Networking Cable ShiverPeaks BS75113-W 3m Cat5e F/UTP

The ShiverPeaks BS75113-W 3m Cat5e F/UTP networking cable provides a shielded Ethernet connection suitable for standard home and office networks. The cable follows the Cat5e specification and uses F/UTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference, while RJ-45 connectors on both ends allow straightforward plug-and-play installation. With support for data transfer rates up to 1000 Mbit/s, this white 3-meter cable connects devices across moderate distances with reliable performance.

Advantages

F/UTP shielding delivers improved protection against external interference compared with unshielded cables, helping maintain signal integrity in environments with nearby electrical equipment. The Cat5e specification supports gigabit Ethernet for common networking tasks, and the pre-terminated RJ-45 connectors simplify setup without the need for additional tools. The 3 m length balances reach and cable management for desks, computer stations, or small server racks, and the white jacket provides a discreet appearance in light-coloured interiors.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, laptops, switches and routers within homes or small offices
• Wired connections for network printers, NAS devices and media players
• Temporary or semi-permanent cable runs behind desks and entertainment units
• Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is desirable

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat5e
• Shielding: F/UTP (foil shield around all pairs with unshielded pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 on both ends
• Length: 3 meters
• Colour: White
• Maximum supported throughput: up to 1000 Mbit/s (Gigabit Ethernet)

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the network port of the devices you wish to connect, ensuring a secure click to confirm proper seating. Use the 3 m cable to link computers to switches or routers, or to connect networked peripherals such as printers and NAS drives. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and keep it away from large power cables and sources of strong electromagnetic disturbance to preserve performance. If trimming or re-terminating is required, use appropriate tools and follow wiring standards for Cat5e.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid running the cable parallel and close to mains power lines for long distances; maintain gentle bend radii and secure the cable with clips or ties to prevent strain on the RJ-45 connectors. Confirm device network settings support Gigabit speeds if you require maximum throughput.
