Microconnect B-FTP610B networking cable Blue 10 m Cat6 F/UTP (FTP)

The Microconnect B-FTP610B is a 10 m Cat6 networking cable with F/UTP (foil over twisted pairs) shielding and RJ-45 connectors on both ends. It supports Cat6 standard testing up to 250 MHz and is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5, providing a reliable wired connection between devices such as switches, modems, routers and network infrastructure elements like patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. The cable is blue and designed for use in small office, home network and entertainment installations.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable includes F/UTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) and minimize crosstalk, which helps maintain data integrity and reduces transmission errors. The cable meets Cat6 performance up to 250 MHz, is backward compatible with Cat5e/Cat5, and features latch protection on the RJ-45 connectors to prevent damage during installation in confined spaces. It supports high data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s as specified by the product data.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers or modems to patch panels or wall outlets
• Small office and home network installations
• Entertainment systems requiring stable wired connections
• Environments where reduced EMI and crosstalk are important

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6 (tested up to 250 MHz)
• Length: 10 m
• Shielding: F/UTP (foil over twisted pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 — both ends
• Data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s (product data)
• Colour: Blue
• Weight: 0.18 kg

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end of the cable to your network device (switch, router or modem) and the other end to the destination device, patch panel or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch engages. Route the cable avoiding sharp bends and sources of strong electromagnetic interference; secure the cable with appropriate clips or ties to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this shielded Cat6 cable in environments with potential EMI (near power supplies, fluorescent lighting or large electrical equipment). Verify connector seating and avoid excessive bending radii; for permanent installations, test the link after installation to confirm expected throughput and signal integrity.
