Microconnect B-FTP503S netwerkkabel zwart 3 m Cat5e F/UTP (FTP)

The MicroConnect B-FTP503S is a 3 m Cat5e networking cable with RJ-45 connectors designed for reliable data transfer up to Cat5e standard frequencies (tested to 100 MHz). The cable supports data rates up to 1000 Mbit/s and features F/UTP (B-FTP) shielding and latch protection to preserve connector integrity during installation in confined spaces. Its black design suits office, residential and equipment-rack environments while the shielding helps reduce electromagnetic interference for a stable connection.

Advantages

The shielded B-FTP construction reduces EMI and crosstalk compared with unshielded Cat5e cables, helping maintain signal integrity and lower error rates. Latch protection on the RJ-45 plugs prevents accidental clip breakage during routing and installation. Backwards compatibility with Cat5 ensures interoperability with existing network equipment, and the 3 m length provides a convenient reach between devices.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and modems to patch panels or wall outlets
• Small office and home network connections
• Audio/video and entertainment system wiring
• Environments where EMI reduction is required

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the appropriate network ports on your devices, such as switch, router, modem or wall jack. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and heavy compression; use cable management accessories if installed in racks or conduits. The latch protection reduces the risk of clip damage when pulling the cable through tight spaces.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, keep cable runs below recommended maximum lengths for Ethernet standards, avoid running parallel to high-voltage power lines, and use the shielded cable termination into metal patch panels or shielded keystone jacks where possible to preserve shielding continuity.
