Networking cable Alantec KKS6CZA1.0 Cat6 F/UTP (FTP) Black 1 m RJ-45–RJ-45

Alantec KKS6CZA1.0 Cat6 F/UTP (FTP) Black 1 m RJ-45–RJ-45 is a 1 metre Ethernet patch cable intended for standard Cat6 installations. The cable features foil-shielded pairs (F/UTP / FTP) and factory-terminated RJ‑45 connectors on both ends, providing reliable electrical contact for data transmission in home and office networks. It is suitable for short patch connections between switches, routers, network outlets and endpoint devices where Cat6 performance and extra protection against electromagnetic interference are required.

Advantages

The foil shielding reduces susceptibility to external electromagnetic interference, improving signal integrity in environments with nearby electrical equipment or bundled cables. Factory-terminated RJ‑45 plugs ensure consistent contact quality and ease of deployment without the need for on-site termination. The 1 m length offers a tidy, low-latency connection for rack, patch panel or desktop setups while the Cat6 specification supports higher bandwidths and improved crosstalk performance compared with lower-category cables.

Suitable for

• Patching between switches, patch panels and wall outlets in small office or home networks
• Connecting routers, modems and networked computers at short distances
• Linking network devices where foil shielding is preferred for EMI protection
• Clean desk or equipment rack installations requiring short, managed cable runs

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6
• Shielding type: F/UTP (FTP) — overall foil with unshielded twisted pairs
• Length: 1 metre
• Connector type: RJ-45 to RJ-45, factory terminated
• Color: Black
• Intended use: Patch/patch-panel and subscriber connections

How to use

Connect one RJ‑45 plug to the network port of a switch, router, patch panel or wall outlet and the other RJ‑45 plug to the target device such as a computer, IP phone or access point. Ensure that both connected devices support the desired Ethernet speed, and route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain on the connectors. For best performance, avoid tight bundling with high-voltage power lines and maintain recommended bend radius for twisted-pair cables.

Usage recommendations

For reliable Cat6 performance, use this cable for short patch runs and organized rack or desktop layouts. When installing multiple cables, keep data and power lines separated to minimise interference and label both ends to simplify maintenance and troubleshooting.
