LANBERG Cat6 F/UTP (FTP) networking cable 1 m, RJ-45 to RJ-45, Grey

LANBERG Cat6 F/UTP (FTP) networking cable, 1 m length, with RJ-45 connectors on both ends in grey is a shielded straight-through cable designed for wired Ethernet connections in home and office environments. The cable follows the Cat6 standard and supports data rates up to 1250 Mbit/s, providing a reliable physical link between switches, routers, computers and patch panels. The F/UTP (FTP) construction includes an overall foil shield that reduces electromagnetic interference and helps maintain signal integrity over short runs such as patch connections and desk-to-wall links.

Advantages

The shielded F/UTP (FTP) design improves immunity to external noise compared with unshielded cables, which is useful in environments with nearby electrical equipment or bundled cable runs. At 1 m length the LANBERG Cat6 cable is compact and convenient for patch panels, wall outlets and short point-to-point connections. RJ-45 connectors on both ends provide broad compatibility with standard Ethernet ports, and the Cat6 specification ensures support for gigabit networks and lower-latency data transmission within its rated performance.

Suitable for

• Connecting a computer or workstation to a wall outlet or patch panel
• Patching between switch ports in a rack or cabinet
• Short links between router and modem or between network devices on a desktop
• Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is needed

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6
• Shielding: F/UTP (overall foil shield)
• Cable length: 1 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Colour: Grey
• Maximum supported data rate: up to 1250 Mbit/s

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of your device and the other into the wall jack, switch or router port. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. For installation in patch panels or switches, route the cable without sharp bends and avoid tight ties that could deform the cable geometry. The overall foil shield requires proper grounding at the patch panel or connected equipment where applicable to achieve optimal interference suppression.

Recommendations

Use this LANBERG Cat6 F/UTP cable for short patch runs and desktop connections. Avoid exceeding the recommended bend radius and keep the cable separated from high-voltage power lines to preserve signal quality. When installing in shielded rack systems, verify that shields are terminated correctly to ensure effective EMI protection.
