Microconnect MPK420 netwerkkabel grijs 0,2 m Cat5e F/UTP (FTP)

The Microconnect MPK420 is a 0.2 m Cat5e networking cable with F/UTP shielding and RJ-45 connectors designed for structured cabling. Its compact length and grey colour make it suitable for short connections in patch panels, network switches or between nearby devices while reducing electromagnetic interference thanks to the foil shield.

Advantages

F/UTP shielding reduces external interference, supporting reliable data transmission at Cat5e performance. The short 0.2 m length minimises cable clutter in dense installations. Standard RJ-45 connectors ensure compatibility with common Ethernet ports, and the grey jacket provides a neutral appearance for professional environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting patch panels and switches in server racks
• Short links between network devices in confined spaces
• Structured cabling where Cat5e performance and EMI protection are required

Ensure connectors are fully inserted and secured. Use the cable for short-distance links; avoid stressing the connectors or bending the cable sharply to maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the MPK420 within structured cabling runs under 0.2 m and avoid routing it alongside high-power electrical cables. Inspect connectors before installation and replace if pins are damaged or corroded.
