Microconnect B-FTP610R networking cable Red 10 m Cat6 F/UTP (FTP)

MicroConnect B-FTP610R RJ-45 Cat6 10 m Red is a shielded Cat6 patch cable designed for reliable wired connections between network devices such as switches, modems, routers or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. The 10 m cable supports Cat6 performance up to 250 MHz and data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s. It has RJ-45 connectors on both ends, a red jacket for easy identification and an integrated latch protection to reduce risk of connector damage during tight installations.

Advantages

The F/UTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and helps prevent crosstalk that can degrade data and increase transmission errors. Backwards compatibility with Cat5e and Cat5 makes the cable suitable for mixed networks. Latch protection on the RJ-45 plugs protects the connector tab when routing the cable through confined spaces. The 10 m length provides flexibility for office and home setups while the red colour aids visual cable management.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and modems to network infrastructure
• Patch panel or keystone jack connections in structured cabling
• Home and small office networks
• AV and entertainment systems requiring wired Ethernet

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6 (tested up to 250 MHz)
• Shielding: F/UTP (foil screened, overall)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Length: 10 m
• Maximum data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s (depending on network equipment)
• Colour: Red
• Weight: 0.178 kg

How to use

Route the MicroConnect Cat6 cable between the two devices or between a device and a wall plate/patch panel, ensuring both RJ-45 connectors seat fully into the ports until the latch clicks. Avoid sharp bends and do not exceed the recommended bend radius to preserve signal integrity. When installing through tight spaces, the latch protection reduces the chance of tab breakage; still handle the connectors gently during insertion and removal.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the cable within structured cabling guidelines: avoid running parallel to mains power cables for long distances, limit excessive bending or kinking, and use compatible Cat6-capable network equipment to achieve the highest data rates.
