Network Cable C-TECH CB-PP6F-025 Patchcord Cat6 FTP 0.25m Gray

The C-TECH CB-PP6F-025 patchcord is a Cat6 FTP network cable with a length of 0.25 m and a gray jacket. Designed for short connections between networking equipment, it provides the transmission properties of Cat6 cabling and an overall shielded design to reduce electromagnetic interference. The compact length and flexible construction make this cable suitable for high-density racks, patch panels and device-to-switch links where space is limited.

Advantages

The shielded Foiled Twisted Pair (FTP) design improves protection against external interference compared with unshielded cables, helping to maintain signal integrity in environments with nearby electrical equipment. Compliance with Cat6 performance parameters ensures support for higher data rates over short distances, while the short 0.25 m length minimizes cable clutter and latency between adjacent ports. The gray jacket provides a neutral appearance that integrates into most office and data center setups.

Suitable for

• Short links between switches and patch panels in server rooms
• Connections between network devices in office desktop setups
• High-density patching where cable management requires short lengths
• Environments with potential electromagnetic interference where shielding is beneficial

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6
• Shielding: FTP (Foiled Twisted Pair)
• Length: 0.25 m
• Color: Gray
• Connector type: RJ45 on both ends (standard patchcord configuration)

How to use

Connect one RJ45 connector to the source device (for example, a switch or patch panel) and the other connector to the destination device (for example, a server, workstation, or network appliance). Ensure connectors are fully inserted and latched to secure the connection. For best results, route the cable without sharp bends and avoid running it parallel to power cabling for long distances to minimize interference. Because of its short length, this patchcord is intended for direct port-to-port connections rather than long in-wall installations.

Usage recommendations

Use this Cat6 FTP patchcord for short, shielded connections in cabinets and racks. Verify that connected equipment and patch panels are properly grounded when using shielded cables to ensure the shielding functions effectively. Replace the cable if connector damage or visible wear is observed to maintain network reliability.
