Networking Cable ShiverPeaks BS08-35052 5m Cat7 U/UTP Yellow

The ShiverPeaks BS08-35052 5m Cat7 U/UTP Yellow networking cable provides a flexible, high-performance connection for wired Ethernet environments. Designed to support data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s, this Cat7 cable uses U/UTP construction to reduce external electromagnetic interference while maintaining a compact, easy-to-route profile. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure reliable contact and corrosion resistance, and the 5-meter length offers a balance between reach and manageable cable routing in home and office setups. The bright yellow jacket improves visibility and simplifies cable identification in structured cabling installations.

Advantages

The cable supports 10 Gbps Ethernet speeds suitable for bandwidth-intensive applications and uses U/UTP shielding to minimise electromagnetic interference without the bulk of fully shielded cables. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors provide consistent signal transmission and increased contact durability. The PVC jacket delivers flexibility for easy installation through conduits and around furniture while maintaining mechanical protection. The 5 m length is practical for connecting devices across rooms or between network equipment racks.

Suitable for

• High-speed desktop and laptop wired connections
• Home and small office network links
• Connection between routers, switches, and patch panels
• Structured cabling where cable identification is required

Key specifications

• Suitable for frequencies used in 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications
• Flexible PVC jacket for easy routing

How to use

Connect one end of the cable to the RJ-45 port of a network device such as a router, switch, modem, or computer and the other end to the corresponding port of the target device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and areas of potential mechanical stress; maintain gentle cable curves and avoid kinking. For best results, keep the cable separated from heavy power lines to reduce potential interference even though the construction reduces susceptibility to EMI.

Recommendations

Use this Cat7 cable for short to medium runs up to 5 metres where high data throughput and easy identification are important. Inspect connectors periodically for dust or debris and replace the cable if the jacket is damaged. For environments with strong electromagnetic sources or where grounding is required, consider using fully shielded cabling systems and follow local installation standards.
