S/CONN 1m RJ45 networking cable Grey Cat6 S/FTP S-CONN

The S/CONN 1m RJ45 networking cable Grey Cat6 S/FTP S-CONN by ShiverPeaks is a Cat6 patch cable designed for reliable high-speed Ethernet connections. This 1 metre grey cable features S/FTP shielding (screened foil twisted pair) and halogen-free jacket material. It is fitted with gold-plated RJ-45 8/8 plugs on both ends to support consistent signal transmission and reduce contact corrosion. The cable is suited for structured cabling, network patching and short-distance device connections where Cat6 performance and reduced electromagnetic interference are required.

Advantages

The S/FTP shielding provides improved protection against crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference compared with unshielded cables, supporting stable data transfer in environments with multiple adjacent cables or electronic equipment. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts enhance durability and maintain low contact resistance over repeated insertions. The halogen-free outer jacket reduces toxic gas emissions in case of fire and meets safety preferences for office and public environments. The 1 m length balances minimal signal attenuation with tidy cable management for rack, desktop or media cabinet use.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and patch panels in local area networks
• Short patch runs between wall outlets and workstations or network devices
• Environments requiring reduced EMI, such as server rooms or dense cable installations
• Home and small office networks that benefit from Cat6 bandwidth for streaming and file transfer

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6 performance for up to 250 MHz
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid plus individual foil around pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 8P8C plugs with gold-plated contacts
• Length: 1 metre
• Jacket: halogen-free outer sheath
• Color: grey

How to use

Insert the gold-plated RJ-45 plug into the device or patch panel port until it clicks to ensure a secure connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and avoid running parallel to high-power electrical lines to minimize interference. For best performance, keep cable runs within recommended Ethernet distances and use appropriate cable management such as ties or cable organizers to prevent stress on connectors.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6 S/FTP cable for short intra-rack or desk-to-wall connections where shielding and halogen-free material are desired. Test network links after installation to verify link speed and error-free transmission; replace if connectors show wear or if physical damage to the jacket or shielding is found.
