Networking Cable ShiverPeaks BS75711-H0.25Y 0.25m Cat6 S/FTP

The ShiverPeaks BS75711-H0.25Y Cat6 networking cable is a short 0.25 m patch lead designed for shielded Ethernet connections. It uses S/FTP cable construction to reduce electromagnetic interference and maintain signal integrity in congested cabling environments. Both ends are fitted with RJ-45 plugs with gold-plated contacts to improve conductivity and resist corrosion. The bright yellow jacket improves visibility and makes cable routing and identification simpler within racks, patch panels, and desktop setups.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding provides improved protection against crosstalk and external interference compared with unshielded cable types, supporting clearer data transmission in mixed-equipment environments. The gold-plated RJ-45 contacts enhance electrical contact quality and durability over repeated insertions. The compact 0.25 m length minimises excess slack and is useful for short interconnections where a tidy, reliable connection is required. The yellow jacket aids quick visual identification and reduces the risk of accidental disconnection when multiple cables are present.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between adjacent network devices or ports
• Connections in dense rack or patch panel configurations
• Workstation or desktop network links where minimal cable length is needed
• Environments requiring shielded Cat6 performance to reduce interference

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with individually foil-shielded pairs)
• Length: 0.25 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Contact plating: Gold-plated contacts
• Jacket colour: Yellow
• Designed for: Gigabit Ethernet and above within Cat6 performance limits

How to use

Plug an RJ-45 connector into the network port of each device or into the corresponding patch panel port. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Use the 0.25 m cable to bridge adjacent ports or to create tidy short runs that avoid excess cabling. For optimal performance, avoid sharp bends near the connector and keep the cable routed away from heavy sources of electromagnetic noise when possible.

Recommendations

Use this short Cat6 S/FTP patch cable for direct, short-distance links—especially in patch panels, switches, and densely packed racks—where shielded cabling helps maintain signal quality. Match the cable length to the port spacing to reduce clutter and stress on connectors.
