Network Cable C-TECH CB-PP6F-05B RJ45 Cat6 0.5m Blue

The C-TECH CB-PP6F-05B RJ45 Cat6 0.5m Blue patchcord is a short, shielded network cable intended for point-to-point Ethernet connections. Featuring Cat6 performance and FTP (foil twisted pair) shielding, this 0.5 meter cable provides a compact link between devices where reduced electromagnetic interference and a reliable RJ45 connector are required. The blue jacket and compact length make it suitable for tidy cable runs in crowded racks, desktop setups, or home networking environments.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable combines FTP shielding with standard RJ45 termination to reduce crosstalk and external interference while maintaining backward compatibility with Cat5e and Gigabit Ethernet environments. The half-metre length minimizes excess cable clutter and helps maintain clean installations. The molded boots on the connectors improve strain relief at the termination point, and the blue outer sheath allows easy visual identification among multiple cables.

Suitable for

• Short connections between switches, patch panels and network devices in data racks
• Connecting desktop PCs, routers, modems and network printers
• Home or small office Ethernet links where a compact cable is needed
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference compared to unshielded cables

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat6
• Length: 0.5 m
• Connector type: RJ45 on both ends
• Shielding: FTP (foil twisted pair)
• Color: Blue
• Typical use: Ethernet / data networking

How to use

Insert the RJ45 connector into the network port of each device until it clicks into place, ensuring the connector latch engages for a secure fit. Use the cable to connect devices for Ethernet communication, such as linking a computer to a switch or a router to a patch panel. Avoid sharp bends near the connector and do not subject the cable to excessive tension; maintain gentle routing to preserve shielding and conductor integrity.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, keep the cable length within recommended limits for the intended network standard and avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines. Use appropriate cable management to prevent strain on connectors and to maintain the effectiveness of the FTP shielding.
