Networking Cable S/CONN RJ45-RJ45 m-m 0.5m ShiverPeaks 75711-H0.5B-SET5

This ShiverPeaks networking cable is a 0.5 m S/FTP (S-STP) patch cable with RJ45 male connectors on both ends designed for Cat6 network installations. The cable uses individually foil-shielded twisted pairs with an overall braid to reduce electromagnetic interference and maintain signal integrity. Gold-plated contacts on the RJ45 plugs improve corrosion resistance and contact reliability, while the blue jacket provides a clear visual identification in patch panels and network runs.

Advantages

The S/FTP (S-STP) construction offers enhanced protection against crosstalk and external EMI compared with unshielded alternatives, supporting stable high-speed data transmission. The Cat6 specification enables performance suitable for gigabit Ethernet and many demanding professional applications. Short 0.5 m length minimizes excess cable clutter in compact setups, and the gold-plated RJ45 contacts increase durability and lower contact resistance for consistent connections.

Suitable for

• Connecting network devices within racks, patch panels, and wall outlets
• Short links between switches, routers, and servers in data cabinets
• Structured cabling endpoints where shielded connections are required
• Home office and small office setups needing reliable gigabit connections

Key specifications

• Cable type: S/FTP (individually foil-shielded twisted pairs with overall braid)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connector type: RJ45 male to RJ45 male
• Standard: Category 6 (Cat6)
• Contact plating: Gold-plated contacts
• Jacket colour: Blue

How to use

Plug each RJ45 connector firmly into the corresponding network ports on devices such as switches, routers, patch panels or network interface cards. Ensure connectors click into place to secure the connection. For shielded installations, confirm that the connected equipment or patch panel provides proper grounding to benefit from the cable's shielding. Avoid sharp bends and kinks near the connectors; maintain the manufacturer's minimum bend radius where possible to preserve signal performance.

Recommendations

Use this 0.5 m Cat6 S/FTP cable for short internal connections where shielding is required to reduce interference. When installing in environments with possible electromagnetic disturbance, pair the cable with properly grounded hardware and maintain tidy cable management to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
