Networking Cable S/CONN 08-64094 Red 20 m Cat6 S/FTP

The ShiverPeaks Networking Cable S/CONN 08-64094 Red 20 m Cat6 S/FTP is a 20-meter Ethernet cable built to meet Cat6 performance requirements with S/FTP shielding. It is intended for wired network connections that require stable throughput and reduced electromagnetic interference. The cable comes in a red jacket and includes RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts to provide reliable contact and corrosion resistance.

Advantages

Shielded construction (S/FTP) limits crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference, supporting consistent data transmissions. Cat6 specification enables higher bandwidth and better signal integrity compared with earlier cable categories. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts improve conductivity and resist oxidation over time, while the 20 m length allows flexible placement of networking equipment without additional couplers. The red outer jacket provides high visibility for cable management and identification in multi-cable environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and patch panels in office and home networks
• Wiring desktop PCs, VoIP phones and network printers
• Temporary or permanent installations where EMI protection is required
• Cable runs that require visible color coding for easy identification

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with individually foil-shielded pairs)
• Length: 20 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Outer jacket color: Red
• Conductor type: Twisted pair copper

How to use

Route the cable between network devices ensuring gentle bends and avoiding tight loops to preserve signal quality. Insert the RJ-45 plugs fully into device ports until they click to establish a secure connection. For permanent installations, secure the cable with appropriate clips or cable ties at intervals to prevent strain on connectors. Verify link status on connected devices and, if necessary, test throughput with a network tester to confirm performance.

Recommendations

Where electromagnetic interference is likely (near power lines, industrial equipment or dense cable bundles), use the cable’s S/FTP shielding orientation to minimize noise. Avoid running the cable parallel and close to high-voltage power lines. For best results in structured cabling, keep patch lengths short at each end and verify that connected hardware supports Cat6 performance levels.
