25 ft Cat6 SSTP shielded cable

This 25-foot Cat6 cable uses shielded twisted-pair construction rated to 550 MHz. It terminates in gold-plated 8P8C RJ45 connectors on both ends and meets UL and RoHS requirements. The CM-rated PVC jacket encloses 24 AWG stranded bare copper conductors for flexible indoor routing.

Suits runs that need shielding from interference

Builders who need a shielded Cat6 link up to 25 feet will find the SSTP design and 550 MHz bandwidth appropriate for Gigabit Ethernet. Installers requiring plenum-rated jackets, outdoor burial ratings, or lengths beyond 25 feet should select a different cable type.

550 MHz bandwidth sets the performance ceiling

The cable is specified for 550 MHz operation, which determines the maximum signal frequency it can carry reliably. That figure, together with the 24 AWG stranded conductors and gold-plated contacts, defines whether the link meets the required category performance.

Questions about this item

Will the 25 ft Cat6 SSTP cable work with my existing Cat5e patch panel and 100 Mbps switch?

Yes, the Cat6 550 MHz cable is backward compatible with Cat5e infrastructure and 100 Mbps equipment, using the same RJ45 568B wiring and 24 AWG conductors.

How can I verify the 550 MHz Cat6 cable is performing correctly after installation?

Use a cable certifier to confirm the link passes Cat6 550 MHz tests, check for continuity on all 8 pins, and ensure the gold-plated 50 µ" contacts show low resistance.

Does the 25 ft black Cat6 cable include boots and protectors, or must I buy them separately?

The cable comes with molded boots and strain-relief protectors already attached to both RJ45 ends, so no extra parts are needed.
