Microconnect B-FTP605B networking cable Blue 5 m Cat6 F/UTP (FTP)

The Microconnect B-FTP605B is a 5 m Cat6 networking cable with RJ-45 connectors designed for reliable wired connections between network devices such as switches, routers, modems or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. The cable supports Cat6 performance up to 250 MHz, is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5, and features foil shielding (F/UTP) and latch protection to reduce interference and protect the connector during installation.

Advantages

The shielded construction minimizes electromagnetic interference (EMI) and reduces crosstalk, helping to maintain data integrity and stable transmission rates. Cat6 specification support to 250 MHz and RJ-45 terminations enable high-speed data transfer up to the product’s rated throughput. Latch protection on the connectors prevents damage when routing the cable through tight spaces. The 5 m length and blue color provide a practical option for home and small office setups.

Suitable for

• Wired connections between switches, routers and modems
• Patch panel or keystone jack terminations in structured cabling
• Small office and home network installations
• Networked entertainment devices (set-top boxes, smart TVs, game consoles)

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 connector to a network device (switch, router or modem) and the other to the target device or to a patch panel/keystone jack. Ensure connectors click into place with the latch protection engaged. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic noise where possible. For structured installations, terminate the cable according to the site’s patch panel or wall outlet requirements.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, keep the cable length within the 5 m span for which it is supplied, avoid tightly coiling or kinking the cable, and place it away from heavy electrical equipment that may introduce EMI despite the cable’s shielding.
