Microconnect B-FTP510W networking cable White 10 m Cat5e F/UTP (FTP)

The Microconnect B-FTP510W RJ-45 Cat5e 10 m White is a 10-meter networking cable that meets the Cat5e standard. It has RJ-45 connectors on both ends and features F/UTP (foil over unshielded twisted pair) shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference. The cable supports data transfer rates up to 1000 Mbit/s and is compatible with existing Cat5 installations. Its white finish makes it suitable for visible installations in offices and homes.

Advantages

F/UTP shielding provides protection against EMI and reduces crosstalk, improving signal integrity in environments with potential interference. The cable is tested to Cat5e specifications (up to 100 MHz) and is backwards compatible with Cat5. RJ-45 connectors with latch protection reduce the risk of connector damage during installation in tight spaces. The 10 m length offers flexibility for typical office and home network layouts.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, modems or routers to patch panels or wall outlets
• Small office and home network installations
• Networked entertainment devices (smart TVs, media players, game consoles)
• Situations where reduced electromagnetic interference is required

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to a network device such as a switch, modem or router and the other end to a patch panel, keystone jack or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to maintain a stable connection. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and sources of strong interference where possible. For wall or panel installations, use appropriate strain relief or cable management to prevent tension on the connectors.

Recommendations

For best performance, keep cable runs within recommended lengths and avoid running parallel to large power cables. Use the shielded cable where electromagnetic interference is likely (near motors, fluorescent lighting or other electronic equipment). Inspect connectors before installation and replace the cable if the sheath or shielding is damaged.
