Microconnect B-FTP60025 networking cable Grey 0.25 m Cat6 F/UTP (FTP)

The Microconnect B-FTP60025 RJ-45 Cat6 0.25 m Grey is a short, shielded Ethernet patch cable designed to connect network devices such as switches, modems or routers to each other or to infrastructure points like patch panels, keystone jacks and wall outlets. This Cat6 cable supports the Cat6 standard tested up to 250 MHz and is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5. The cable uses RJ-45 connectors, measures 0.25 m in length and features F/UTP (foil-shielded) construction to reduce electromagnetic interference.

Advantages

The shielded construction reduces EMI and crosstalk, helping to maintain signal integrity and lower error rates during data transmission. Its short 0.25 m length is convenient for tidy connections between closely placed devices, for example between a switch and a patch panel. The cable includes latch protection on the RJ-45 connectors to prevent connector damage during installation in confined spaces. The grey color and compact form factor suit both home and office environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers or modems to a patch panel or wall outlet
• Short interconnections in server racks or network cabinets
• Home and small office network and entertainment setups
• Environments where EMI reduction is important

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network ports on your devices, ensuring the latches click into place. Use this 0.25 m cable for short-distance connections where devices are located close together, such as between a switch and a patch panel or between a router and a wall outlet. Avoid excessive bending or sharp kinks near the connectors to preserve shielding and connector integrity.

Recommendations

For best performance, use shielded ports and grounded equipment when available to fully benefit from the F/UTP shielding. Keep the cable length appropriate for the connection and avoid running it parallel and close to high-power electrical cables to minimize residual interference.
