Patch cord FTP DATACOM 1591 RJ45 Cat5e 0.25M Black

The Patch cord FTP DATACOM 1591 RJ45 Cat5e 0.25M Black is a short, shielded Ethernet patch cable designed to provide reliable network connections in constrained spaces. Compliant with Cat5e performance, the cable uses FTP (Foiled Twisted Pair) construction to reduce electromagnetic interference and maintain signal integrity over short runs. The cable is terminated with standard RJ45 connectors on both ends and is suited for linking devices such as switches, patch panels, routers and wall outlets within homes, offices and data closets.

Advantages

This FTP patch cord offers the combination of Cat5e-rated transmission performance and foil shielding to limit crosstalk and external noise. Its 0.25 m length minimizes cable clutter in dense rack or desktop setups and reduces potential signal loss associated with longer runs. The molded RJ45 connectors provide a secure connection and strain relief for frequent plug/unplug cycles. The black jacket delivers a neutral appearance that integrates with most installations.

Suitable for

• Short interconnections between network equipment in racks and cabinets
• Connecting patch panels to switches in wiring closets
• Desktop or office workstation connections where a short cable is required
• Environments where foil shielding helps reduce electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Category: Cat5e
• Shielding: FTP (Foiled Twisted Pair)
• Connector type: RJ45 on both ends
• Length: 0.25 m
• Color: Black
• Suitable for data rates up to typical Cat5e performance (1000BASE-T in short links depending on installation)

How to use

Insert one RJ45 connector into the network port of the source device and the other connector into the target device or patch panel until the latch clicks. For optimal performance, avoid sharp bends near the connector and keep the cable away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference where possible. Use the 0.25 m length for tidy connections in close-proximity equipment; do not attempt to force the cable through overly tight conduits or bend it beyond its minimum bend radius.

Usage recommendations

Use this FTP Cat5e patch cord for short, shielded links where reducing EMI is beneficial. Choose appropriate cable lengths when planning infrastructure to minimize signal reflections and maintain tidy installations. Inspect connectors periodically for damage and replace the cable if the jacket or connector housing shows wear.
