S/CONN Cat6 S/FTP 10m networking cable Yellow

The ShiverPeaks S/CONN Cat6 S/FTP 10m networking cable in yellow provides a category 6 connection designed for reliable wired Ethernet links. The cable uses S/FTP shielding (overall braid plus individually foil-shielded pairs) to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, supporting stable data transmission for home and office networks. It terminates in RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts for corrosion resistance and consistent contact quality. The 10 meter length offers flexibility for connecting devices across rooms or within structured cabling runs while the yellow jacket improves visibility and cable identification.

Advantages

S/FTP construction minimizes external interference and pair-to-pair crosstalk, improving signal integrity for higher-bandwidth applications. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts help maintain low-resistance connections over time. The cable’s Cat6 specification supports gigabit Ethernet and is backward compatible with Cat5e equipment. The bright yellow outer sheath makes routing and identification easier in crowded cable environments.

Suitable for

• Wired gigabit Ethernet connections between switches, routers and endpoints
• Home and small office network installations requiring reduced interference
• Structured cabling where visible color coding simplifies management
• Temporary or permanent links for VoIP phones, NAS, media players and PCs

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid + foil on each pair)
• Length: 10 m
• Connector type: RJ-45
• Contact plating: Gold-plated contacts
• Outer jacket color: Yellow
• Conductor type: Twisted pair copper

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the network device (switch, router or wall outlet) and the other plug to the target device (PC, NAS, IP phone). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable avoiding tight bends and sources of strong electromagnetic noise such as unshielded power transformers; maintain gentle curves with bend radii greater than the cable diameter. For installation through conduit or cable trays, check that the 10 m length and cable diameter are compatible with pathway dimensions.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, pair S/CONN Cat6 cable with shielded connectors and properly grounded equipment in environments with significant EMI. Avoid excessive pulling force during installation and do not exceed manufacturer-recommended bend radius to preserve shielding integrity and transmission characteristics.
