Shielded Cat 7 Network Cable ShiverPeaks 75500-A+-500S S/FTP, 500 cm length

The Shielded Cat 7 Network Cable ShiverPeaks 75500-A+-500S S/FTP, 500 cm length is a halogen-free, high-performance Ethernet cable designed for demanding wired networks. Its S/FTP (shielded/foil twisted pair) construction combines individual foil shielding around each twisted pair with an overall braid, reducing electromagnetic interference and crosstalk and supporting high-bandwidth transmission up to 1200 MHz. This 500 cm cable is intended for reliable connections in offices, data centers, and professional network installations where shielded cabling is required.

Advantages

The cable's S/FTP structure ensures enhanced protection against external noise and near-end crosstalk, improving signal integrity for high-speed data transmission. Halogen-free materials minimize toxic gas emission in case of fire, increasing safety in enclosed environments. With support for a wide frequency range, the cable is suitable for current and future Ethernet standards and provides stable performance over its 500 cm length.

Suitable for

• Wired LAN connections in office and corporate environments
• Data center patching and rack-to-rack connections
• Professional network installations requiring shielded twisted pair cabling
• High-bandwidth applications such as server uplinks, video streaming, and large file transfers

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat 7 (shielded)
• Shielding: S/FTP — individual foil around pairs plus overall braid
• Bandwidth: up to 1200 MHz
• Length: 500 cm
• Construction: PIMF (pairs in metal foil) with braid
• Material: halogen-free jacket
• Use: suitable for high-speed Ethernet and professional networking

How to use

Strip the outer jacket and prepare individual pairs according to the connector manufacturer's guidelines before termination. Maintain correct pair integrity and follow recommended cable bend radius and pulling tension during installation to preserve performance. For patching, use compatible shielded connectors and ensure the shield is properly grounded to maintain the cable's shielding effectiveness. Route the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources where possible.

Recommendations

For best results, install the cable using shielded RJ45 connectors and ground the cable shield at one point only to avoid ground loops. Keep cable runs within recommended length limits for the specific Ethernet standard in use and avoid sharp bends or kinks to maintain consistent high-speed performance.
