Network Cable ShiverPeaks 75513-SLB CAT 7 U/FTP Flat RJ45

ShiverPeaks 75513-SLB CAT 7 U/FTP Flat RJ45 is a flat network cable engineered for high-speed Ethernet connections in home and office environments. The cable features four individually foil-shielded pairs (U/FTP) to reduce crosstalk between pairs while maintaining a slim, flexible unshielded outer jacket. Its flat profile and integrated RJ45 connectors make it suitable for routing under carpets, along skirting boards, or through narrow conduits where space is limited.

Advantages

The flat construction minimizes cable height and improves routing flexibility in tight spaces without compromising on signal integrity. Individual foil shielding around each pair helps maintain consistent high-frequency performance and reduces interference from adjacent pairs. Integrated RJ45 connectors provide straightforward plug-and-play compatibility with standard Ethernet ports. The slim design allows for discrete installation along floors and walls with reduced risk of visible bulging or tripping hazards.

Suitable for

• Gigabit and multi-gigabit Ethernet connections within homes and offices
• Routing under carpets and along skirting boards
• Installation in tight conduit runs and behind furniture
• Structured cabling for desktop workstations, network switches, and routers

Key specifications

• Cable category: CAT 7 (Class F) suitable for high-frequency Ethernet
• Shielding: U/FTP — individual foil shielding per twisted pair, overall unshielded jacket
• Connector type: RJ45 plug on both ends for standard Ethernet ports
• Profile: Flat, low-profile for discreet installations
• Color: Blue
• Length: 3.0 m

How to use

Connect each RJ45 plug to the corresponding Ethernet port on your devices such as computers, switches, routers or networked media players. Route the flat cable along the chosen path, keeping it straight where possible and avoiding sharp bends that could stress the conductors. If placing under a carpet or along skirting boards, position the cable so it lies flat to minimize pressure points. For longer-term installations, avoid routing the cable near large sources of electromagnetic interference such as heavy-duty motors or unshielded power cables.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this CAT 7 U/FTP flat cable for connections up to typical horizontal cabling distances (e.g., within a room or between nearby patch panels and switches). Test link speed after installation to confirm negotiated rates and ensure connectors are fully seated. When running multiple cables in parallel, maintain some separation to further reduce potential interference.
