Microconnect B-FTP620R networking cable Red 20 m Cat6 F/UTP (FTP)

The Microconnect B-FTP620R is a 20 m Cat6 networking cable with RJ-45 connectors and F/UTP (foil) shielding. It supports data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is tested to the Cat6 frequency of 250 MHz. The red cable is suitable for structured cabling through patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets and for direct device-to-device connections between switches, routers and modems in home and small office networks.

Advantages

This shielded Cat6 cable reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, helping to maintain signal integrity and lower error rates. The cable is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 systems and is fitted with latch protection to prevent damage to the RJ-45 connector during installation in confined spaces. Its 20 m length and bright red colour make it easy to route and identify within an installation.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and modems
• Patch panel and keystone jack installations
• Home networks and small office setups
• Audio/video and entertainment network connections

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (switch, router or modem) and the other end to the target device, patch panel or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks; the cable includes latch protection to reduce connector damage during routing through tight spaces. Route the cable away from strong sources of interference where possible and secure it with appropriate cable management accessories.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the Microconnect B-FTP620R in installations where EMI or crosstalk may affect unshielded cables, and avoid sharp bends or excessive pulling force during installation. The cable is recommended for structured cabling and device interconnections in home and small office environments.
