Microconnect B-FTP6005B networking cable Blue 0.5 m Cat6 F/UTP (FTP)

The Microconnect B-FTP6005B RJ-45 Cat6 0.5m Blue is a 0.5 m network patch cable manufactured to Cat6 standard with F/UTP shielding. It connects devices such as switches, routers or modems to each other or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. The cable supports data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 systems. It is produced with latch protection to reduce the risk of connector damage during installation in confined spaces.

Advantages

The shielded F/UTP construction reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI), lowering crosstalk and improving signal integrity for stable high-speed transmission up to Cat6 specification (tested to 250 MHz). Short 0.5 m length is convenient for patching in racks, connecting adjacent devices or reducing cable clutter. Latch protection on the RJ-45 plugs preserves the connector during repeated installation and removal.

Suitable for

• Short-distance patching between switches, routers and modems
• Connections between network equipment and patch panels or keystone jacks
• Small office and home network and entertainment setups
• Environments where EMI protection is needed

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network ports on your devices or into a patch panel or wall outlet. Ensure connectors click into place using the latch protection. For best performance, avoid sharp bends and do not stretch the cable; maintain gentle cable routing and secure with cable ties or management panels as needed. Verify link speed and connection status on the connected devices after installation.

Recommendations

The cable is suitable for short patch connections and in installations where EMI shielding is required; avoid using it for long-distance runs beyond standard Ethernet limits and do not expose the cable to excessive mechanical stress or moisture.
