Network cable ShiverPeaks 75711-HW-SET10 CAT6 S/FTP PIMF, 4-pair, shielded

ShiverPeaks 75711-HW-SET10 CAT6 S/FTP PIMF network cable is a shielded, four-pair Ethernet cable designed for structured cabling and local area networks. The S/FTP (shielded overall with foil around each pair) PIMF construction reduces alien crosstalk and provides improved immunity to electromagnetic interference compared with unshielded options. This halogen-free cable is intended for indoor use in office deployments, server rooms and other environments requiring reliable high-speed data transmission over short to medium distances.

Advantages

The cable’s S/FTP PIMF design offers enhanced protection against near-end and far-end crosstalk and helps maintain signal integrity in environments with multiple adjacent cables or electrical noise sources. Being CAT6-rated, it supports gigabit Ethernet and typical structured cabling bandwidths for current office and data centre applications. The halogen-free jacket reduces toxic gas emission in case of fire and the single-metre length and white jacket make it suitable for clean, visible patching in racks and wall outlets.

Suitable for

• Gigabit Ethernet connections between switches, patch panels and workstations
• Patch cable use in server rooms and data cabinets
• Structured cabling installations in offices and commercial buildings
• Environments with elevated electromagnetic interference where shielding is required

Key specifications

• Category: CAT6
• Cable type: S/FTP (overall braid/foil with individually foil-shielded pairs, PIMF)
• Pairs: 4 twisted pairs
• Jacket: halogen-free, white
• Typical length: 1.0 m (single patch cable length as supplied)
• Use: indoor structured cabling and patching

How to use

Use the cable to connect network equipment such as switches, routers, patch panels and endpoints. Insert the RJ45 connectors into the corresponding ports until they click, ensuring that connectors and ports are compatible and wiring orientation follows the installation’s standard (T568A or T568B). Route the cable with gentle bends, avoid sharp kinks and keep it separated from strong electrical sources where possible even though the shielding improves interference resistance. For permanent structured cabling, use the cable as a patch cord rather than a buried horizontal run.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, verify connectors and ports support CAT6 links, test each connection with a network tester after installation, and avoid exceeding recommended bend radius or exposing the cable to moisture. Use shielded grounding practices in installations with multiple shielded cables to preserve the effectiveness of S/FTP shielding.
