Network cable ShiverPeaks 08-35481 Cat 7 U/UTP RJ45 patch cable

ShiverPeaks 08-35481 Cat 7 U/UTP RJ45 patch cable is a wired Ethernet cable designed for high-bandwidth local area network connections. As a Category 7 cable it provides support for higher frequency ranges and improved overall transmission performance compared to lower categories. The U/UTP construction indicates twisted pairs with an overall braid or foil, intended for typical office, data center and home network environments where reliable gigabit and multi-gigabit links are required. The product is supplied as a patch cable with molded RJ45 plugs for easy connection to switches, routers, patch panels and network devices.

Advantages

The cable offers enhanced bandwidth capacity and consistent signal integrity across short to medium patch runs, enabling stable high-speed Ethernet connections. Its Cat 7 specification supports higher frequencies which can reduce crosstalk and maintain data throughput in structured cabling setups. Molded RJ45 connectors provide secure termination and simplified installation while the U/UTP design balances performance with typical unshielded deployment requirements.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and patch panels in LANs
• High-speed workstation and server connections in offices
• Patch cabling in data centers and comms rooms
• Structured cabling where Cat 7 performance is desired

Key specifications

• Category: Cat 7
• Conductor type: twisted pair configuration with overall braid/foil (U/UTP)
• Connector: RJ45 molded plugs
• Application: Ethernet patch cable for LAN and data center use
• Color: blue
• Length: 30 m

How to use

Route the cable between network devices ensuring gentle bends and avoiding sharp kinks. Plug the RJ45 connector into the Ethernet port until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Use appropriate cable management and avoid running parallel to strong electromagnetic sources such as power lines to minimize interference. For permanent structured installations, verify link speed and performance with network testing tools after connecting.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the Cat 7 patch cable for short to medium patch runs within racks or between equipment where higher bandwidth and reduced crosstalk are required. When installing in mixed environments, ensure connectors and network hardware support the intended link speeds; avoid excessive bending radius and protect terminations from mechanical stress.
