Network cable ShiverPeaks 08-35084 Cat 7 U/UTP RJ45 patch cable, shielded pair, length not specified

ShiverPeaks 08-35084 Cat 7 U/UTP RJ45 patch cable is a shielded-pair network cable designed for high-performance Ethernet connections. As a Category 7 cable with RJ45 terminations, it is intended for installations that require shielded pair wiring and compatibility with Gigabit and higher-speed network equipment. The cable is suitable for connecting switches, routers, patch panels and other network devices in data centers, office environments and home networks where improved protection from electromagnetic interference is needed.

Advantages

The cable combines Category 7 wiring characteristics with RJ45 connectors to provide reliable signal transmission and backward compatibility with existing Ethernet hardware. Shielded pair construction reduces the impact of external electromagnetic interference, improving stability in electrically noisy environments. The use of standard RJ45 terminations simplifies installation and integration into existing network infrastructure without requiring specialized connectors.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting switches, routers and patch panels in LAN and data center racks
• Wired connections for desktop computers, servers and networked peripherals
• Office and home networks where shielded Cat 7 cabling is preferred

Key specifications

• Category: Cat 7 (shielded pair wiring)
• Connector type: RJ45 plugs
• Conductor arrangement: shielded pair (U/UTP indicated)
• Application: Ethernet networking for Gigabit and higher speeds
• Color: red

How to use

Terminate the cable into RJ45 ports on network devices such as switches, routers or patch panels, ensuring secure plug-in until the connector latches. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference; maintain appropriate bend radius as per installation best practices. For rack or structured cabling installations, label both ends to match network documentation and verify connectivity with cable testers or by checking link status on connected devices.

Recommendations

Use the cable in installations that benefit from shielded-pair wiring, such as areas with potential EMI from power equipment or dense cabling. Verify connector compatibility and test link speed after installation to confirm desired network performance.
