Patch kabel Draka Comteq HP-FTP Cat6 šedý 5 m

The Draka Comteq HP-FTP Cat6 Grey 5m patch cable is a 5-metre network cable designed for structured cabling and device connections in home and office environments. It uses Cat6 performance class wiring with foil-braided F/UTP (FTP) shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and support reliable gigabit data transmission over short to medium distances. The grey jacket provides a neutral appearance suitable for professional installations and visible runs.

Advantages

The F/UTP (FTP) shielded construction limits crosstalk and external electromagnetic interference, improving signal integrity in electrically noisy environments. Cat6 specification supports higher bandwidth and better performance than Cat5e for typical Ethernet applications. A 5 m length offers flexibility for desk-to-switch or patch panel connections without excess cable slack. The cable’s outer sheath is designed to be durable for typical office and home use while maintaining flexibility for routing and cable management.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers, printers and IP phones to switches or patch panels
• Home network runs between routers, switches and media devices
• Small office LAN wiring and patching in server cabinets or wall outlets
• Temporary or permanent cable runs where shielding is required to limit interference

Key specifications

• Category: Cat6 (Class E) performance
• Shielding: F/UTP (foil around all pairs plus overall braid)
• Length: 5 metres
• Color: Grey
• Connector type: RJ45 terminated (standard 8P8C)
• Typical applications: Gigabit Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, PoE
• Jacket: flexible PVC suitable for indoor installations

How to use

Connect one RJ45 terminated end to the network device (for example a computer, IP phone or access point) and the other end to a network switch, router or patch panel port. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and keep it away from high-voltage power cables or sources of strong electromagnetic interference. Use appropriate cable management such as clips, ties or cable trays to secure the cable and maintain signal performance. If using patch panels, ensure connectors are fully seated and test the link with a network tester if verification is required.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat6 F/UTP cable for links up to the intended 5 m length in indoor environments. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and harsh chemicals that can degrade the jacket. When connecting equipment that uses Power over Ethernet (PoE), confirm device compatibility and follow manufacturer power ratings.
