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 designed for structured cabling in commercial and industrial environments. It supports data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and uses S/FTP shielding (overall foil with individually shielded pairs) to reduce electromagnetic interference and maintain signal integrity over long runs. Supplied in a 500 m reel and finished in yellow, this simplex cable is intended for permanent installation where clear identification and robust performance are required.

Advantages

This Cat.7A S/FTP cable provides enhanced noise immunity thanks to its individually shielded twisted pairs and overall shield construction, which helps minimise crosstalk and external interference. The cable’s construction is suitable for high-speed Ethernet applications up to 10GBase-T and supports consistent throughput over extended distances. The yellow jacket improves visibility in conduit runs and patching areas, simplifying installation and maintenance in multi-cable environments.

Suitable for

• Structured cabling for office and data centre networks
• High-speed 10GBase-T ethernet backbones and horizontal runs
• Environments with high electromagnetic interference or dense cable bundles
• Permanent in-wall or conduit installations requiring colour-coding

How to use

Install the Digitus Cat.7A S/FTP cable as part of a structured cabling system by routing the cable through conduits, cable trays or pathways to terminate at keystone jacks or patch panels. Strip the outer jacket and shield carefully to expose the twisted pairs, then terminate each pair with compatible shielded connectors or modules, following the chosen wiring standard (T568A/T568B). Ensure the cable shielding is properly bonded to grounding points to preserve the effectiveness of the S/FTP construction.

Recommendations

Maintain bend radius and avoid sharp kinks during installation; follow manufacturer guidelines for minimum bend radius and maximum pulling tension. Keep separation from high-voltage cables where possible to reduce potential interference. Use appropriate shielded termination hardware and ensure continuity of the shield for optimal performance in 10GBase-T networks.
