Microconnect B-FTP605 networking cable Grey 5 m Cat6 F/UTP (FTP)

The MicroConnect B-FTP605 RJ-45 Cat6 networking cable (5 m, grey) provides a shielded connection for high-speed data transfer between network devices such as switches, modems, routers or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. Compliant with Cat6 standards and tested up to 250 MHz, the cable is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 and supports data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s. Built-in latch protection reduces the risk of connector damage during installation in tight spaces.

Advantages

This F/UTP-shielded Cat6 cable reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and limits crosstalk, which helps maintain data integrity and stable transmission rates. The 5 m length and RJ-45 to RJ-45 connectors make it suitable for typical home and small office connections. The grey jacket provides a neutral appearance for visible installations, and the lightweight construction (0.13 kg) simplifies handling and routing.

Suitable for

• Connecting routers, modems and switches to patch panels or network outlets
• Small office and home network installations
• Entertainment systems and media devices requiring reliable wired links

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the LAN port of your network device (router, switch, modem) and the other into the destination device or a patch panel/keystone jack. Ensure connectors click securely with the latch protection in place. Route the cable without sharp bends and avoid running it parallel and close to high-power electrical cables to minimise remaining interference. For wall or panel installations, allow slack for future maintenance.

Recommendations

Use this shielded Cat6 cable in environments where EMI could affect signal quality or where improved immunity to crosstalk is required. For long permanent runs in structured cabling, verify that connectors and patch panels also support shielded cabling to maintain shielding continuity.
