What does this installation cable do and when do you need it?

An installation cable is used for fixed cabling in buildings, such as running a network connection through walls, floors or ceilings. This Cat.7 cable from LogiLink Professional is intended for situations where you want to install a permanent, wired network infrastructure instead of relying on a wireless connection. Think of a home office, business premises or server room where you want to establish a stable and fast connection.

Why this length and these specifications?

At a length of 10 metres, this cable is suitable for shorter runs within a single room or between adjoining rooms. Cat.7 supports a bandwidth of up to 600 MHz, which provides headroom for demanding network applications. Important to know: Cat.7 performance applies up to a maximum cable length of 70 metres, so this 10-metre version is well within the specifications.

Honest about the shielding and conductor

This cable has S/FTP shielding, which means that each individual wire pair is enclosed in its own foil shield, and the entire cable is surrounded by a braided screen. That makes it particularly suitable for environments with electromagnetic interference, such as near machinery or electrical installations. The conductor is made of CCA (copper-clad aluminium), which is lighter and cheaper than solid copper, but also has slightly higher resistance — take this into account for professional installations with specific requirements.

Practical tip: sheath and fire rating

The LSZH sheath (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) produces less smoke and no halogen gases in a fire, which is relevant for installations in enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces. This cable complies with EN50575 and EN50399 and has a Euro fire class of Eca. For the connection, you need connectors suitable for Cat.7 with S/FTP shielding, such as a GG45 or TERA plug.
