SH-C6-PU-05M Shielded CAT6 Patch Cable (Purple)

5-Meter Shielded Cat6 Patch Cable for Clean, Reliable Data Transfer
The CP Tech SH-C6-PU-05M is a 5-meter purple Cat6 shielded patch cable designed to deliver high-performance Ethernet connectivity while minimizing signal interference. Ideal for commercial IT environments, high-traffic data networks, and AV system installations, this cable supports Gigabit Ethernet and advanced networking applications requiring enhanced signal integrity over longer distances. Its distinctive purple color also helps with cable identification in complex systems.

Shielded Cable Construction Reduces Crosstalk and Interference
Unlike unshielded Ethernet cables, this shielded Cat6 cable features internal foil shielding that helps block electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference. This makes it especially effective in environments with heavy electronic noise, such as near power supplies, lighting systems, or other high-frequency devices. It’s a smart solution for installations where consistent network performance is critical.

550 MHz Bandwidth Supports Gigabit Ethernet and Beyond
Rated for up to 550 MHz, the CP Tech SH-C6-PU-05M supports full-speed Gigabit connections and is backward compatible with Cat5e networks. It handles high-bandwidth data transmission required by modern applications, including cloud services, large file transfers, VoIP, and 1080p+ video streaming. The cable’s construction is tested to meet TIA/EIA standards for Cat6 transmission.

Stranded Bare Copper Wire Improves Flexibility and Conductivity
Constructed with 24 AWG stranded bare copper conductors, this cable offers superior signal quality and physical flexibility. Stranded wire is easier to bend and route in tight spaces, making this cable ideal for patching within racks, furniture channels, or confined networking cabinets. The bare copper core provides consistent conductivity without the risks associated with cheaper CCA alternatives.

Snag-Free Boot Protects the Connector During Installations
Each end of the cable includes a molded snagless boot that prevents latch damage when pulling or repositioning cables in crowded environments. The boot design shields the RJ45 tab and makes it easier to unplug the cable without breaking the latch—especially helpful in patch panel setups or dense switch configurations.

Gold-Plated Contacts Enhance Long-Term Reliability
50-micron gold-plated RJ45 connectors reduce electrical resistance and corrosion, ensuring stable contact and signal clarity over time. These connectors help prevent data loss and support frequent reconnections in dynamic systems or service environments that demand long-term performance and low-maintenance reliability.

Color-Coded for Organized Network Management
The cable's purple jacket is more than aesthetic—it simplifies cable tracing and identification in multi-cable racks, wall plates, and structured cabling systems. This is especially useful in installations requiring multiple data paths or VLAN segmentation, where color coding improves efficiency and serviceability.
