Lindy 47242 networking cable Grey 1 m Cat6 F/UTP (FTP)

The Lindy Cat6 Networking Cable 1m (Grey) is an assembled F/UTP patch cable designed for 10/100/1000Base-T(X) networks. It uses Category 6 cabling with 26 AWG conductors in four pairs and features shielded RJ45 connectors with gold-plated contacts to ensure reliable signal transmission and reduced interference.

Advantages

The F/UTP shielding minimizes electromagnetic interference while Category 6 construction and 26 AWG conductors support gigabit data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s. Shielded, snagless RJ45 connectors with gold-plated contacts provide stable connections and improved conductivity. The 1 m length and grey colour make the cable suitable for patching in racks, desks, and short interconnects.

Suitable for

• Patching between switches and patch panels
• Connecting computers, routers and network devices at short distances
• Office or home LAN installations requiring Gigabit Ethernet

Key specifications

• Standard: 10/100/1000Base-T(X)
• Category: Cat6
• Conductor: 26 AWG, 4 pairs
• Shielding: F/UTP (foil-shielded twisted pair)
• Connectors: Shielded RJ45, snagless, gold-plated contacts
• Length: 1 m
• Colour: Grey

How to use

Insert each RJ45 connector into the corresponding network port until it clicks to establish a secure connection. Use the cable for patching between network equipment such as switches, patch panels, routers and PCs. Avoid sharp bends near the connector and keep the cable away from strong sources of electromagnetic noise to maintain signal quality.

Recommendations

For best results, use the cable in environments compatible with shielded cabling practices — connect connector shields to grounded equipment or chassis where available. Do not exceed the recommended installation bend radius and replace the cable if connector damage or severe wear is observed.
