Networking Cable ShiverPeaks BS75511-0.5G-SET5 0.5m Cat7 S/FTP

The ShiverPeaks BS75511-0.5G-SET5 0.5m Cat7 S/FTP networking cable is a short patch cable designed for reliable, high-speed wired connections. It features S/FTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts for improved conductivity and corrosion resistance. With a 0.5 metre length and a green jacket, this Cat7 cable is intended for close-proximity connections in home, office, and data cabinet environments where minimal cable slack and clear colour coding are desired.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding combines an overall foil shield with individually shielded pairs to provide enhanced protection against crosstalk and external interference, which helps maintain signal integrity at higher frequencies. The gold-plated RJ-45 contacts offer stable electrical contact and resist oxidation, contributing to longer connector life. The compact 0.5 m length reduces clutter and is suitable for patching between nearby devices or for use in network panels. The cable’s Cat7 specification supports higher bandwidths and improved performance compared with earlier categories.

Suitable for

• Patching between network switches and patch panels in racks or cabinets
• Connecting desktop PCs, servers, NAS devices, or gaming consoles to nearby routers
• Short, tidy connections behind furniture or workstations where a 0.5 m cable is ideal
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference such as offices or small server rooms

Key specifications

• Category: Cat7
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil with individually foiled pairs)
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connector type: RJ-45
• Contacts: Gold-plated
• Colour: Green
• Use case: Patch/patching cable for short-distance connections

How to use

Insert the RJ-45 connectors firmly into the network ports of the devices to be connected until the latch clicks. Ensure both ends are fully seated in the switch, router, patch panel or device port. Route the cable so it is not sharply bent or pinched; maintain gentle curves to preserve shielding and conductor integrity. For best performance, avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines for extended distances.

Recommendations

For optimal signal quality, use this 0.5 m Cat7 S/FTP cable for short links and patch connections within racks, workstations, or between closely situated devices. Inspect connectors occasionally for dust or debris and replace the cable if any visible damage to the jacket or connectors is detected.
