Microconnect UTP620R networking cable Red 20 m Cat6 U/UTP (UTP)

The Microconnect UTP620R is a 20 m Cat6 UTP networking cable with RJ-45 connectors in a red jacket. It supports Cat6 performance up to 250 MHz and is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5, providing a straightforward wired connection between devices such as switches, modems, routers or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. The cable is suitable for small office and home network and entertainment applications and features snagless boots to protect the connector during installation in tight spaces.

Advantages

Provides Cat6-rated transmission up to 250 MHz and supports data rates up to 10 000 Mbit/s. U/UTP construction offers consistent performance for typical LAN environments while maintaining compatibility with older standards. Snagless boots reduce the risk of connector damage during routing and installation. The 20 m length and red colour make it easy to route and visually identify in cabling bundles.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers or modems to endpoints
• Patching between patch panels and wall outlets
• Small office and home networking
• Entertainment systems and media devices

How to use

Route the Microconnect UTP620R between the two network devices or between a device and the structured cabling point. Insert the RJ-45 connectors fully into the corresponding ports on the devices, patch panel or keystone jack until they click into place. Ensure bends respect minimum bend radius for Ethernet cable and avoid tight kinks; secure the cable along its route with appropriate clips or ties without compressing the jacket or connector boot.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid running the cable parallel to power lines for long distances and keep it away from sources of electromagnetic interference. Use the red colour to mark specific circuits or device groups and test connections after installation to confirm link speed and integrity.
