Microconnect B-FTP601R networking cable Red 1 m Cat6 F/UTP (FTP)

The Microconnect B-FTP601R is a 1 m Cat6 networking cable with RJ-45 connectors, designed for reliable wired connections between devices such as switches, modems and routers or between devices and structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. It supports data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and meets Cat6 performance up to 250 MHz. The cable uses F/UTP (B-FTP) shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 installations. Latch protection on the connectors prevents damage during installations in tight spaces.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable provides shielded construction (F/UTP) to protect against EMI and minimize crosstalk, helping to maintain signal integrity and lower error rates. Tested to Cat6 standard frequencies up to 250 MHz, the cable supports high-speed data transmission up to 10000 Mbit/s. The RJ-45 connectors include latch protection to reduce the risk of connector damage during routing and installation. The cable is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 equipment and is available in a distinctive red color for easy identification.

Suitable for

• Wired connections between switches, routers and modems
• Patch panel, keystone jack and wall outlet terminations
• Small office and home network installations
• Audio/visual and entertainment systems requiring stable wired links

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (switch, router or modem) and the other end to the destination device or to a patch panel, keystone jack or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic noise where possible. For installations in confined spaces, use the latch protection to avoid damaging the connector during insertion.

Recommendations

For best performance, use this shielded Cat6 cable in environments where EMI may be present or where higher frequency operation is required. Maintain separation from high-voltage power lines and follow structured cabling practices when terminating to patch panels or keystone jacks.
