best performance, use the cable for permanent link installations with professional termination and testing equipment. Adhere to local fire and building codes when installing and consider separate routing from high-power electrical lines to minimize interference.
