Network Cable ShiverPeaks 08-35045 Cat 7 U/UTP RJ45 patch cable

ShiverPeaks 08-35045 Cat 7 U/UTP RJ45 patch cable is a 3 m network cable designed to deliver high-frequency, high-bandwidth wired Ethernet connections for local area networks, server rooms and professional installations. The cable features unshielded twisted pairs with an overall foil (U/UTP) and an RJ45 connector terminated for straightforward patching between switches, servers and workstations. Its Category 7 characteristics enable support for higher data rates and improved signal integrity compared with lower-category cables.

Advantages

This Cat 7 U/UTP patch cable combines a standardized RJ45 termination with a cable structure that supports elevated frequency transmission, offering reliable connectivity in structured cabling and point-to-point links. The overall foil provides an additional barrier against external electromagnetic interference for better performance in typical office and data-centre environments. The 3 m length balances reach and tidiness for rack-to-edge connections while maintaining consistent electrical characteristics required for high-speed Ethernet.

Suitable for

• Patch connections between network switches and servers in racks
• Workstation to wall outlet or patch panel links in office LANs
• Short backbone runs and interconnects in wiring closets
• Environments requiring Cat 7 performance for high-bandwidth applications

Key specifications

• Category: Cat 7 (high-frequency Ethernet cabling)
• Construction: U/UTP — unshielded twisted pairs with overall foil
• Connector type: RJ45 on both ends
• Length: 3 m
• Color: black
• Suitable for high-bandwidth LAN and data-centre patching

How to use

Connect the RJ45 plugs to the corresponding ports on switches, patch panels, servers or network outlets, ensuring a firm, fully inserted connection. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference; secure with Velcro or cable management clips to maintain tidy runs and prevent strain on connectors. For best performance, verify link status on connected devices and use appropriate network settings for the intended Ethernet speed.

Recommendations

Use the cable for short to medium patch runs where Cat 7 performance is required. Avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines and maintain recommended bend radii. Periodically inspect terminations in high-traffic areas to ensure continued reliable connectivity.
