Lindy 47248 networking cable Grey 10 m Cat6 F/UTP (FTP)

The Lindy 10m Cat6 RJ-45 F/UTP Grey networking cable provides a 10-metre connection for wired Ethernet devices. Constructed to meet Cat6 performance, it uses RJ-45 connectors with gold-plated contacts and an F/UTP shielded construction to support stable data transfer at speeds up to 1000 Mbit/s. The grey jacket offers a neutral appearance suitable for office or home installations while the shielding reduces electromagnetic interference for consistent network performance.

Advantages

The F/UTP shielding of this Cat6 cable offers protection against external interference, improving signal integrity in environments with electrical noise. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts enhance conductivity and resist corrosion, ensuring reliable long-term connections. With a 10 m length, the cable provides flexibility in positioning devices without additional adapters or extenders. The cable is compatible with standard 10/100/1000Base-T(X) Ethernet equipment and delivers Gigabit-capable performance for typical network tasks.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs, laptops, and workstations to a router or switch
• Wiring networked printers, NAS devices and media players
• Office or home network installations where a 10 m reach is required
• Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is needed

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port on your devices until a click confirms a secure fit. Use the 10 m cable to route between a switch, router or modem and endpoint devices, avoiding tight bends and excessive tension on the cable. For best performance keep the cable away from high-voltage power lines and sources of strong electromagnetic interference. Test the link speed on connected devices to confirm Gigabit connectivity where supported.

Recommendations

For stable Gigabit performance, ensure both connected devices and network equipment support 1000Base-T. Avoid running the cable parallel to mains power cables for long distances; if crossing is necessary, do so at right angles to minimise interference. Inspect connectors for damage before installation and replace the cable if the jacket or terminations are compromised.
