Microconnect B-FTP6005P verkkokaapeli violetti 0,5 m Cat6 F/UTP (FTP)

The Microconnect B-FTP6005P is a 0.5 m Cat6 networking cable with F/UTP (foil over twisted pairs) shielding and RJ-45 connectors on both ends. It supports data transfer rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5. The cable is designed for reliable connections between devices such as switches, modems, routers or to structured cabling via patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets. It is produced with latch protection to reduce the risk of connector damage during installation and the shielding reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) to maintain signal integrity.

Advantages

The shielded F/UTP construction reduces EMI and crosstalk, helping to preserve data integrity and stable transmission speeds. Cat6 performance tested up to 250 MHz provides headroom for high-speed applications, while backward compatibility with Cat5e/Cat5 ensures interoperability with existing infrastructure. The short 0.5 m length and flexible design make it suitable for tidy connections in patching and close‑range device linking; the latch protection helps prevent connector breakage during tight installations.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Connecting switches, routers or modems to nearby network ports
• Patching between patch panel and network devices in racks or cabinets
• Short runs in home or small office networks and entertainment setups
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6 (tested up to 250 MHz)
• Shielding: F/UTP (foil shield over twisted pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 — both ends
• Length: 0.5 m
• Rated speed: up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Colour: Purple
• Latch protection: Yes
• Compatibility: Backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5

How to use

Plug the RJ-45 connector firmly into the network port of your device and the corresponding port on the patch panel, keystone jack or another device. Ensure the latch clicks into place to secure the connection. For best signal performance, avoid tight bends and kinks; keep the cable run within recommended bend radius and away from strong sources of electrical noise when possible. The short 0.5 m length is intended for close connections such as patching or linking adjacent devices.

Recommendations

Use the Microconnect B-FTP6005P for short, high‑integrity connections where shielding is beneficial; select longer Cat6 shielded cables if greater distance between devices is required.
