I Use SFTP(SSH) daily without issue.

Sure IP and port are correct ?  Maybe FW issue. maybe have outbound block on. and MC need to be allowed allowed to connect out ?
Try enable higher loglevel in Core settings.  might output something more.

Mathias (Author):
GetAddrInfo fails with 11001 . and that is HOST_NOT_FOUND.
It fails to resolve IP address
So check your host address.

Mathias (Author):
You do not need to specify protocol like ftps:// 
Just enter host name in hostname field

Also you have ftps:// 
that are normally for FTP with SSL/TLS.  Then you need to use the FTP device in MC
sftp:// is used for FileTransfer over SSH. Then you connect to a SSH connection and do filetransfer using that.
