Networking Cable ShiverPeaks BS08-35056 White 5m Cat7 U/UTP

The ShiverPeaks BS08-35056 White 5m Cat7 U/UTP networking cable is a 5-meter Ethernet cable engineered for high-speed wired connections up to 10,000 Mbit/s. It uses Cat7-rated twisted pairs with U/UTP shielding to limit external electromagnetic interference while maintaining full bandwidth for demanding network applications. The cable terminates in gold-plated RJ-45 connectors to ensure consistent contact and reduced corrosion over time, and its white jacket provides a neutral appearance for home or office installations.

Advantages

This Cat7 cable offers high data throughput up to 10 Gbit/s and supports frequencies typical for Category 7 specifications, allowing stable performance for large file transfers, streaming, and latency-sensitive tasks. The U/UTP shielding reduces crosstalk and external noise without adding bulky armor, preserving flexibility for routing and cable management. Gold-plated RJ-45 plugs improve electrical contact and durability, and the 5-meter length balances reach with minimal excess cable in typical room-to-room connections.

Suitable for

• Wired LAN connections between routers, switches, and endpoints
• High-definition video streaming and media servers
• Online gaming and low-latency applications
• Small office and home office (SOHO) networking
• Temporary or semi-permanent installations where a 5 m cable length is suitable

Key specifications

• Category: Cat7
• Length: 5 meters
• Shielding: U/UTP (overall foil shielding with unshielded twisted pairs)
• Maximum data rate: up to 10,000 Mbit/s (10 Gbit/s)
• Connector: RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Jacket color: white

How to use

Connect one end of the cable to the RJ-45 port of your router, switch, modem or network interface on a PC, and the other end to the corresponding port on the target device. Ensure connectors click securely into place to establish a firm electrical connection. Route the cable to avoid tight bends, sharp edges and sources of strong electromagnetic interference such as heavy machinery or unshielded power bundles. For best performance, avoid excessive stretching and pinching of the cable during installation.

Recommendations

Use the cable for fixed or semi-fixed installations within its 5 m length; for longer runs, select an appropriately longer Cat7 or higher-rated cable. When installing near potential interference sources, maintain separation or use additional routing techniques to preserve signal quality. Periodically inspect connectors for debris and ensure contacts remain clean to sustain reliable throughput.
