Microconnect B-FTP605R networking cable Red 5 m Cat6 F/UTP (FTP)

The MicroConnect B-FTP605R is a red 5 m RJ-45 Cat6 networking cable with F/UTP shielding, designed for reliable connections between devices such as switches, modems, routers, patch panels, keystone jacks and wall outlets. It supports Cat6 performance up to 250 MHz and is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 standards, enabling use in small office, home networks and entertainment systems while supporting high data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s.

Advantages

The shielded F/UTP construction reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and helps prevent crosstalk that can degrade signals, increase errors and slow transmission. The cable features RJ-45 connectors on both ends and a latch protection design to prevent connector damage during installation in confined spaces. Its 5 m length and red colour make it easy to route and identify within network setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers, modems and patch panels
• Home and small office networks
• Audio/video and entertainment system connections
• Wall outlets and keystone jack installations

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (switch, router or modem) and the other to the destination device or infrastructure point such as a patch panel, keystone jack or wall outlet. Ensure connectors click into place with the latch and avoid bending the cable sharply near the ends. For optimal performance, keep the cable away from strong sources of electrical noise and follow standard installation practices for Cat6 cabling.

Recommendations

Use this shielded Cat6 cable in environments where electromagnetic interference may be present or where higher transmission reliability is required. Maintain bend radius recommended for Cat6 cables and avoid parallel routing with high-voltage power lines to preserve signal integrity.
