Network cable ShiverPeaks 75513-SLW CAT7 U/FTP flat RJ45, shielded, for high-speed Ethernet

ShiverPeaks 75513-SLW CAT7 U/FTP flat RJ45 is a shielded network cable designed for high-speed Ethernet connections. With a slim, flat profile and RJ45 terminations, this cable combines individual pair foil shielding and an overall screened structure to minimise electromagnetic interference and crosstalk in dense cabling environments. It is intended for reliable data transmission on short to medium runs in homes, offices and professional installations where a low-profile, shielded cable is required.

Advantages

The flat design allows discreet routing along walls, under carpets and through narrow gaps while maintaining consistent electrical performance. U/FTP construction (individual pair foil with overall screening) reduces pair-to-pair interference and external noise, supporting stable high-speed Ethernet links. RJ45 connectors provide compatibility with standard network equipment, and the cable's shielding improves signal integrity in areas with potential EMI sources.

Suitable for

• Wired Ethernet connections for home networks and smart home devices
• Office workstations and meeting-room network runs
• Professional audiovisual and streaming setups requiring low-interference links
• Installation routes with limited space where a flat cable is preferable

Key specifications

• Cable category: Category 7 (CAT7)
• Shielding: U/FTP — individual pair foil with overall screen
• Connector type: RJ45 on both ends
• Profile: flat / slim
• Colour: white
• Recommended use: short to medium length Ethernet runs

How to use

Route the flat cable along the chosen path, keeping bends gentle to avoid stressing the internal pairs. Insert RJ45 plugs into compatible Ethernet ports on switches, routers or devices until a secure click is heard. Ensure connectors are fully seated and test the link with network equipment or a cable tester to confirm performance. For wall or under-carpet routing, secure the cable with appropriate clips or channeling to prevent movement and abrasion.

Recommendations

To maintain shielding effectiveness, avoid running the cable in parallel with strong power lines for extended distances. Use proper bend radii and avoid tight folds. For installations near high-interference equipment, ensure connector shields contact grounded metal housings when available to preserve overall screened performance.
