Networking Cable ShiverPeaks BS75513-SLV Violet 3 m Cat7 U/FTP

The ShiverPeaks BS75513-SLV Violet 3 m Cat7 U/FTP networking cable provides a 3-metre connection designed for high-speed data transfer in demanding local networks. Constructed to Cat7 specification with U/FTP shielding, the cable minimises electromagnetic interference and crosstalk while supporting robust signal integrity. Fitted with RJ-45 connectors featuring gold-plated contacts, it ensures reliable contact and corrosion resistance. The violet outer jacket offers a distinct visual option for organisation and identification in patch panels and cabling runs.

Advantages

The U/FTP shielding combines an overall foil shield with individually foiled pairs to reduce external noise and pair-to-pair interference, improving performance in dense or electrically noisy environments. Cat7 specification supports higher bandwidth and improved signal quality compared with earlier categories, suitable for high-throughput applications. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors provide stable connectivity and reduce oxidation, while the 3 m length is convenient for desk-to-switch connections and short patch runs. The coloured jacket makes cable management and visual identification straightforward.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers over short to medium distances
• High-bandwidth applications such as video streaming, large file transfers and VoIP
• Structured cabling in home offices, server rooms and professional workspaces
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference where shielded cables are preferred

Key specifications

• Category: Cat7
• Length: 3 m
• Shielding: U/FTP (overall foil with individually foiled pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Jacket colour: Violet

How to use

Insert the RJ-45 connectors into the corresponding ports on your networking devices until they click into place. Ensure connectors are fully seated to maintain optimal contact. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and prolonged compression; maintain bend radius recommendations typical for Ethernet cabling to preserve shielding and conductor integrity. For best results, keep the cable separate from high-voltage power lines and sources of strong electromagnetic interference.

Recommendations

Use this Cat7 U/FTP cable for critical connections where reduced interference and higher bandwidth are required. For permanent installations, verify connector strain relief and secure cable paths; for patching, label both ends for easy identification. If routing near electrical equipment, keep a separation distance to maintain signal quality.
