Netwerkkabel EFB Elektronik EC020200280 RJ-45 Cat8.1 1,5 m oranje

The EFB Elektronik EC020200280 networking cable is a 1.5 m S/FTP Cat8.1 patch cable with RJ-45 connectors and an orange jacket. It is designed for high-bandwidth local area network connections where low interference and high data throughput are required. The cable construction follows Cat8.1 specifications to support high-frequency signals and maintain signal integrity in short-run, high-speed installations.

Advantages

This Cat8.1 S/FTP cable provides shielding to minimise electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, which helps preserve signal quality in dense or electrically noisy environments. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts improve contact reliability and corrosion resistance for consistent performance over repeated insertions. The 1.5 m length is convenient for patching between equipment in racks, switches and desktop devices while the orange colour simplifies identification and cable management.

Suitable for

• High-speed server-to-switch patching in data centres and server rooms
• Workstation or desktop connections requiring low-latency, high-bandwidth links
• Network test setups and temporary high-performance LAN connections
• Cable routing where visual identification is required for maintenance

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat8.1
• Shielding: S/FTP (overall braid with foil on pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Maximum theoretical data rate: up to 40000 Mbit/s
• Length: 1.5 m
• Colour: Orange

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to the network device (switch, router, NIC) and the other end to the corresponding port on the opposite device. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks to establish a secure mechanical and electrical connection. Use the cable for short-distance, high-speed links consistent with Cat8.1 deployment guidance and avoid excessive bending near the connector to maintain performance. For best results, route the cable away from large sources of electromagnetic noise and avoid sharp kinks.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat8.1 S/FTP cable in short runs (typically within the same rack or between adjacent racks) and in environments where shielding reduces interference. Inspect connectors periodically for debris and replace the cable if the jacket or connector shows visible damage.
