Microconnect B-FTP601G networking cable Green 1 m Cat6 F/UTP (FTP)

The Microconnect B-FTP601G RJ-45 Cat6 1m Green is a 1 metre network cable that connects devices such as switches, modems or routers to each other or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. The cable complies with Cat6 testing up to 250 MHz, supports high data rates (up to 10000 Mbit/s as specified by the manufacturer) and is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 installations. It features F/UTP (B-FTP) shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and a latch protection design to protect the connector during tight installations.

Advantages

The shielded construction (F/UTP / B-FTP) reduces EMI and crosstalk, improving signal integrity in environments with electrical noise. Cat6 performance tested to 250 MHz provides reliable bandwidth for office, home and entertainment networks. Latch protection prevents accidental damage to the RJ‑45 clip when pulling the cable through confined spaces. The 1 m length and green colour make the cable suitable for short links and easy visual identification in patching panels and cable runs.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and modems to patch panels or wall outlets
• Short horizontal links in small office or home networks
• Audio/video and entertainment systems requiring Cat6 performance
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Cable type: RJ-45 to RJ-45 Cat6 (B-FTP / F/UTP shielding)
• Length: 1 m
• Test frequency: up to 250 MHz (Cat6)
• Data rate (manufacturer): up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Compatibility: backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5
• Colour: Green
• Connector latch protection: yes

How to use

Insert one RJ-45 connector into the network device port (switch, router or modem) and the other into the corresponding patch panel jack or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic fields where possible. For rack or patch panel installations, label or place the cable in a designated colour group to simplify identification.

Recommendations

Use the Microconnect B-FTP601G for short permanent or temporary links where Cat6 performance and EMI protection are required. Do not bend the cable beyond its minimum bend radius and avoid pulling on the latch to prevent connector damage.
