Microconnect B-FTP603R networking cable Red 3 m Cat6 F/UTP (FTP)

The Microconnect B-FTP603R is a 3 m Cat6 networking cable with F/UTP shielding and RJ-45 connectors on both ends. It supports high-speed data transfer up to 10000 Mbit/s and is tested to Cat6 standard frequency of 250 MHz. The cable is red and includes latch protection to reduce the risk of connector damage during installation in tight spaces.

Advantages

F/UTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and helps prevent crosstalk, which preserves signal integrity and reduces transmission errors. Backwards compatibility with Cat5e and Cat5 makes the cable suitable for mixed networks. Latch protection on the RJ-45 plugs protects the clip during routing and installation.

Suitable for

• Wired connections between switches, routers, modems and patch panels
• Small office and home network installations
• Connections to keystone jacks and wall outlets
• Home entertainment systems and networked media devices

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6 (tested up to 250 MHz)
• Shielding: F/UTP (foil overall with unshielded pairs)
• Length: 3 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with latch protection
• Maximum data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Colour: Red
• Weight: 0.068 kg

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network port on your devices, such as a switch, router, modem or wall outlet. Ensure connectors click into place with the latch protection engaged. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and electromagnetic noise sources for optimal performance. The cable is ready to use without additional configuration when connected to compatible network equipment.

Recommendations

For best results, install the cable away from strong EMI sources (large motors, fluorescent lighting or unshielded power cables). Maintain bend radius recommended for Cat6 cables and avoid excessive pulling force during installation. Use shielded patch panels or properly grounded outlets when implementing F/UTP cabling to preserve shielding effectiveness.
