Network patch cable INTER-TECH CAT5e FTP 0.25 m Green

Shielded network patch cable INTER-TECH CAT5e FTP, 0.25 m, green. This cable is designed for short Ethernet connections where CAT5e performance and compact length are required. The FTP (Foiled Twisted Pair) shielding reduces electromagnetic interference, helping to maintain stable data transmission between devices in crowded or electrically noisy environments. The compact 0.25 m length is suitable for patching inside racks, connecting adjacent ports on switches and routers, or linking devices placed close to each other.

Advantages

The FTP shielding provides additional protection against external electromagnetic interference compared with unshielded variants, improving signal integrity in environments with potential noise sources. The CAT5e specification supports data rates up to 1 Gbps under standard conditions and is widely compatible with common Ethernet equipment. The short 0.25 m length reduces cable clutter and improves airflow in racks or on desktops while the molded connectors and color coding facilitate quick identification and reliable physical connections.

Suitable for

• Patching between adjacent ports on network switches and patch panels
• Connecting routers, modems and networked devices in close proximity
• Short internal connections in server racks and telecommunications cabinets
• Home or office setups where minimal cable length and reduced interference are needed

Key specifications

• Category: CAT5e
• Shielding: FTP (foiled twisted pair)
• Length: 0.25 m
• Color: Green
• Connector type: 8P8C (RJ45) modular plugs
• Data rate capability: up to 1 Gbps (depending on network equipment and environment)
• Intended use: Ethernet patching and short interconnects

How to use

Plug one RJ45 connector into the network port of the source device and the other connector into the destination device. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to secure the connection. Use the cable for short point-to-point connections where a 0.25 m length provides a neat, low-profile link. When routing inside racks or cabinets, avoid sharp bends and avoid placing the cable directly against strong electromagnetic sources if possible to maintain optimal signal quality.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use this CAT5e FTP cable for short-distance patching and intra-rack connections. Verify that connected network equipment supports the expected data rates and that grounding and overall shielding practices in your rack or enclosure are adequate to maximize the benefits of FTP shielding.
