Microconnect B-SFTP605 cable de red gris 5 m Cat6 S/FTP (S-STP)

The Microconnect B-SFTP605 is a 5 m Cat6 networking cable with RJ-45 connectors and S/FTP shielding, designed for reliable wired connections between devices such as switches, modems, routers or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. It supports Cat6 performance up to 250 MHz, is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5, and offers data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s. The cable is grey and equipped with latch protection on the connectors to reduce risk of damage during installations in tight spaces.

Advantages

S/FTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, helping to maintain signal integrity and lower error rates at higher transmission speeds. Cat6 testing up to 250 MHz ensures stable performance for modern home and small office networks as well as entertainment applications. The integrated latch protection protects the RJ-45 plug tab during routing and installation, extending connector life and simplifying handling in confined spaces.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and modems to network infrastructure
• Patch panel and keystone jack installations
• Home and small office wired networks
• High-speed internet and LAN connections for streaming and gaming

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6 (tested up to 250 MHz)
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall foil + individually shielded pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with latch protection
• Length: 5 m
• Maximum data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Colour: Grey
• Weight: 0.1 kg

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (switch, router or modem) and the other end to the target device or to a patch panel, keystone jack or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and strong electromagnetic sources where possible. The shielded design does not change normal RJ-45 connection procedures but may require slightly more space for connector routing where shielding and latch covers are present.

Recommendations

For best performance, keep cable runs within recommended Ethernet lengths, avoid tight bends and running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines. Use shielded patch panels and properly grounded terminations in installations that rely on S/FTP shielding to ensure EMI protection is effective.
