Microconnect B-FTP620B Netwerkkabel blauw 20 m Cat6 F/UTP (FTP)

The Microconnect B-FTP620B RJ-45 Cat6 20 m Blue is a 20-meter Ethernet patch cable built to Cat6 specification with F/UTP (B-FTP) shielding. It connects network devices such as switches, routers or modems to patch panels, keystone jacks or wall outlets and is suitable for small office, home network and entertainment setups. The cable is tested up to 250 MHz, is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5, and features RJ-45 connectors with silver plating and latch protection to reduce risk of connector damage during tight installations.

Advantages

The shielded construction (F/UTP) reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, helping to maintain signal integrity and lower error rates. The cable supports high data rates (up to 10000 Mbit/s per the product data) and the Cat6 rating ensures performance up to 250 MHz. Silver-plated RJ-45 contacts improve conductivity, and latch protection helps prevent connector breakage when routing the cable through confined spaces.

Suitable for

• Connecting switches, routers and modems to patch panels or wall outlets
• Small office and home network installations
• Home entertainment systems and wired workstation connections

How to use

Route the Microconnect Cat6 cable between the network devices you want to connect, ensuring connectors are fully inserted into RJ-45 ports until the latch clicks. When installing through tight conduits or patch panels, use the latch-protected ends to reduce the chance of connector damage. Verify link lights on your devices and test connectivity and speed with network diagnostic tools if precise performance confirmation is required.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the shielded cable in close parallel with high-voltage power lines and maintain appropriate bend radius. Use proper grounding where required by your installation to ensure the shielding provides full protection against EMI.
