Microconnect B-FTP60025P networking cable Purple 0.25 m Cat6 F/UTP (FTP)

The MicroConnect B-FTP60025P RJ-45 Cat6 0.25 m Purple is a shielded Cat6 patch cable designed for short network connections between devices such as switches, modems, routers or wall outlets and patch panels. At 0.25 m length, it supports Cat6 performance up to 250 MHz and data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s while remaining backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5. The cable includes latch protection to reduce the risk of connector damage during installation in confined spaces and uses F/UTP shielding to limit electromagnetic interference (EMI).

Advantages

The cable's Cat6 construction offers tested performance to 250 MHz and high data throughput up to 10000 Mbit/s. F/UTP shielding reduces EMI and crosstalk, improving signal integrity and reducing errors. Latch-protected RJ-45 connectors prevent accidental tab breakage during installation. The short 0.25 m length is suitable for tidy connections in racks or between closely positioned devices, and the purple colour helps with visual identification of network runs.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between network devices (switch to patch panel, router to modem)
• Small office and home network setups
• Server racks and equipment cabinets where space is limited
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end of the MicroConnect B-FTP60025P to a network device and the other end to the corresponding port on the second device, patch panel or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks into place. For best performance, avoid kinking the cable or bending it sharply near the connectors. Use the short 0.25 m length for near‑device connections to minimize cable slack and maintain an organized setup.

Recommendations

Use this shielded Cat6 cable in environments where EMI is a concern or where short, reliable patch connections are needed. Avoid running the cable in direct parallel with high‑voltage power lines; if routing near other cables, maintain reasonable separation to preserve signal quality.
