Networking Cable ShiverPeaks BS75125-G 15m Cat5e F/UTP

The ShiverPeaks BS75125-G 15m Cat5e F/UTP networking cable is designed for wired Ethernet connections that require reliable performance and basic electromagnetic interference protection. This 15-metre cable supports Cat5e standards and F/UTP (foiled/unshielded twisted pair) construction, enabling data transfer rates up to 1000 Mbit/s over standard Ethernet networks. The cable is terminated with RJ-45 connectors on both ends and comes in a green jacket that makes it easy to identify in patch panels and cabling runs.

Advantages

F/UTP shielding reduces the impact of external electromagnetic interference on signal integrity, improving stability in environments with nearby electrical equipment. The Cat5e specification ensures compatibility with a wide range of network devices while allowing gigabit performance where supported. The 15 m length provides flexibility for connecting devices across medium-distance runs without using additional couplers. Standard RJ-45 connectors ensure plug-and-play compatibility with switches, routers, network cards and patch panels.

Suitable for

• Wired connections between computers, switches and routers within offices and homes
• Patch panel to wall socket cabling in structured cabling installations
• Temporary or permanent network runs where moderate EMI protection is required
• Cable identification in multi-run installations due to the green jacket

Key specifications

• Cable length: 15 metres
• Category: Cat5e
• Shielding: F/UTP (foil shield with unshielded twisted pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 on both ends
• Maximum supported data rate: up to 1000 Mbit/s (Gigabit Ethernet)
• Jacket colour: green

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network port of your device (PC, switch, router or patch panel) and plug the other connector into the corresponding network port on the remote device. For best results, avoid tight bends and kinks along the cable run, and route the cable away from mains power lines or heavy machinery to minimize interference. If you need to shorten or custom-terminate the cable, ensure proper tools and RJ-45 crimping procedures are used to maintain signal quality.

Recommendations

Use this Cat5e F/UTP cable for desktop to switch connections, patching between panels and wall outlets, or temporary setups where clear cable identification is helpful. Inspect connectors for damage before use and replace the cable if the jacket or connectors show signs of wear. For installations requiring higher shielding or bandwidth over longer distances, consider shielded Cat6/6a options.
