Microconnect B-FTP601W networking cable White 1 m Cat6 F/UTP (FTP)

The Microconnect B-FTP601W RJ-45 Cat6 1m White is a 1 metre shielded networking cable designed for reliable high-speed connections between devices such as switches, modems, routers, patch panels and wall outlets. Compliant with the Cat6 standard and tested up to 250 MHz, the cable supports data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5. The white jacket and RJ-45 connectors make it suitable for home and small office network and entertainment setups.

Advantages

The B-FTP601W features F/UTP shielding that reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and helps prevent crosstalk, which preserves signal integrity and reduces errors. The cable includes latch protection on the RJ-45 connectors to prevent damage when routing through tight installations. Its Cat6 specification and 250 MHz testing ensure higher performance compared with earlier categories while maintaining compatibility with Cat5e and Cat5 devices.

Suitable for

• Connecting routers, switches and modems to network infrastructure
• Patch panel and keystone jack installations
• Home and small office wired network and multimedia setups
• Environments where reduced EMI is required

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end of the Microconnect Cat6 cable to your network device (router, switch or modem) and the other end to the destination port such as a patch panel, keystone jack or another device. Ensure both ends click into place using the connector latch. When routing the cable, avoid sharp bends and excessive tension to preserve shielding and conductor integrity. For installations in confined spaces, the latch protection reduces the risk of connector damage during insertion.

Recommendations

Use the cable for wired connections requiring consistent high-speed performance and reduced EMI. For best results, match the cable category with network equipment that supports Cat6 or higher and avoid running the cable in parallel with large power cables to minimise interference.
