The different FTP cables

It may be a piece of cake for you, but we can also imagine that it will make you dizzy in your search for the right FTP cable. This has everything to do with the many different variants and the name change that FTP cabling has undergone. We have listed the 3 types of shielded Internet cables for you.

F / UTP

F / = Foil (foil shielding of the entire cable)
/ U = Unshielded (no shielding of the pairs of wires)
T = Twisted (twisted pairs)
P = Pair (2 cores make 1 core pair)

This is in fact the direct successor to the former FTP cable. The cable is shielded with a foil. This cable is available from us on a roll. View all Internet cable on a roll

U / FTP

U / = Unshielded (no shielding of the entire cable)
/ F = Foil (foil shielding of the pairs of wires)
T = Twisted (twisted pairs)
P = Pair (2 cores make 1 core pair)

Similar to F / UTP, but the wire pairs are shielded (and the overall cable is not). This cable is available from us on a roll. View all network cable on roll

S / FTP

S / = Screened (metal shielding of the entire cable)
/ F = Foil (foil shielding of the pairs of wires)
T = Twisted (twisted pairs)
P = Pair (2 cores make 1 core pair)

This cable is therefore double shielded, which makes it a very suitable FTP cable to prevent interference. That is why we offer S / FTP cables in many colors and lengths, both on the roll and fully plug-and-play.

The funny thing is: an FTP cable no longer exists. But it is also very simple: if you are unsure and looking for a ready-made cable, choose S / FTP.
