Networking Cable ShiverPeaks BS75511-0.25B-SET5

The ShiverPeaks BS75511-0.25B-SET5 is a 0.25 m Cat7 networking cable designed for short-distance connections where high signal integrity and shielding are required. This blue cable features S/FTP shielding to minimize crosstalk and external interference, and RJ-45 connectors with copper plating to provide reliable contact and low resistance for fast data transmission. It is intended for use in patch panels, switches, routers and directly between networked devices where a compact, high-performance connection is needed.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding offers enhanced protection against electromagnetic interference and near-end crosstalk compared with unshielded cables, which helps maintain stable throughput in dense cabling environments. The Cat7 specification supports higher bandwidths and improved performance for modern network standards. With a short 0.25 m length, the cable reduces signal attenuation and clutter within server racks or desktop setups. Copper-plated RJ-45 contacts ensure consistent conductivity and secure mating with standard Ethernet ports.

Suitable for

• Patch connections between switches and patch panels in networking racks
• Short link connections between routers, switches and networked devices
• High-speed Ethernet setups requiring shielded cabling in mildly noisy electromagnetic environments
• Desktop or server-side connections where minimal cable slack and tidy routing are desired

Key specifications

• Category: Cat7
• Length: 0.25 m
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually foil‑shielded pairs)
• Connector type: RJ-45 on both ends
• Conductor finish: copper-plated contacts
• Color: blue

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector firmly into the corresponding Ethernet port until it clicks, ensuring proper orientation and contact. Use the cable for direct device-to-device links, short patch panel connections or between nearby network devices in a rack. Avoid excessive bending near the connectors and maintain gentle curves to preserve the integrity of the shielding and conductor alignment. For installations within shielded systems, ensure proper grounding of connected equipment to obtain the full benefit of S/FTP shielding.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this short Cat7 cable for connections under 1 metre where minimal signal loss and reduced cable clutter are priorities. Avoid routing the cable alongside high-power lines and maintain recommended bend radii. In shielded installations, verify that both ends of the link are grounded or connected to grounded equipment to reduce EMI.
