Networking Cable S/CONN 08-64072 Yellow 10m Cat6 S/FTP

The ShiverPeaks Networking Cable S/CONN 08-64072 Yellow 10m Cat6 S/FTP is a 10-metre patch cable designed for Ethernet networks that require Cat6 performance and enhanced shielding. The cable uses S/FTP (overall braid with foil-shielded pairs) to reduce electromagnetic interference and is fitted with RJ-45 plugs that have gold-plated contacts for consistent electrical conductivity. The yellow jacket provides clear visual identification in structured cabling installations and makes routing and maintenance tasks easier.

Advantages

This Cat6 S/FTP cable delivers reliable high-speed data transmission suitable for Gigabit Ethernet and other demanding network services. The combination of an overall braid and individually foil-shielded pairs helps protect signal integrity in electrically noisy environments. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts reduce contact resistance and corrosion risk, supporting long-term stable connections. The 10 m length balances reach and manageability for typical office or home installations.

Suitable for

• Gigabit Ethernet connections between switches, routers and endpoints
• Connections in server rooms and data cabinets where shielding is required
• Home office and small business networks requiring reliable wired links
• Structured cabling installations where colour-coding improves cable management

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6
• Shielding type: S/FTP (overall braid with individually foil-shielded pairs)
• Length: 10 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 plugs
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts
• Outer jacket colour: yellow

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network device (switch, router, network card) and the other plug to the corresponding port on the remote device. Ensure that connectors are fully inserted until they click to establish a secure physical connection. For best performance, avoid tight bends and excessive pulling; maintain the specified minimum bend radius for Ethernet cabling. When installing multiple cables, use cable ties or organisers to keep the run tidy and avoid compressing the cable shielding.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6 S/FTP cable in environments with potential electromagnetic interference or where improved crosstalk performance is required. For optimal network performance, pair the cable with Cat6-compliant hardware and test links after installation to verify signal integrity and correct wiring.
