Microconnect STP6005SEXT netwerkkabel zwart 0,5 m Cat6 F/UTP (FTP)

The Microconnect STP6005SEXT RJ-45 Cat6 0.5 m Black is a shielded Category 6 networking cable designed for reliable connections between network devices such as switches, modems and routers, or to infrastructure points like patch panels, keystone jacks and wall outlets. This 0.5 m cable supports data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and is tested to the Cat6 standard frequency of 250 MHz. It is backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 and features latch protection to reduce the risk of connector damage during installation in tight spaces.

Advantages

The cable uses F/UTP shielding to protect against electromagnetic interference (EMI), which helps prevent crosstalk, data errors and reduced transmission speeds. Short length (0.5 m) and RJ-45 connectors on both ends make it suitable for connecting nearby devices with minimal signal loss. The black outer jacket provides a neutral appearance for office and home environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting a router, modem or switch to a nearby device
• Patch panel to switch or wall outlet short links
• Small office and home network and entertainment systems

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat6, tested to 250 MHz
• Data rate: up to 10000 Mbit/s
• Length: 0.5 m
• Shielding: F/UTP (shielded cable)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Colour: Black
• Compatibility: Backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet ports of the devices you wish to connect (for example, between a switch and a router, or from a patch panel to a network device). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection and prevent accidental unplugging. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension that could damage shielding or the connector.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this shielded Cat6 cable in environments with potential electromagnetic interference and for short interconnections under 1 m. Avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines and maintain gentle bend radii to preserve shielding and connector integrity.
