Microconnect B-UTP605 networking cable Grey 5 m Cat6 U/UTP (UTP)

The Microconnect B-UTP605 is a 5 m grey networking cable with RJ-45 connectors designed to connect devices such as switches, modems or routers to each other or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. Compliant with the Cat6 standard and tested up to 250 MHz, the cable supports reliable data transmission and is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 installations. It features U/UTP construction and latch protection on the connectors to reduce the risk of damage during installation in tight spaces.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable provides tested performance up to 250 MHz and supports common Ethernet standards for stable network connectivity. U/UTP shielding helps maintain signal integrity for high-speed data transfer, while the integrated latch protection prevents connector damage during routing and installation. The 5 m length and grey colour make it suitable for typical office and home setups where a discreet, mid-range cable run is required.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, modems, routers and network devices
• Patch panel and keystone jack terminations
• Home networks and small office Ethernet installations
• Entertainment setups requiring a wired connection (smart TVs, game consoles, media players)

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the network ports of the devices you wish to connect (for example, from a router to a switch or from a switch to a PC). For structured installations, connect one end to a patch panel or keystone jack and the other end to the corresponding device or wall outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension which can degrade performance.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, keep runs within recommended lengths for Ethernet, avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines, and use proper cable management to prevent strain on the connectors. Use Cat6-rated patch panels and keystone jacks to maintain the Cat6 performance across the installation.
